PARISH MISSION PROJECT WEEKEND - steas.net

My brothers and sisters in Christ: At Mass this weekend, we will entrust each family in our parish to God’s care, in a very special way,

by praying an Act of Consecration to the Holy Family. We’ve included the text of this prayer here in the bulletin, in our Friday Feed, and on holy cards that will be available at the entrance to the church. Please do try to take time before Mass this weekend to prepare for this awesome occasion in the life of our parish. One way would be to offer a prayer like this: “Holy Family, we consecrate ourselves and our family (mention family member names) to you.”Through the prayers of Saint Joseph and Blessed Mary, and by the Power of Our Lord Jesus Christ, may Almighty God bless the families of our parish, and all families, with unity, peace, and love.

O Lord Jesus,you lived in the home of Mary and Joseph in Nazareth.

There you grew in age, wisdom and graceas you prepared to fulfill your mission

as our Redeemer.We entrust our family to you.

O Blessed Mary,you are the Mother of our Savior.At Nazareth you cared for Jesus

and nurtured him in the peace and joy of your home.We entrust our family to you.

O Saint Joseph,you provided a secure and loving home for Jesus and Mary,

and gave us a model of fatherhoodwhile showing us the dignity of work.

We entrust our family to you.Holy Family,

we consecrate ourselves and our family to you.May we be completely united in a love that is lasting, faithfuland open to the gift of new life.

Help us to grow in virtue,to forgive one another from our hearts,

and to live in peace all our days.Keep us strong in faith, persevering in prayer,

diligent in our work, and generous toward those in need.May our home, O Holy Family,

truly become a domestic churchwhere we reflect your example in our daily life. Amen.

Jesus, Mary and Joseph, pray for us!

All are welcome, saints and sinners, searchers and pilgrims.Engage with us at www.steas.net and on our social media.

PENITENTIAL RITE

Introductory Rites

ENTRANCE HYMN

How firm a foundation, you saints of the Lord,Is laid for your faith in the excellent word!What more can God say than has always been said,To you who for refuge to Jesus have fled?

Fear not, I am with you, O be not dismayed,For I am your God, and will still give you aid;

I’ll strengthen you, help you, and cause you to stand,Upheld by my righteous, omnipotent hand.

When through the deep waters I call you to go,The rivers of sorrow shall not overflow;For I will be with you, your troubles to bless,And sanctify to you your deepest distress.

How Firm a Foundation

ENTRANCE ANTIPHON Psalm 106 (105):47

GLORIA

Glory to God in the highest,and on earth peace to people of good will.We praise you, we bless you,we adore you, we glorify you,we give you thanks for your great glory,Lord God, heavenly King, O God, almighty Father.Lord Jesus Christ, Only Begotten Son,Lord God, Lamb of God, Son of the Father,you take away the sins of the world,have mercy on us;

you take away the sins of the world,receive our prayer;you are seated at the right hand of the Father,have mercy on us.For you alone are the Holy One,you alone are the Lord,you alone are the Most High, Jesus Christ,with the Holy Spirit,in the glory of God the Father.Amen

Order of the Mass

RESPONSORIAL PSALM Psalm 95:1-2, 6-7, 7-9

(R.) (8) If today you hear his voice, harden not your hearts.

Come, let us sing joyfully to the LORD;let us acclaim the rock of our salvation.Let us come into his presence with thanksgiving;let us joyfully sing psalms to him.

(R.) If today you hear his voice, harden not your hearts.

Come, let us bow down in worship;let us kneel before the LORD who made us.For he is our God,and we are the people he shepherds, the flock he guides.


Oh, that today you would hear his voice:“Harden not your hearts as at Meribah,as in the day of Massah in the desert,Where your fathers tempted me;they tested me though they had seen my works.”


A READING FROM THE FIRST LETTER OF SAINT PAUL TO THE CORINTHIANS

Brothers and sisters:I should like you to be free of anxieties.An unmarried man is anxious about the things of the Lord, how he may please the Lord.But a married man is anxious about the things of the world, how he may please his wife, and he is divided.An unmarried woman or a virgin is anxious about the things of the Lord, so that she may be holy

in both body and spirit.A married woman, on the other hand,is anxious about the things of the world,how she may please her husband.I am telling you this for your own benefit,not to impose a restraint upon you,but for the sake of proprietyand adherence to the Lord without distraction.

1 Corinthians 7:32-35

A READING FROM THE BOOK OF DEUTERONOMY Deuteronomy 18:15-20

Moses spoke to all the people, saying:“A prophet like me will the LORD, your God, raise up for you from among your own kin; to him you shall listen.This is exactly what you requested of the LORD, your God, at Horeb on the day of the assembly, when you said, ‘Let us not again hear the voice of the LORD, our God, nor see this great fire any more,lest we die.’

And the LORD said to me, ‘This was well said.I will raise up for them a prophet like you from among their kin, and will put my words into his mouth; he shall tell them all that I command him. Whoever will not listen to my words which he speaks in my name, I myself will make him answer for it. But if a prophet presumes to speak in my name an oracle that I have not commanded him to speak, or speaks in the name of other gods, he shall die.’”

A READING FROM THE HOLY GOSPEL ACCORDING TO MARK Mark 1:21-28

Then they came to Capernaum, and on the sabbath Jesus entered the synagogue and taught.The people were astonished at his teaching,for he taught them as one having authority and not as the scribes.In their synagogue was a man with an unclean spirit;he cried out, “What have you to do with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us?I know who you are—the Holy One of God!”

Jesus rebuked him and said, “Quiet! Come out of him!”The unclean spirit convulsed him and with a loud cry came out of him.All were amazed and asked one another, “What is this?A new teaching with authority.He commands even the unclean spirits and they obey him.”His fame spread everywhere throughout the whole region of Galilee.

GOSPEL ACCLAMATION

Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia!The people who sit in darkness have seen a great light;on those dwelling in a land overshadowed by death,light has arisen.Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia!

Matthew 4:16

HOMILY

PROFESSION OF FAITHI 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 salvationhe came down from heaven,(At the words that follow, up to and includingand became man, all bow)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 dayin accordance with the Scriptures.He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father.He will come again in gloryto judge the living and the deadand 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 sinsand I look forward to the resurrection of the deadand the life of the world to come. Amen.
