INTRODUCTORY RITES

Greeting

The peace of the Lord be with you always.

And also with you.

Reception of the Sick B

Christ taught his disciples to be a community of love. In praying together, in sharing all things, and in caring for the sick, they recalled his words: `In so far as you did this to one of these, you did it to me.' We gather today to witness to this teaching and to pray in the name of Jesus the healer that the sick may be restored to health. Through this eucharist and anointing we invoke his healing power.

Let us pray.

Father,

you raised your Son’s cross

as the sign of victory and life.

May all who share in his suffering

find in these sacraments

a source of fresh courage and healing.

We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,

who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,

one God, for ever and ever.

Amen.

LITURGY OF THE WORD

First Reading: Acts 4:8-12

A reading from the Acts of the Apostles

[There is no other name but the name of Jesus by which we are saved.]

Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, said, 'Rulers of the people, and elders! If you are questioning us today about an act of kindness to a cripple, and asking us how he was healed, then I am glad to tell you all, and would indeed be glad to tell the whole people of Israel, that it was by the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene, the one you crucified, whom God raised from the dead, by this name and by no other that this man is able to stand up perfectly healthy, here in your presence, today. This is the stone rejected by you the builders, but which has proved to be the keystone. For of all the names in the world given to men, this is the only one by which we can be saved.'

This is the word of the Lord.

Thanks be to God.

Psalm: Ps 26

R. Put your hope in the Lord; take courage and be strong.

The Lord is my light and my help;

whom shall I fear?

The Lord is the stronghold of my life;

before whom shall I shrink? R.

There is one thing I ask of the Lord,

for this I long,

to live in the house of the Lord,

all the days of my life,

to savour the sweetness of the Lord,

to behold his temple. R.

For there he keeps me safe in his tent

in the day of evil.

He hides me in the shelter of his tent,

on a rock he sets me safe. R.

O Lord, hear my voice when I call;

have mercy and answer.

Of you my heart has spoken:

'Seek his face.' R.

It is your face, O Lord, that I seek;

hide not your face.

Dismiss not your servant in anger;

you have been my help. R.

Do not abandon or forsake me,

O God my help!

Though father and mother forsake me,

the Lord will receive me. R.

Gospel Acclamation: 2 Corinthians 1:3-4

Alleluia, alleluia!

Blessed be the Father of mercies and the God of all comfort,

who consoles us in all our afflictions.

Alleluia!

Gospel: Matthew 15:29-31

A reading from the holy Gospel according to Matthew

[Jesus heals large crowds]

Jesus reached the shores of the Sea of Galilee, and he went up into the hills. He sat there, and large crowds came to him bringing the lame, the crippled, the blind, the dumb and many others; these they put down at his feet, and he cured them. The crowds were astonished to see the dumb speaking, the cripples whole again, the lame walking and the blind with their sight, and they praised the God of Israel.

This is the gospel of the Lord.

Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.

[The Lord's Supper]

The day before he suffered

he took bread in his sacred hands

and looking up to heaven,

to you, his almighty Father,

he gave you thanks and praise.

He broke the bread,

gave it to his disciples, and said:

TAKE THIS, ALL OF YOU, AND EAT IT:

THIS IS MY BODY WHICH WILL BE GIVEN UP FOR YOU.

When supper was ended,

he took the cup.

Again he gave you thanks and praise,

gave the cup to his disciples, and said:

TAKE THIS, ALL OF YOU, AND DRINK FROM IT:

THIS IS THE CUP OF MY BLOOD,

THE BLOOD OF THE NEW AND EVERLASTING COVENANT.

IT WILL BE SHED FOR YOU AND FOR ALL

SO THAT SINS MAY BE FORGIVEN.

DO THIS IN MEMORY OF ME.

[Memorial Acclamation]

Let us proclaim the mystery of faith:

Christ has died,

Christ is risen,

Christ will come again.

Dying you destroyed our death,

rising you restored our life.

Lord Jesus, come in glory.

When we eat this bread and drink this cup,

we proclaim your death, Lord Jesus,

until you come in glory.

Lord, by your cross and resurrection

you have set us free.

You are the Saviour of the world.

[Memorial Prayer]

Father, we celebrate the memory of Christ, your Son.

We, your people and your ministers,

recall his passion,

his resurrection from the dead,

and his ascension into glory;

and from the many gifts you have given us

we offer to you, God of glory and majesty,

this holy and perfect sacrifice:

the bread of life

and the cup of eternal salvation.

Look with favour on these offerings

and accept them as once you accepted

the gifts of your servant Abel,

the sacrifice of Abraham, our father in faith,

and the bread and wine offered by your priest Melchisedech.

Almighty God,

we pray that your angel may take this sacrifice

to your altar in heaven.

Then, as we receive from this altar

the sacred body and blood of your Son,

let us be filled with every grace and blessing.

(Through Christ our Lord. Amen.)

[Intercessions: For the Dead]Remember, Lord, those who have died

and have gone before us marked with the sign of faith,

May these, and all who sleep in Christ,

find in your presence

light, happiness, and peace.

(Through Christ our Lord. Amen.)

some share in the fellowship of your apostles and martyrs,

with John the Baptist, Stephen, Matthias, Barnabas,

You fill them with life and goodness,

you bless them and make them holy.
