Collect

O God, who declarest thy almighty power most chiefly in showing mercy and pity: mercifully grant unto us such a measure of thy grace; that we, running the way of thy commandments, may obtain thy gracious promises, and be made partakers of thy heavenly treasure; through Jesus Christ thy Son our Lord, who liveth and reigneth with thee, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, ever one God, world without end. Amen.

First Reading Wisdom 18:6-9

That night was made known beforehand to our

fathers, so that they might rejoice in sure knowledge

of the oaths in which they trusted. The deliverance

of the righteous and the destruction of their enemies

were expected by your people. For by the same

means by which you punished our enemies you called

us to yourself and glorified us. For in secret the holy

children of good men offered sacrifices, and with one

accord agreed to the divine law, that the saints would

share alike the same things, both blessings and

dangers; and already they were singing the praises

of the fathers.

Responsorial Psalm 33:1, 12, 18-20, 22

R/. Blessed the people whom the Lord has chosen as his heritage.

Rejoice in the LORD, O you righteous! Praise befits the upright.

Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD, the people whom he has chosen as his heritage. R/.

Behold, the eye of the LORD is on those who fear him,

on those who hope in his merciful love, that he may deliver their soul from death, and keep them alive in famine. R/.

Our soul waits for the LORD; he is our help and shield.

Let your mercy, O LORD, be upon us, even as we hope in you. R/.

Gradual Psalm 28:8b,1

My heart hath trusted in God, and I am helped: therefore my heart danceth for joy, and in my

song will I praise him. V. Unto thee will I cry, O Lord my strength:

think no scorn of me, my God, go not far from me.

Second Reading Hebrews 11:1-2, 8-19

Brethren: Faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. For by it the men of old

received divine approval. By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out to a place which he was to

receive as an inheritance; and he went out, not knowing where he was to go. By faith he sojourned in the land of

promise, as in a foreign land, living in tents with Isaac and Jacob, heirs with him of the same promise. For he

looked forward to the city which has foundations, whose builder and maker is God. By faith Sarah herself

received power to conceive, even when she was past the age, since she considered him faithful who had promised.

Therefore from one man, and him as good as dead, were born descendants as many as the stars of heaven and as

the innumerable grains of sand by the seashore. [These all died in faith, not having received what was promised,

but having seen it and greeted it from afar, and having acknowledged that they were strangers and exiles on the

earth. For people who speak thus make it clear that they are seeking a homeland. If they had been thinking of that

land from which they had gone out, they would have had opportunity to return. But as it is, they desire a better

country, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared for them

a city. By faith Abraham, when he was tested, offered up Isaac, and he who had received the promises was ready

to offer up his only son, of whom it was said, "Through Isaac shall your descendants be named." He considered

that God was able to raise men even from the dead; hence he did receive him back and this was a symbol.]

8 am and 6 pm Masses

Alleluia Alleluia. Alleluia.

V/. Watch therefore, and be ready; the Son of man is coming at an hour you do not expect.

Alleluia. 10:30 am Mass Chanted by the Choir.

Alleluia

Alleluia. Alleluia. Sing we merrily unto God our strength; make a cheerful noise unto the God of Jacob:

take the psalm, bring hither the tabret. Alleluia.

The Holy Gospel Luke 12:32-48

At that time: Jesus said to his disciples, [“Fear not, little flock, for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the

kingdom. Sell your possessions, and give alms; provide yourselves with purses that do not grow old, with a

treasure in the heavens that does not fail, where no thief approaches and no moth destroys. For where your

treasure is, there will your heart be also.] Let your loins be girded and your lamps burning, and be like men who

are waiting for their master to come home from the marriage feast, so that they may open to him at once when he

comes and knocks. Blessed are those servants whom the master finds awake when he comes; truly, I say to you, he

will put on his apron and have them sit at table, and he will come and serve them. If he comes in the second watch,

or in the third, and finds them so, blessed are those servants! But know this, that if the householder had known at

what hour the thief was coming, he would have been awake and would not have left his house to be broken into.

You also must be ready; for the Son of man is coming at an hour you do not expect.” [Peter said, “Lord, are you

telling this parable for us or for all?” And the Lord said, “Who then is the faithful and wise steward, whom his

master will set over his household, to give them their portion of food at the proper time? Blessed is that servant

whom his master when he comes will find so doing. Truly I tell you, he will set him over all his possessions. But

if that servant says to himself, 'My master is delayed in coming,' and begins to beat the menservants and the maid-

servants, and to eat and drink and get drunk, the master of that servant will come on a day when he does not expect

him and at an hour he does not know, and will punish him, and put him with the unfaithful. And that servant who

knew his master's will, but did not make ready or act according to his will, shall receive a severe beating. But he

who did not know, and did what deserved a beating, shall receive a light beating. Every one to whom much is

given, of him will much be required; and of him to whom men commit much they will demand the more.”]

Those who are scheduled to serve but unable to carry out the assignment are asked to arrange substitutes and contact the Parish Office (817.460.2278) ASAP.
