LITURGY OF THE WORD

First Reading: Acts 1:3-8 A Reading from the Acts of the Apostles. He presented himself alive to them by many proofs after he had suffered, appearing to them during forty days and speaking about the kingdom of God. While meeting with them, he enjoined them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for “the promise of the Father -about which you have heard me speak; for John baptized with water, but in a few days you will be baptized with the holy Spirit.”

When they had gathered together they asked him, “Lord, are you at this time going to restore the kingdom to Israel?” He answered them, “It is not for you to know the times or seasons that the Father has established by his own authority. But you will receive power when the holy Spirit comes upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, throughout Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” The word of the Lord. Response: Thanks be to God.

Responsorial Psalm: Psalm 104

Segunda Lectura: 1 Cor. 12: 4-13

Lectura de la primera Carta del Apóstol San Pablo a los Corintios Hay diversidad de carismas, pero el Espíritu es el mismo; diversidad de ministerios, pero el Señor es el mismo; diversidad de operaciones, pero es el mismo Dios que obra en todos.

A cada cual se le otorga la manifestación del Espíritu para provecho común, porque a uno se le da por el Espíritu palabra de sabiduría; a otro, palabra de ciencia según el mismo Espíritu; a otro, fe, en el mismo Espíritu; a otro, carismas de curaciones, en el único Espíritu; a otro, poder de milagros; a otro, profecía; a otro, discernimiento de espíritus; a otro, diversidad de lenguas; a otro, don de interpretarlas.

Pero todas estas cosas las obra un mismo y único Espíritu, distribuyéndolas a cada uno en particular según su voluntad. Pues del mismo modo que el cuerpo es uno, aunque tiene muchos miembros, y todos los miembros del cuerpo, no obstante, su pluralidad, no forman más que un solo cuerpo, así también Cristo.

Porque en un solo Espíritu hemos sido todos bautizados, para no formar más que un cuerpo, judíos y griegos, esclavos y libres. Y todos hemos bebido de un solo Espíritu. Palabra de Dios Te Alabamos Señor

Homily Presentation of Confirmation Candidates Profession of Faith

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, 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.

Lord, When You Came

Verse 1: Lord, when you came to the seashore, you weren’t seeking the wise or the wealthy. But only asking that I might follow.

Refrain: O Lord, in my eyes You were gazing, kindly smiling, my name You were saying. All I treasured, I have left on the sand there; close to You: I will find other seas.

Verse 2: Lord, you knew what my boat carried: neither money nor weapons for fighting. But nets for fishing, my daily labor.

Verse 3: Lord, have you need of my labor, hands for service? A heart made for loving? My arms for lifting the poor and broken?

Verse 4: Lord, send me where you would have me, to a village or heart of the city. I will remember that You are with me.
