All: Amen. THE LITURGY OF THE WORD Congregation Sits FIRST READING A reading from the book of the Apocalypse 7:2-4. 9-14 John, saw another angel rising where the sun rises, carrying the seal of the living God; he called in a powerful voice to the four angels whose duty was to devastate land and sea, ‘Wait before you do any damage on land or at sea or to the trees, until we have put the seal on the foreheads of the servants of our God.

Then | heard how many were sealed: a hundred and forty-four thousand, out of all the tribes of Israel.

After that | saw a huge number, impossible to count, of people from every nation, race, tribe and language; they were standing in front of the throne and in front of the Lamb, dressed in white robes and holding palms in their hands.

They shouted aloud, ‘Victory to our God, who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!

And all the angels who were standing in a circle round the throne, surrounding the elders and the four animals, prostrated themselves before the throne, and touched the ground with their foreheads, worshipping God with these words: ‘Amen.

Praise and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving and honour and power and strength to our God for ever and ever.

Amen.’ One of the elders then spoke, and asked me,‘Do you know who these people are, dressed in white robes, and where they have come from?’ | answered him,‘You can tell me, my Lord.

Then he said, ‘These are the people who have been through the great persecution, and they have washed their robes white again in the blood of the Lamb.

The word of the Lord All: Thanks be to God.

RESPONSORIAL PSALM Ps 23:1-6. Rcf. v6 Such are the men who seek your face, O Lord. 1. The Lord's is the earth and its fullness, the world and all its peoples.

It is he who set it on the seas; on the waters he made it firm. 2. Who shall climb the mountain of the Lord?

Who shall stand in his holy place? The man with clean hands and pure heart, who desires not worthless things. 3. He shall receive blessings from the Lord and reward from the God who saves him.

Such are the men who seek him, seek the face of the God of Jacob.

SECOND READING A reading from the first letter of St John 3:1-3 Think of the love that the Father has lavished on us, by letting us be called God's children; and that is what we are.

Because the world refused to acknowledge him, therefore it does not acknowledge us.

My dear people, we are already the children of God but what we are to be in the future has not yet been revealed; all we know is, that when it is revealed Page 28 4VSFMZFWFSZPOFXIPFOUFSUBJOTUIJTIPQF 5IFXPSEPGUIF-PSE 5IBOLTCFUP(PE Congregation stands "$$-"."5*0/ $PNFUPNF TBZTUIF-PSE 1SJFTU 5IF-PSECFXJUIZPV 1SJFTU "SFBEJOHGSPNUIFIPMZ BUUIFX (MPSZUPZPV 0-PSE 4FFJOHUIFDSPXET +FTVTXFOUVQUIFIJMM5IFSFIFTBUEPXO BOEXBTKPJOFECZIJTEJTDJQMFT5IFOIFCFHBOUPTQFBL5IJT JTXIBUIFUBVHIUUIFN UIFZTIBMMIBWFUIFFBSUIGPSUIFJSIFSJUBHF TQFBLBMMLJOETPGDBMVNOZBHBJOTUZPVPONZBDDPVOU3FKPJDF BOECFHMBE 5IF(PTQFMPGUIF-PSE 1SBJTFUPZPV-PSE+FTVT$ISJTU Congregation sits Congregation stand UIF0OMZ#FHPUUFO4POPG(PE (PEGSPN(PE USVF(PEGSPNUSVF(PE CFHPUUFO IFDBNFEPXOGSPNIFBWFO (bow your head up to the words ‘and became man’) CFTUPXPOVT BOBCVOEBODFPGUIFSFDPODJMJBUJPOXJUIZPV GPSXIJDIXFFBSOFTUMZMPOH 5ISPVHIPVS-PSE+FTVT$ISJTU ZPVS4PO 4QJSJU POF(PE "NFO+PIO GPVSBOHFMTXIPTFEVUZXBTUPEFWBTUBUFMBOEBOETFB b8BJU PVS(PE`5IFO*IFBSEIPXNBOZXFSFTFBMFEBIVOESFEBOE GPSUZGPVSUIPVTBOE "GUFSUIBU*TBXBIVHFOVNCFS SBDF USJCFBOEMBOHVBHF UIFZ XFSFTUBOEJOHJOGSPOUPGUIFUISPOFBOEJOGSPOUPGUIF-BNC ESFTTFEJOXIJUFSPCFTBOEIPMEJOHQBMNTJOUIFJSIBOET5IFZ TIPVUFEBMPVE b7JDUPSZUPPVS(PE XIPTJUTPOUIFUISPOF BOE SPVOEUIFUISPOF BOEUPVDIFEUIF XPSETb"NFO1SBJTFBOEHMPSZBOEXJTEPNBOEUIBOLTHJWJOH 0OFPGUIFFMEFSTUIFOTQPLF BOEBTLFENF b%PZPV BOEXIFSF `*BOTXFSFEIJN PVDBOUFMMNF NZ -PSE`5IFOIFTBJE b5IFTFBSFUIFQFPQMFXIPIBWFCFFO 5IFXPSEPGUIF-PSE 5IBOLTCFUP(PE 3 4VDIBSFUIFNFOXIPTFFLZPVSGBDF 0-PSE 5IF-PSE`TJTUIFFBSUIBOEJUTGVMMOFTT *UJTIFXIPTFUJUPOUIFTFBT POUIFXBUFSTIFNBEFJUp SN 3 8IPTIBMMDMJNCUIFNPVOUBJOPGUIF-PSE 8IPTIBMMTUBOEJOIJTIPMZQMBDF 5IFNBOXJUIDMFBOIBOETBOEQVSFIFBSU 3 4VDIBSFUIFNFOXIPTFFLIJN 3 "SFBEJOHGSPNUIFp STUMFUUFSPG4U+PIO 5IJOLPGUIFMPWFUIBUUIF'BUIFSIBTMBWJTIFEPOVT BOEUIBUJTXIBUXFBSF .

