Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament / Exposición del Santísimo Sacramento After first Friday Evening mass Despues de Misa de Primer Viernes.

God loves infinite variety. God creates every human person as an unrepeat-able being, each with a distinct pur-pose in life. Today, on the feast of John the Baptist, we praise God for

creating this one-of-a-kind powerhouse prophet and preacher. Maybe some of us share personality traits with John the Baptist. Or maybe we couldn't be more unlike him. God will use whatever gifts we have, bold or discreet. God wants salvation to "reach to the ends of the earth," as today's reading from Isaiah says, so we can all find a way to serve the Lord. Nothing less than the salvation of the world is at stake; we have received the "word of salvation," Saint Paul says in the Acts of the Apostles. Today's feast is a perfect time to ask the Lord what gifts we have, and how we can use them to share the love of Jesus.

Dios ama la variedad infinita. Dios crea a cada persona humana como un ser irrepetible, cada uno con un propósito distinto en la vida. Hoy, en la fiesta de Juan el Bautista, alabamos a Dios por haber creado a este profeta y predica-dor único en su tipo. Tal vez algunos de nosotros comparti-mos rasgos de personalidad con Juan el Bautista. O tal vez no podríamos ser más diferentes a él. Dios usará cualquier regalo que tengamos, audaz o discreto. Dios quiere que la salvación "llegue hasta los confines de la tierra", como dice la lectura de hoy de Isaías, para que todos podamos en-contrar una manera de servir al Señor. Nada menos que la salvación del mundo está en juego; hemos recibido la "palabra de salvación", dice San Pablo en los Hechos de los Apóstoles. La fiesta de hoy es el momento perfecto para preguntarle al Señor qué regalos tenemos, y cómo podemos usarlos para compartir el amor de Jesús.

Saint Ann 8AM ENTRANCE HYMN: MY LIFE IS IN YOU LORD Chorus: My life is in You, Lord, My strength is in You Lord, My hope is in You, Lord, in You, it's in You (2x) I will praise You with all of my heart, I will praise You with all of my strength With all of my life, and all of my strength, All of my hope is in You! (Chorus) OFFERTORY: GOD IS MY REFUGE God is my refuge My trust and my deliverer A help close at hand In times of distress… Chorus: So I will lift my eyes Onto the mountains from whence comes my help From the Lord enthroned on high He is my rock and my salvation I’ll stand firm… NEW ACCLAMATION: When we eat this Bread and drink this Cup, We proclaim your Death, O Lord, Until you come again, until you come again, We proclaim your Death, O Lord.

COMMUNION : STAY WITH ME Should my heart not be humble, should my eyes fail to see,

Should my feet sometimes stum-ble on the way, stay with me. Like the lamb that in springtime wanders far from fold, Comes the darkness and the frost, I get lost, I grow cold.

I grow cold, I grow weary, and I know I have sinned, And I go seeking shelter and I cry in the wind, And though I grope and I blunder and I kneel and I'm wrong, Though the rose buckles under where I walk, walk along Till I find to my wonder every task least to see, Or that I can do is pray, stay with me Stay with me. LIFEGIVER Come to the lifegiver, come to the lifegiver And let Him pour His life on you Let Him pour His life on you, let Him pour His life on you.

Buhay Niya’y laging laan Sa ‘yo, S’ya ang pag-asa ng mundo At sa bawat landas S’ya lamang ang daan Tungo sa D’yos Ama sa Kalangitan (sa kalangitan)

Sa lahat ay may pangako S’ya, Ang hatid N’ya sa ‘ti’y pag-ibig (Chorus) At kay ganda nya ring mundo Kung may pagmamaha-lan Pag-ibig N’ya ay laan (2x)

St. Ann 12PM Entrance – TABLE OF PLENTY Refrain: Come to the feast of heav-en and earth! Come to the table of plenty! God will provide for all that we need Here at the table of plenty

O, come and sit at my table, Where saints and sinners are friends I wait to welcome the lost and lonely To share the cup of my love. (Refrain)

O, come and eat without money Come to drink without price My feast of gladness will feed your spirit With faith and fullness of life. Offertory 1 – TAKE & RECEIVE Take and receive Oh Lord, my liberty. Take all my will, my mind, my memory. All things I hold, and all I own are Thine. Thine was the gift, to Thee, I all resign.

