PSALMODY

Ant. 1 Whoever thirsts will drink freely of life-giving water, alleluia.

Psalm 63:2-9
A soul thirsting for God




O God, you are my God, for you I long; *
for you my soul is thirsting.
My body pines for you *
like a dry, weary land without water.
So I gaze on you in the sanctuary *
to see your strength and your glory.

For your love is better than life, *
my lips will speak your praise.
So I will bless you all my life, *
in your name I will lift up my hands.
My soul shall be filled as with a banquet, *
my mouth shall praise you with joy.

On my bed I remember you. *
On you I muse through the night
for you have been my help; *
in the shadow of your wings I rejoice.
My soul clings to you; *
your right hand holds me fast.

Glory to the Father, and to the Son, *
and to the Holy Spirit:
as it was in the beginning, is now, *
and will be for ever. Amen.

and make music with timbrel and harp.

shout for joy and take their rest.
Let the praise of God be on their lips *
and a two-edged sword in their hand,

to deal out vengeance to the nations *
and punishment on all the peoples;
to bind their kings in chains *
and their nobles in fetters of iron;
to carry out the sentence pre-ordained; *
this honor is for all his faithful.

Glory to the Father, and to the Son, *
and to the Holy Spirit:
as it was in the beginning, is now, *
and will be for ever. Amen.

1st Reading

Acts 9:26-31

A reading from the Acts of the Apostles

When Saul arrived in Jerusalem he tried to join the disciples,
   but they were all afraid of him,
   not believing that he was a disciple.
Then Barnabas took charge of him and brought him to the apostles,
   and he reported to them how he had seen the Lord,
   and that he had spoken to him,
   and how in Damascus he had spoken out boldly in the name of Jesus.
He moved about freely with them in Jerusalem,
   and spoke out boldly in the name of the Lord.
He also spoke and debated with the Hellenists,
   but they tried to kill him.
And when the brothers learned of this,
   they took him down to Caesarea
   and sent him on his way to Tarsus.

The church throughout all Judea, Galilee, and Samaria was at peace.
It was being built up and walked in the fear of the Lord,
   and with the consolation of the Holy Spirit it grew in numbers.

The word of the Lord.

The Word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.

2nd Reading

1 Jn 3:18-24

A reading from the first Letter of Saint John

Children, let us love not in word or speech
   but in deed and truth.

Now this is how we shall know that we belong to the truth
   and reassure our hearts before him
   in whatever our hearts condemn,
   for God is greater than our hearts and knows everything.
Beloved, if our hearts do not condemn us,
   we have confidence in God
   and receive from him whatever we ask,
   because we keep his commandments and do what pleases him.
And his commandment is this:
   we should believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ,
   and love one another just as he commanded us.
Those who keep his commandments remain in him, and he in them,
   and the way we know that he remains in us
   is from the Spirit he gave us.

The word of the Lord.

The Word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.

Alleluia, Alleluia.

Remain in me as I remain in you, says the Lord.
Whoever remains in me will bear much fruit.

Alleluia, Alleluia.



Gospel

Jn 15:1-8

A reading from the holy Gospel according to John

Jesus said to his disciples:
“I am the true vine, and my Father is the vine grower.
He takes away every branch in me that does not bear fruit,
   and every one that does he prunes so that it bears more fruit.
You are already pruned because of the word that I spoke to you.
Remain in me, as I remain in you.
Just as a branch cannot bear fruit on its own
   unless it remains on the vine,
   so neither can you unless you remain in me.
I am the vine, you are the branches.
Whoever remains in me and I in him will bear much fruit,
   because without me you can do nothing.
Anyone who does not remain in me
   will be thrown out like a branch and wither;
   people will gather them and throw them into a fire
   and they will be burned.
If you remain in me and my words remain in you,
   ask for whatever you want and it will be done for you.
By this is my Father glorified,
   that you bear much fruit and become my disciples.”

At the end of the Gospel, the Deacon, or the Priest, acclaims:

The Gospel of the Lord.

All reply:

Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.

Then he kisses the book, saying quietly:

Through the words of the Gospel
may our sins be wiped away.

The Creed is said.

The Gospel of the Lord.
Praise to You, Lord Jesus Christ.

Apostles Creed

I believe in God, the Father almighty,
creator of heaven and earth.

And in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord,
who was conceived by the Holy Spirit
and born of the virgin Mary.

He suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died, and was buried;
he descended to hell.

On the third day he rose again from the dead.
He ascended to heaven
and is seated at the right hand of God the Father almighty.
From there he will come to judge the living and the dead.

I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the Holy Catholic Church,
the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body,
and life everlasting.

Amen.

temptation, but deliver us,
deliver us from evil.


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






Pagkakaibigan
C. Cenzon, SJ, B. Santos, SJ

Ang sinumang sa
Aki'y nananahan,
nananahan din ako sa kanya,
at kung siya'y mamunga
nang masagana,
s’ya sa Ama'y nagbigay ng karangalan.

Mula ngayon,
kayo'y aking kaibigan,
hinango sa dilim at kababaan.
Ang kaibiga'y mag-aalay
ng sarili niyang buhay,
walang hihigit
sa yaring pag-aalay.

Kung paanong mahal
Ako ng Aking Ama,
sa inyo'y Aking ipinadarama.
Sa pag-ibig Ko
kayo sana ay manahan,
at bilin Ko sa inyo
ay magmahalan.

Mula ngayon,
kayo'y aking kaibigan,
hinango sa dilim at kababaan.
Ang kaibiga'y mag-aalay
ng sarili niyang buhay,
walang hihigit
sa yaring pag-aalay.

Pinili ka't hinirang
upang mahalin
nang mamunga't bunga
mo'y panatilihin.
Humayo ka't mamunga
nang masagana,
kagalakang walang hanggang ipamamana.

Mula ngayon,
kayo'y aking kaibigan,
hinango sa dilim at kababaan.
Ang kaibiga'y mag-aalay
ng sarili niyang buhay,
walang hihigit
sa yaring pag-aalay.







Gospel Canticle

Ant. Whoever lives in me and I in him will yield much fruit, says the Lord, alleluia.

Canticle of Zechariah
Luke 1:68-79
The Messiah and his forerunner


Blessed + be the Lord, the God of Israel; *
he has come to his people and set them free.

He has raised up for us a mighty savior, *
born of the house of his servant David.

Through his holy prophets he promised of old
  that he would save us from our enemies, *
  from the hands of all who hate us.

He promised to show mercy to our fathers *
and to remember his holy covenant.

This was the oath he swore to our father Abraham: *
to set us free from the hands of our enemies,
free to worship him without fear, *
holy and righteous in his sight
   all the days of our life.

You, my child, shall be called the prophet of the Most High; *
for you will go before the Lord to prepare his way,
to give his people knowledge of salvation *
by the forgiveness of their sins.

In the tender compassion of our God *
the dawn from on high shall break upon us,
to shine on those who dwell in darkness and the shadow of death, *
and to guide our feet into the way of peace.

Glory to the Father, and to the Son, *
and to the Holy Spirit:
as it was in the beginning, is now, *
and will be for ever. Amen.


Ant. Whoever lives in me and I in him will yield much fruit, says the Lord, alleluia.
