LITURGY OF THE WORD
1st Reading (Pauls Letter to the
Colossians 3:12-17)
As Gods chosen ones, holy and beloved,
clothe your selves with compassion,
kindness, humility, meekness, and
patience. Bear with one another and if
anyone has a complaint against another,
forgive each other; just as the Lord has
forgiven you, so you also must forgive.
Above all, clothe yourselves with love,
which binds everything together in perfect
harmony. And let the peace of Christ rule
in your hearts, to which indeed you were
called in the one body. And be thankful.
Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly;
teach and admonish one another in all
wisdom; and with gratitude in your hearts
sing psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs to
God. And whatever you do, in word or
deed, do everything in the name of the

Father through him.
The word of the Lord
Thanks be to God
Responsorial Psalm
Blessed be the name of the Lord forever
Every day will I bless you, and I will
praise your name forever and ever.
Great is the LORD and highly to be
praised; his greatness is unsearchable.
Generation after generation praises
your works and proclaims your
might. They speak of the splendor of
your glorious majesty and tell of your
wondrous works.
They discourse of the power of your
terrible deeds and declare your
greatness. They publish the fame of
your abundant goodness and joyfully
sing of your justice.
The LORD is gracious and merciful,
slow to anger and of great kindness.
The LORD is good to all and
compassionate toward all his works.
Let all your works give you thanks, O
LORD, and let your faithful ones
bless you. Let them discourse of the
glory of your Kingdom and speak of
your might.
Second Reading (1 Cor. 1:3-9)
Brothers and sisters: Grace to you and
peace from God our Father and the Lord
Jesus Christ. I give thanks to my God
always on your account for the grace of
God bestowed on you in Christ Jesus,
that in him you were enriched in every
way, with all discourse and all knowledge,
as the testimony to Christ was confirmed
among you, so that you are not lacking in
any spiritual gift as you wait for the
revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ. He
will keep you firm to the end,
irreproachable on the day of our Lord
Jesus Christ. God is faithful, and by him
you were called to fellowship with his
Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.
GOSPEL ACCLAMATION
Gospel
Priest: The Lord be with you.
All: And with your spirit.
Priest: A reading from the Holy Gospel
according to Luke.
All: Glory to you, O Lord.
Gospel ( Luke 17: 11-19)
As Jesus continued his journey to
Jerusalem, he traveled through Samaria
ten persons with leprosy met him. They
stood at a distance from him and raised
their voices, saying, "Jesus, Master! Have
pity on us!" And when he saw them, he
said, "Go show yourselves to the priests."
As they were going they were cleansed.
And one of them, realizing he had been
healed, returned, glorifying God in a loud
voice; and he fell at the feet of Jesus and
thanked him. He was a Samaritan. Jesus
said in reply, "Ten were cleansed, were
they not? Where are the other nine? Has
none but this foreigner returned to give
thanks to God?" Then he said to him,
"Stand up and go; your faith has saved
you."
Priest: The Gospel of the Lord.
All : Praise to you, Lord Jesus
Christ.
Homily
Profession of Faith
All: I believe in one 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, born of the Virgin Mary; suffered
under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died
and was buried. He descended into hell;
the third day He rose again from the dead;
He ascended into heaven, is seated at
the right hand of God the Father
Almighty; from thence He shall 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.
Priest : Gathered in joyful hope, we offer
our prayers to God, who creates hearts to
love. In every petition we say

Preface
Priest: The Lord be with you.
All: And with your spirit.
Priest: Lift up your hearts.
All: We lift them up to the Lord.
Priest: Let us give thanks to the Lord our
God.
All: It is right and just.
Priest : It is truly right and just, our
duty and our salvation, always and
everywhere to give you thanks, Father
most holy, through your beloved Son,
Jesus Christ, your Word through whom
you made all things, whom you sent as
our Savior and Redeemer, incarnate by the
Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin.
Fulfilling your will and gaining for you a
holy people, he stretched out his hands as
he endured his Passion, so as to break the
bonds of death and manifest the
resurrection. And so, with the Angels and
all the Saints we declare your glory, as
with one voice we acclaim:
Song Leader: (Sings Holy, Holy)
Priest: You are indeed Holy, O Lord, the
fount of all holiness. Make holy,
therefore, these gifts, we pray, by sending
down your Spirit upon them like the
dewfall, so that they may become for us
the Body and Blood of our Lord Jesus
Christ. At the time he was betrayed and
entered willingly into his Passion, he took
break and, giving thanks, broke it, and
gave it to his disciples, saying: Take this,
all of you, and eat of it, for this is my
Body, which will be given up for you.
In a similar way, when supper was ended,
he took the chalice and, once more giving
thanks, he gave it to his disciples, saying:
Take this, all of you and drink from it,
for this is the Chalice of my Blood, the
Blood of the new and eternal covenant,
which will be poured out for you and for
many for the forgiveness of sins. Do this
in memory of me.
Priest: The mystery of faith
Acclamation (to be sung)
Doxology
Priest: Therefore, as we celebrate the
memorial of his Death and Resurrection,
we offer you, Lord, the Bread of life and
the Chalice of salvation, giving thanks
that you have held us worthy to be in your
presence and minister to you. Humbly we
pray that, partaking of the Body and
Blood of Christ, we may be gathered into
one by the Holy Spirit. Remember, Lord,
your Church, spread throughout the world,
and bring her to the fullness of charity,
together with N. our Pope and N. our
Bishop and all the clergy. Remember also
our brothers and sisters who have fallen
asleep in the hope of the resurrection, and
all who have died in your mercy:
welcome them into the light of your face.
Have mercy on us all, we pray, that with
the Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of God,
with the blessed Apostles, and all the
Saints who have pleased you throughout
the ages, we may merit to be co-heirs to
eternal life, and may praise and glorify
you through your Son, Jesus Christ.
Through him, and with him, and in him, O
God, almighty Father, in the unity of the
Holy Spirit, all glory and honor is yours,
for ever and ever.
