RESPONSORIAL PSALM | Psalm 147: Praise the Lord, Who Heals the Brokenhearted Marty Haugen

1. How good to sing psalms to our God; how pleasant to chant fitting praise! The Lord builds up Jerusalem and brings back Israel’s exiles.

2. He heals the brokenhearted; he binds up all their wounds. He counts out the number of the stars; he calls each one by its name.

3. Our Lord is great and almighty; his wisdom can never be measured. The Lord lifts up the lowly; he casts down the wicked to the ground.

HOMILY

NICENE CREED

I believe in one God, the Father almighty, maker of 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 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.

UNIVERSAL PRAYER

LITURGY OF THE EUCHARIST

Thank you for your generous support of the parish!

Over the past several months, even as we have sheltered in place, we have continued to worship and connect with each other virtually. The members of our ministries continue to engage with each other in fellowship and in service to our wider community. And, a new task force of volunteers has come together to support homebound or isolated parishioner. Your continued support helps make these things happen. While we won’t be able to pass the collection basket for a while, we invite you to join our efforts in one of the following ways:

• Make a one-time gift or ongoing weekly donation — www.saintceciliaboston.org/igive • Venmo — @SaintCeciliaParish (If prompted, the last four digits of our number are 3880) • Mail a check — Saint Cecilia Parish 18 Belvidere St. Boston, MA 02115

For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours now and forever. Amen.

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, 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 | There is a Balm in Gilead African American Spiritual

CONCLUDING RITES

COMMEMORATING BLACK HISTORY

The month of February is recognized in the United States and social context and dangerous memory of chattel slavery, white Canada as Black History Month.

However, the commemoration shockingly short of acknowledging such complicity, identifying also ought to remind white women and men — such as myself the persistence of white supremacy and naming the sinners — that ours is not the only history, our experiences are not that are culpable for the "sin of racism." universal experiences and our perspectives and cultures should not be viewed as normative. On the latter point, scholars have been doing important work for decades in an effort to raise greater awareness of One of the unintended drawbacks of Black History Month as a the Black Catholic community that has been present on this social and educational phenomenon is that it gives cover to white continent for centuries. The classic study of this history is the vincible ignorance. White students are often exposed only to a late Benedictine Fr.

While Black History Month is an opportune time for on me to continue the ongoing self-examination necessary children, women and men of African descent to celebrate to contribute to the work of anti-racism.
