1. Whoever walks without fault; who does what is just and speaks the truth from his heart; whoever does not slander with his tongue.

HOMILY

NICENE CREED

I believe in one God, the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible and invisible. I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Only Begotten Son of God, born of the Father before all ages. God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father; through him all things were made. For us men and for our salvation he came down from heaven, and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary, and became man. For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate, he suffered death and was buried, and rose again on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures. He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead and his kingdom will have no end. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified, who has spoken through the prophets. I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church. I confess one Baptism for the forgiveness of sins and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come. Amen.

LITURGY OF THE EUCHARIST

PRESENTATION OF THE GIFTS |Prayer of Saint Francis Sebastian Temple

EUCHARISTIC PRAYER  The Lord be with you. All: And with your spirit.  Lift up your hearts. All: We lift them up to the Lord.  Let us give thanks to the Lord our God. All: It is right and just. SANCTUS | Mass of the Angels and Saints Steven Janco

MEMORIAL ACCLAMATION | Mass of the Angels and Saints Steven Janco

AMEN | Mass of the Angels and Saints Steven Janco

THE LORD'S PRAYER Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name; thy kingdom come; thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil. For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours now and forever. Amen.

THE EXCHANGE OF PEACE  The peace of the Lord be with you always. All: And with your spirit.

AGNUS DEI | Mass of the Angels and Saints Steven Janco

SPIRITUAL COMMUNION

It is a long-held Catholic belief that when circumstances prevent one from receiving Holy Communion, it is possible to make an “Act of Spiritual Communion.” During this time when we are not able to celebrate the Eucharist together in person, Pope Francis invites Catholics to say this prayer as a source of grace. We can be assured that when we express our desire to receive Jesus in the Eucharist, God will be with us spiritually in a special way. Here is an Act of Spiritual Communion that we encourage you to pray as you participate in our live-streamed liturgies:

ACT OF SPIRITUAL COMMUNION

Loving Jesus, I believe that you are present in the Most Holy Sacrament of the Eucharist. I love you above all things, and I desire to receive you into my soul. Since I cannot at this moment receive you sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace you as if you were already there and unite myself wholly to you. Never permit me to be separated from you. Amen.

COMMUNION | Christ, Be Our Light! Bernadette Farrell

COMMUNION MEDITATION | O Lord, Increase My Faith Orlando Gibbons (1583-1625)

O Lord, increase my faith, strengthen me and confirm me in thy true faith, endue me with wisdom, charity, chastity and patience in all my adversity. Sweet Jesus, say Amen.

CONCLUDING RITES

 The Lord be with you. All: And with your spirit.  May almighty God bless you, the Father, (+) and the Son and the Holy Spirit. All: Amen.  Go forth, the Mass is ended. All: Thanks be to God.

RECESSIONAL | Lead Me, Guide Me Doris M. Akers

Do you like to smile? If so, we need your help!

We are actively recruiting people to join our Greeters & Coffee Hospitality Ministries. Parish Greeters bring to life the part of our Parish Vision that states, "God's grace lives in the warm smiles of those who greet all parishioners and guests." And our Coffee Hospitality volunteers help ensure, in the words of our Vision, that "no one feels on the fringes." If this sounds good, please come to a fun volunteer kick-off/orientation session in the Parish Hall on Sunday, September 19 at 1:30 p.m. To learn more or to sign-up for this session, please take home a business card and send an email to Lisa Pickering ([email protected]).
