Propers of the Mass Fifteenth Sunday after Pentecost
Introit: Incline Your ear, O Lord; answer me; save Your servant, O my God, who trusts in You. Have pity on me, O Lord, for to You I call all the day. Gladden the soul of Your servant, for to You, O Lord, I lift up my soul. Glory be…. Collect: May Your abiding mercy, O Lord, cleanse and strengthen Your Church, and, since without You she cannot exist in safety, let her be ever guided by Your grace. Through Jesus Christ... Epistle: Lesson from the letter of St. Paul the Apostle to the Galatians: Brethren: If we live by the Spirit, by the Spirit let us also walk. Let us not become desirous of vainglory, provoking one another, envying one an-other. Brethren, even if a person is caught doing some-thing wrong, you who are spiritual instruct such a one in a spirit of meekness, considering yourself, lest you also be tempted. Bear one another’s burdens, and so you will fulfill the law of Christ. For if anyone thinks himself to be something, whereas he is nothing, he de-ceives himself. But let everyone test his own work, and so he will have glory in himself only, and not in comparison with another. For each one will bear his own burden. And let him who is instructed in the word share all good things with his teacher. Be not deceived, God is not mocked. For what a man sows in the flesh, from the flesh also will reap corruption. But he who sows in the spirit, from the spirit will reap life everlast-ing. And in doing good let us not grow tired; for in due time we shall reap if we do not relax. Therefore, while we have time, let us do good to all men, but especially to those who are of the household of faith.
Gradual: It is good to give thanks to the Lord, to sing to Your name, Most High. To proclaim Your kindness at dawn and Your faithfulness throughout the night. Alleluia, alleluia. For the Lord is a great God, and a great King over all the earth. Alleluia. Gospel: Continuation of the Holy Gospel according to St. Luke: At that time, Jesus went to a town called Naim; and His disciples and a large crowd went with Him. And as He drew near the gate of the town, be-hold, a dead man was being carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow; and a large gath-ering from the town was with her. And the Lord, see-ing her, had compassion on her, and said to her, Do not weep. And He went up and touched the stretcher; and the bearers stood still. And He said, Young man, I say to you, arise. And he who was dead, sat up, and began to speak. And He gave him to his mother. But fear seized upon all, and they began to glorify God, saying, A great prophet has risen among us, and God has visit-ed His people. Offertory: I have waited, waited for the Lord, and He stooped toward me, and heard my cry. And He put a new song into my mouth, a hymn to our God. Secret: May Your sacrament, O Lord, always keep us and guard us from the assaults of the devil. Through our Lord… Communion: The bread that I will give is My Flesh for the life of the world. Post Communion: May the working of the heavenly gift, O Lord, so possess us, mind and body, that the action of the sacrament, rather than our senses, may continually prevail in us. Through our Lord…
