                                 Liturgy of the Word
First Reading:                                                                Sirach 50:22-24
And now, bless the God of all, who has done wondrous things on earth;
Who fosters people’s growth from their mother’s womb,
and fashions them according to his will!

May he grant you joy of heart and may peace abide among you;
May his goodness toward us endure in Israel to deliver us in our days.
Responsorial Psalm 113                                                     Blessed Be The Name
                                                                                      Owen Alstott

                              Praise, you servants of the Lord,
                              Praise the name of the Lord.
                              Blessed be the name of the Lord,
                              Both now and forever.

                              From the rising to the setting of the sun,
                              Is the name of the Lord to be praised.
                              High above all nations is the Lord;
                              Above the heavens is his glory.

                              Who is like the Lord, our God,
                              Who is enthroned on high,
                              And looks upon the heavens
                              And the earth below?

                              He raises up the lowly from the dust;
                              From the dunghill he lifts up the poor,
                              To seat them with prices,
                              With the princes of his own people.

Second Reading                                                               1 Corinthians 1:3-9
Brothers and sisters:
Grace to you and peace from God our Father
and the Lord Jesus Christ.
I give thanks to my God always on your account
for the grace of God bestowed on you in Christ Jesus,
that in him you were enriched in every way,
with all discourse and all knowledge,
as the testimony to Christ was confirmed among you,
so that you are not lacking in any spiritual gift
as you wait for the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ.
He will keep you firm to the end,
irreproachable on the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.
God is faithful,
and by him you were called to fellowship with his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

                               Verse: In all circumstances, give thanks,
                          for this is the will of God for you in Christ Jesus.

Gospel Reading                                                                   Luke 17:11-19
As Jesus continued his journey to Jerusalem,
he traveled through Samaria and Galilee.
As he was entering a village, ten persons with leprosy met him.
They stood at a distance from him and raised their voices, saying,
“Jesus, Master! Have pity on us!”
And when he saw them, he said,
“Go show yourselves to the priests.”
As they were going they were cleansed.
And one of them, realizing he had been healed,
returned, glorifying God in a loud voice;
and he fell at the feet of Jesus and thanked him.
He was a Samaritan.
Jesus said in reply,
“Ten were cleansed, were they not?
Where are the other nine?
Has none but this foreigner returned to give thanks to God?”
Then he said to him, “Stand up and go;
your faith has saved you.”
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.

                          Holy, Holy, Holy

                    Holy, Holy, Holy Lord God of hosts.
                   Heaven and earth are full of your glory.
                           Hosanna in the highest.
              Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.
                           Hosanna in the highest.

We proclaim your Death, O Lord, and profess your Resurrection until you come again.

                                       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.

                          Lamb of God, you take away the sins of the world,
                                          grant us peace.

                                Prayer of Spiritual Communion

                  "My Jesus, I believe you are really here in the Blessed Sacrament.
                             I love you more than anything in the world,
                                      and I hunger to receive you.
                       But since I cannot receive Communion at this moment,
                                    feed my soul at least spiritually.
                I unite myself to you now as I do when I actually receive you. Amen"
Communion Meditation                                                 Look at the World
                                                                             John Rutter
                  Look at the world: Everything all around us,
                   Look at the world: and marvel everyday,
                 Look at the world: So many joys and wonders,
                       So many miracles along our way.

                     Praise to thee, O Lord, for all creation,
                    Give us thankful hearts that we may see,
                    All the gifts we share and every blessing,
                             All things come of thee.

               Look at the earth: Bringing forth fruit and flower,
                  Look at the sky: The sunshine and the rain,
               Look at the hills, look at the trees and mountains,
                   Valley and flowing river field and plain.

                     Praise to thee, O Lord, for all creation,
                    Give us thankful hearts that we may see,
                    All the gifts we share and every blessing,
                             All things come of thee.

              Think of the spring, Think of the warmth of summer,
                  Bringing the harvest before the winters cold,
                   Everything grows, everything has a season,
                      Til' it is gathered to the fathers fold.

                     Praise to thee, O Lord, for all creation,
                    Give us thankful hearts that we may see,
                    All the gifts we share and every blessing,
                             All things come of thee.

                 Every good gift, all that we need and cherish,
                   Comes from the lord in token of his love,
                 We are his hands, stewards of all his bounty,
                  His is the earth and his the heavens above.

                     Praise to thee, O Lord, for all creation,
                    Give us thankful hearts that we may see,
                    All the gifts we share and every blessing,
                             All things come of thee.

Prayer to Saint Michael the Archangel

                             Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle.
                   Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil;
                                  May God rebuke him, we humbly pray;
                                And do thou, O Prince of the Heavenly Host,
                                 by the power of God, cast into hell Satan,
               and all the evil spirits who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls.
                                                   Amen.