Do Thou direct and govern all and sway. Do what Thou wilt command, and I obey. Only Thy grace, Thy love on me bestow. These make me rich, all else will I forego Offertory 2 – BLESSED BE GOD Blest are you, Lord, God of all crea-tion, thanks to your goodness this bread we offer: fruit of the earth, work of our hands, it will become the bread of life. Chorus: Blessed be God! Blessed be God! Blessed be God forever! Amen! Blessed be God! Blessed be God! Blessed be God forever! Amen! Blest are you, Lord, God of all crea-tion, thanks to your goodness this wine we offer: fruit of the earth, work of our

hands, it will become the cup of life. Communion: SPIRIT AND GRACE Spirit and grace, here in this meal. You are the wind that breathes through the field. Gather the wheat and form us in Christ. Come, be our source and breath of life. Refrain: In the bread, blessed, bro-ken and shared, Christ is our life, whose presence we bear. Come O spirit, make your grace revealed In this holy meal. Spirit and grace, here in this meal. You are the life that flows through the vine. Gather this drink and form us in Christ Come, be our source and blood of life. (Refrain)

Spirit and grace, here in this place. You are the light that shines in this space. Gather your people and form us in Christ Come, be the heartbeat of our lives. (Refrain) Recessional – LEAD ME, LORD Blessed are the poor in spirit, longing for their Lord, for God's coming king-dom shall be theirs. Blessed are the sorrowing, for they shall be consoled, and the meek shall come to rule the world. Refrain: Lead me Lord, lead me Lord, by the light of truth, to seek and to find the narrow way. Be my way, be my truth, be my life, my Lord, And lead me, Lord, today. Blessed are the merciful for mercy shall be theirs, and the pure in heart shall see their God. Blest are they whose hunger only holiness can fill, for I say they shall be satisfied. (Ref)

DIVINE SAVIOUR CHURCH Entrance: “CHRIST BE OUR LIGHT” 1. Longing for light, we wait in darkness. Longing for truth, we turn to you.

Make us your own, your holy people, light for the world to see. Refrain: Christ, be our light! Shine in our hearts. Shine through the darkness. Christ, be our light! Shine in your church gathered today. 2. Longing for peace, our world is troubled. Longing for hope, many des-

pair. Your word alone has pow’r to save us. Make us your living voice. (refrain)

Psalm: “I praise You for I am wonderfully made.”

Presentation: "COME TO THE WATER” 1. O let all who thirst, let them come to the water. And let all who have noth-

ing, let them come to the Lord: without money, without price. Why should you pay the price, except for the Lord?

2. And let all who seek, let them come to the water. And let all who have nothing, let them come to the Lord: without money, without strife. Why should you spend your life, except for the Lord?

3. And let all who toil, let them come to the water. And let all who are weary, let them come to the Lord: all who labor, without rest. How can your soul find rest, except for the Lord?

4. And let all the poor, let them come to the water. Bring the ones who are laden, bring them all to the Lord: bring the children without might. Easy the load and light: come to the Lord.

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

Communion: “BEHOLD THE LAMB” 1. Those who were in the dark are thankful for the sunlight; we who live, we

who die are grateful for his gift, thankful for his love. Refrain: Behold the Lamb of God. All who eat, all who drink shall live; and all, all who dwell in God, shall come to know his glory. 2. Peaceful now, those whose hearts are blessed with understanding.

Of the wheat, of the wine united with his word and the love we share. 3. Gentle one, Child of God, join with us at this table. Bless our lives; nourish

all who hunger for this feast; shelter them with peace. (refrain) 4. Lord of all, give us light. Deliver us from evil. Make us one; be our shield.

Make still the winds that blow; cradle us with love. (refrain)

“YOU ARE NEAR” Refrain: Oh Lord, I know you are near, standing always at my side. You guard me from the foe, and you lead me in ways everlasting. 1. Lord, you have searched my heart, and you know when I sit and when I

stand. Your hand is up on me, protecting me from death, keeping me from harm. (refrain)

2. Where can I run from your love? If I climb to the heavens, you are there; if I fly to the sunrise or sail beyond the sea, still I’d find you there. (refrain)

Recessional: “THOUGH THE MOUNTAINS MAY FALL” Refrain: Though the mountains may fall and the hills turn to dust, yet the love of the Lord will stand as a shelter for all who will call on his name. Sing the praise and the glory of God. 1. Could the Lord ever leave you? Could the Lord forget his love? Though a

mother forsake her child, he will not abandon you. 2. Should you turn and forsake him, he will gently call your name. Should

you wander away from him, he will always take you back.

DID YOU KNOW? Educate children to identify risky behavior Recently, abuse against women has been thrust into the public spot-light, with the “Me Too” movement. It is important for parents/caregivers be aware of risks to girls and risks to boys. Boys and girls both need to be educated on what’s acceptable and what’s inappropriate, and how to react if someone does something that crosses the line. It is important for adults to reinforce the message that we must all look for, identify, and call attention to the risky behavior exhibited by any adult toward any child.

Eduque a los niños para identificar comportamientos riesgosos Recientemente, se ha puesto más en la luz pública el abuso contra las mujeres con el movimiento “Me Too”. Es importante para los padres de familia y quienes cuidan a niños sean conscientes de los riesgos a las niñas y los niños. Tanto los niños como las niñas deben ser educados en lo que es aceptable y lo que es inapropiado, y cómo reaccionar si alguien les hace algo que cruce esas líneas. Es importante que los adultos refuercen el mensaje que todos debemos seguir, para identi-ficar y llamar la atención sobre un comportamiento de riesgo exhibido por cualquier adulto hacia cualquier niño o niña
