Gospel Acclamation

Nicene Creed I believe in one God, the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible and invisible. I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Only Begotten Son of God, born of the Father before all ages. God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father; through him all things were made; For us men and for our salvation he came down from heaven, (all bow) and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary, and became man. For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate, he suffered death and was buried, and rose again on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures. He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead and his kingdom will have no end. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified, who has spoken through the prophets. I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church. I confess one baptism for the forgiveness of sins and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come. Amen.

Practicing Catholics (those at Mass each week and regular at confession) are invited to receive the Sacrament. Non practicing Catholics should go to confession before receiving Holy Communion. Non Catholics are welcome to come for a blessing (cross your arms over your chest).

Communion Chant: In this Place

Page 4 1. To offer assistance when others are blind to the need, to give loving care to each other is planting God’s seed. Walking the promise and falling on mercy, believing we’ll walk with you. 2. Washing the wounds of division, we seek to ease pain. Sharing the burden of others, like God’s gentle rain. Befriending the one who is lonely and lost, believing we’ll walk with you. 3. We hold the key to our future as we share our souls, Nurturing love in a time when compassion unfolds. Dancing in joy, sharing in wonder the prayer that we sing to you.

Song of Praise: Jesus, Come to Us

Sending Forth: Prepare the Way of the Lord

Credo Niceno

Page 5

Creo en un solo Dios, Padre todopoderoso, Creador del cielo y de la tierra. Creo en un solo Señor, Jesucristo, Hijo único de Dios, nacido del Padre antes de todos los siglos: Dios de Dios, Luz de Luz, Dios verdadero de Dios verdadero, engendrado, no creado, de la misma naturaleza del Padre, por quien todo fue hecho; que por nosotros, los hombres, y por nuestras salvación bajó del cielo, Todos se inclinan: Y por obra del Espíritu Santo se encarnó de María, la Virgen, y se hizo hombre; Y por nuestra causa fue crucificado en tiempos de Poncio Pilato; padeció y fue sepultado, y resucitó al tercer día, según las Escrituras, y subió al cielo, y está sentado a la derecha del Padre; y de nuevo vendrá con gloria para juzgar a vivos y muertos, y su reino no tendrá fin. Creo en el Espíritu Santo, Señor y dador de vida, que procede del Padre y el Hijo, que con el Padre y el Hijo recibe una misma adoración y gloria, y que habló por los profetas. Creo en la Iglesia, que es una, santa, católica y apostólica. Confieso que hay un solo bautismo para el perdón de los pecados. Espero la resurrección de los muertos y la vida del mundo futuro. Amén.

Give and it will be given unto you III For me the first level of learning generosity came from my family. Not all of them were generous, but the strongest influences were. I mentioned my great aunt last week, but my grandparents were also very generous, not so much with money, because they really didn’t have much of that, but with time. For example my grandmother worked at JC Penney in the yardage department [boy does that date me…] and she sewed and helped other women to learn to sew. So far as I know she did not accept payment for those services. I always remember coming home from school [she lived around the corner from my grammar school] and there would be dresses and other garments hanging in the kitchen and during the afternoon people stopped by to pick them up. She seemed always willing to pitch in and help whether it was cooking or helping others in the neighborhood. I learned from her that when you are willing to give your time to those in need, it comes back to you. The scripture I have chosen as a title for these articles is “Give and it will be given to you;” Luke adds to that “good measure, packed together, shaken down and overflowing, it will be poured into your lap.” Luke 6:38 In other words if you give in an unselfconscious way, an abundance will be poured out upon you. My grandparents were lower working class folk, who had very little, but because they were willing to give what they had, there was always enough to go around and more. IHM pray for us. Fr. Jerry

Dad y se os Dara III Para mi, el primer nivel de aprender de la generosidad vino de mi familia. No todos ellos eran generosos, pero las fuertes influencias eran. Yo mencioné a mi Tia-Abuela la semana pasada, pero mis abuelos también eran muy generosos, no tanto con dinero, porque ellos realmente no tenian mucho pero con su tiempo. Por ejemplo mi abuela trabajo en JC Penney en el departamento de telas (caramba esa memoria enseña mi edad…..) ella cosia y ella enseño a muchas mujeres como coser. Por lo que yo se, ella no aceptaba pago por estos servicios. Siempre me recuerdo cuando llegaba a casa de la escuela (ella vivia alrededor de la cuadra de mi colegio de primaria) y alli habian vestidos y otros trajes colgando en la cocina y durante la tarde la gente venia a recogerlos. Ella siempre lista para ayudar asi sea cocinando o ayudando a otros en la vecindad. Yo aprendí de ella que cuando uno quiere dar su tiempo para ayudar a otros que lo necesitan, siempre uno lo recibirá de regreso. La Escritura que yo elegi para estos articulos es “Dad y se os Dará;” Lucas añade a eso “buena medida, empaquetando junto, revuelto y desbordandose, será arrojado en tus faldas” Lucas 6:38. En otras palabras si tú das de una manera conciente y sin egoismo, una abundancia te será dada. Mis abuelos erán de una clase media trabajadora, quienes tenian muy poco, pero porque ellos estaban siempre listos para dar lo que tenian, siempre habia suficiente para todos y más. ICM Ora por nosotros. Fr. Jerry
