  • The Commemoration of All the Faithful Departed (All Souls) 2019:

    FIRST LECTURE OF THE MASS

    Wisdom 3:1-9

    1But the souls of the righteous are in the hand of God, and no torment will ever touch them. 2In the eyes of the foolish they seemed to have died, and their departure was thought to be an affliction, 3and their going from us to be their destruction;but they are at peace. 4For though in the sight of men they were punished, their hope is full of immortality. 5Having been disciplined a little, they will receive great good, because God tested them and found them worthy of himself;6like gold in the furnace he tried them, and like a sacrificial burnt offering he accepted them. 7In the time of their visitation they will shine forth, and will run like sparks through the stubble. 8They will govern nations and rule over peoples, and the Lord will reign over them for ever. 9Those who trust in him will understand truth, and the faithful will abide with him in love, because grace and mercy are upon his elect, and he watches over his holy ones.

    RESPONSORIAL PSALM

    Psalms 27:1, 4, 7-9, 13-14

    1The LORD is my light and my salvation;whom shall I fear? The LORD is the stronghold of my life;of whom shall I be afraid? 4One thing have I asked of the LORD, that will I seek after;that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to inquire in his temple. 7Hear, O LORD, when I cry aloud, be gracious to me and answer me! 8Thou hast said, "Seek ye my face." My heart says to thee, "Thy face, LORD, do I seek." 9Hide not thy face from me. Turn not thy servant away in anger, thou who hast been my help. Cast me not off, forsake me not, O God of my salvation! 13I believe that I shall see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living! 14Wait for the LORD;be strong, and let your heart take courage;yea, wait for the LORD!

    SECOND LECTURE OF THE MASS

    Romans 5:5-11

    5and hope does not disappoint us, because God's love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit which has been given to us. 6While we were still weak, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly. 7Why, one will hardly die for a righteous man -- though perhaps for a good man one will dare even to die. 8But God shows his love for us in that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us. 9Since, therefore, we are now justified by his blood, much more shall we be saved by him from the wrath of God. 10For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, now that we are reconciled, shall we be saved by his life. 11Not only so, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received our reconciliation.

    GOSPEL OF THE MASS

    John 11:17-27

    17Now when Jesus came, he found that Laz'arus had already been in the tomb four days. 18Bethany was near Jerusalem, about two miles off, 19and many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary to console them concerning their brother. 20When Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went and met him, while Mary sat in the house. 21Martha said to Jesus, "Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died. 22And even now I know that whatever you ask from God, God will give you." 23Jesus said to her, "Your brother will rise again." 24Martha said to him, "I know that he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day." 25Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life;he who believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live, 26and whoever lives and believes in me shall never die. Do you believe this?" 27She said to him, "Yes, Lord;I believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, he who is coming into the world."

  • SATURDAY THIRTIETH WEEK OF ORDINARY TIME 2019:

    Ordinary Time.

    FIRST LECTURE OF THE MASS

    Rom 11:1-2a, 11-12, 25-29

    Brothers and sisters:
    I ask, then, has God rejected his people?
    Of course not!
    For I too am a child of Israel, a descendant of Abraham,
    of the tribe of Benjamin.
    God has not rejected his people whom he foreknew.
    Do you not know what the Scripture says about Elijah,
    how he pleads with God against Israel?

    Hence I ask, did they stumble so as to fall?
    Of course not!
    But through their transgression
    salvation has come to the Gentiles,
    so as to make them jealous.
    Now if their transgression is enrichment for the world,
    and if their diminished number is enrichment for the Gentiles,
    how much more their full number.

    I do not want you to be unaware of this mystery, brothers and sisters,
    so that you will not become wise in your own estimation:
    a hardening has come upon Israel in part,
    until the full number of the Gentiles comes in,
    and thus all Israel will be saved, as it is written:

    The deliverer will come out of Zion,
    he will turn away godlessness from Jacob;
    and this is my covenant with them
    when I take away their sins.


    In respect to the Gospel, they are enemies on your account;
    but in respect to election,
    they are beloved because of the patriarch.
    For the gifts and the call of God are irrevocable.

    RESPONSORIAL PSALM

    PS 94:12-13a, 14-15, 17-18

    R. (14a) The Lord will not abandon his people.
    Blessed the man whom you instruct, O LORD,
    whom by your law you teach,
    Giving him rest from evil days.
    R. The Lord will not abandon his people.
    For the LORD will not cast off his people,
    nor abandon his inheritance;
    But judgment shall again be with justice,
    and all the upright of heart shall follow it.
    R. The Lord will not abandon his people.
    Were not the LORD my help,
    my soul would soon dwell in the silent grave.
    When I say, “My foot is slipping,”
    your mercy, O LORD, sustains me.
    R. The Lord will not abandon his people.

    Alleluia Mt 11:29ab

    R. Alleluia, alleluia.
    Take my yoke upon you and learn from me,
    for I am meek and humble of heart.
    R. Alleluia, alleluia.

    GOSPEL OF THE MASS

    Lk 14:1, 7-11

    On a sabbath Jesus went to dine
    at the home of one of the leading Pharisees,
    and the people there were observing him carefully.

    He told a parable to those who had been invited,
    noticing how they were choosing the places of honor at the table.
    "When you are invited by someone to a wedding banquet,
    do not recline at table in the place of honor.
    A more distinguished guest than you may have been invited by him,
    and the host who invited both of you may approach you and say,
    'Give your place to this man,'
    and then you would proceed with embarrassment
    to take the lowest place.
    Rather, when you are invited,
    go and take the lowest place
    so that when the host comes to you he may say,
    'My friend, move up to a higher position.'
    Then you will enjoy the esteem of your companions at the table.
    For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled,
    but the one who humbles himself will be exalted."