Through Christ our Lord. All: Amen Congregation stands EUCHARISTIC PRAYER III 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. PREFACE (The glory of Jerusalem, our mother) Priest: It is truly right and just, our duty and our salvation, always and everywhere to give you thanks, Lord, holy Father, almighty and eternal God.

For today by your gift we celebrate the festival of your city, the heavenly Jerusalem, our mother, where the great array of our brothers and sisters already gives you eternal praise.

Towards her, we eagerly hasten, as pilgrims advancing by faith, rejoicing in the glory bestowed upon those exalted members of the Church through whom you give us, in our frailty, both strength and good example.

And so, we glorify you with the multitude of Saints and Angels, as with one voice of praise we acclaim: ACCLAMATION All: Holy, Holy, Holy Lord God of hosts.

Heaven and earth are full of your glory.

Hosanna in the highest. Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.

Hosanna in the highest. Congregation kneels Priest: You are indeed Holy, O Lord, and all you have created rightly gives you praise, for through your Son our Lord Jesus Christ, by the power and working of the Holy Spirit, you give life to all things and make them holy, and you never cease to gather a people to yourself, so that from the rising of the sun to its setting a pure sacrifice may be offered to your name.

Therefore, O Lord, we humbly implore you: by the same Spirit graciously make holy these gifts we have brought to you for consecration, that they may become the Body and + Blood of your Son our Lord Jesus Christ, at whose command we celebrate these mysteries.

For on the night he was betrayed he himself took bread, and, giving you thanks, he said the blessing, broke the bread 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, giving you thanks, he said the blessing, and gave the chalice 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.

All: Save us, Saviour of the world, for by your Cross and Resurrection you have set us free.

Priest: Therefore, O Lord, as we celebrate the memorial of the saving Passion of your Son, his wondrous Resurrection and Ascension into heaven, and as we look forward to his second coming, we offer you in thanksgiving this holy and living sacrifice.

Look, we pray, upon the oblation of your Church and, recognising the sacrificial Victim by whose death you willed to reconcile us to yourself, grant that we, who are nourished by the Body and Blood of your Son and filled with his Holy Spirit, may become one body, one spirit in Christ. May he make of us an eternal offering to you, so that we may obtain an inheritance with your elect, especially with the most Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of God, with blessed Joseph, her spouse, with your blessed Apostles and glorious Martyrs with Saint Patrick and with all the Saints, on whose constant intercession in your presence we rely for unfailing help.

May this Sacrifice of our reconciliation, we pray, O Lord, advance the peace and salvation of all the world.

Be pleased to confirm in faith and charity your pilgrim Church on earth, with your servant Leo our Pope and Nour Bishop, the Order of Bishops, all the clergy, and the entire people you have gained for your own.

Listen graciously to the prayers of this family, whom you have summoned before you: in your compassion, Omerciful Father, gather to yourself all your children scattered throughout the world.

To our departed brothers and sisters and to all who were pleasing to you at their passing from this life, give kind admittance to your kingdom.

There we hope to enjoy for ever the fullness of your glory through Christ our Lord, through whom you bestow on the world all that is good.

Priest: Through him, and with him, and in him, O God, almighty Father, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, all glory and honour is yours, for ever and ever.

All: Amen. Congregation stands Page 30 THE COMMUNION RITE Priest: At the Saviour'scommand and formed by divine teaching, we dare to say: All: Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name; thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

Priest: Deliver us, Lord, we pray, from every evil, graciously grant peace in our days, that, by the help of your mercy, we may be always free from sin and safe from all distress, as we await the blessed hope and the coming of our Saviour, Jesus Christ. All: For the kingdom, the power and the glory are yours now and for ever.

Priest: Lord Jesus Christ, who said to your Apostles: Peace | leave you, my peace | give you, look not on our sins, but on the faith of your Church, and graciously grant her peace and unity in accordance with your will.

Who live and reign for ever and ever. All: Amen.

Priest: The peace of the Lord be with you always.

All: And with your spirit. Priest: May this mingling of the Body and Blood of our Lord Jesus Christ bring eternal life to us who receive it.

All: Lamb of God, you take away the sins of the world, have mercy on us.

Lamb of God, you take away the sins of the world, have mercy on us.

Lamb of God, you take away the sins of the world, grant us peace.

Congregation kneels The celebrant says quietly: Lord Jesus Christ, Son of the living God, who, by the will of the Father and the work of the Holy Spirit, through your Death gave life to the world, free me by this, your most holy Body and Blood, from all my sins and from every evil; keep me always faithful to your commandments, and never let me be parted from you.

INVITATION TO HOLY COMMUNION Priest: Behold the Lamb of God, behold him who takes away the sins of the world.

Blessed are those called to the supper of the Lamb.

All: Lord, | am not worthy that you should enter under my roof, but only say the word and my soul shall be healed.

Priest: May the Body of Christ keep me safe for eternal life.

Priest: May the Blood of Christ keep me safe for eternal life.

COMMUNION ANTIPHON Mt 5:8-10 All: Blessed are the clean of heart, for they shall see God.

Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called children of God.

Blessed are they who are persecuted for the sake of righteousness, for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven.

Purifying the chalice the celebrant says guietly: What has passed our lips as food, O Lord, may we possess in purity of heart, that what has been given to us in time may be our healing for eternity.

PRAYER AFTER COMMUNION Congregation kneels Priest: Let us pray.

As we adore you, O God, who alone are holy and wonderful in all your Saints, we implore your grace, so that, coming to perfect holiness in the fullness of your love, we may pass from this pilgrim table to the banquet of our heavenly homeland.

Through Christ our Lord. All: Amen THE CONCLUDING RITES Priest: The Lord be with you.

All: And with your spirit. Priest: May God, the glory and joy of the Saints, who has caused you to be strengthened by means of their outstanding prayers, bless you with unending blessings.

All: Amen Priest: Freed through their intercession from present ills and formed by the example of their holy way of life, may you be ever devoted to serving God and your neighbour.

All: Amen Priest: So that, together with all, you may possess the joys of the homeland, where Holy Church rejoices that her children are admitted in perpetual peace to the company of the citizens of heaven.

All: Amen Priest: And may the blessing of almighty God, the Father, and the Son, + and the Holy Spirit, come down on you and remain with you for ever.

All: Amen Then the celebrant, with hands joined and facing the people, says: Priest: Goin peace.

All: Thanks be to God. imprimatur - nihil obstat: + Most Rev. Alan McGuckian, SJ, Bishop of Down and Connor.
