Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity
Processional Hymn - 567 - Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God, Almighty
Holy, holy, holy! Lord God Almighty!
Early in the morning our song shall rise to thee.
Holy, holy, holy! Merciful and mighty!
God in three Persons, blessed Trinity!
Holy, holy, holy! All the saints adore thee,
Casting down their golden crowns around the glassy sea,
Cherubim and seraphim falling down before thee,
God everlasting through eternity.
Holy, holy, holy! Though the darkness hide thee,
Though the eye made blind by sin thy glory may not see,
Only thou art holy, there is none beside thee,
Perfect in pow’r, in love, and purity.
Holy, holy, holy! Lord God Almighty!
All thy works shall praise thy name, in earth and sky and sea.
Holy, holy, holy! Merciful and mighty,
God in three persons, blessed Trinity.
First Reading - Proverbs 8:22-31
Thus says the wisdom of God:
“The LORD possessed me, the beginning of his ways, the forerunner of his prodigies of long ago; from of old I was poured forth, at the first, before the earth.
“When there were no depths I was brought forth, when there were no fountains or springs of water; before the mountains were settled into place, before the hills, I was brought forth; while as yet the earth and fields were not made, nor the first clods of the world.
“When the Lord established the heavens I was there, when he marked out the vault over the face of the deep; when he made firm the skies above, when he fixed fast the foundations of the earth; when he set for the sea its limit, so that the waters should not transgress his command; then was I beside him as his craftsman, and I was his delight day by day, playing before him all the while, playing on the surface of his earth; and I found delight in the human race.”
Responsorial Psalm - Psalm 8
R. O Lord, our God, how wonderful your name, how wonderful your name in all the earth!
When I behold the heavens, the work of your hands, the moon and the stars which you arranged,
What is man, son of man that you care for him, and you keep him in mind?
R. O Lord, our God, how wonderful your name, how wonderful your name in all the earth!
You have made him little less than the angels, crowned him with glory and honor.
You have given him rule over the works of your hands, putting all things under his feet:
R. O Lord, our God, how wonderful your name, how wonderful your name in all the earth!
All sheep and oxen, beasts of the field, birds of the air, fish of the sea.
R. O Lord, our God, how wonderful your name, how wonderful your name in all the earth!
Second Reading - Romans 5:1-5
Brothers and sisters:
Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith to this grace in which we stand, and we boast in hope of the glory of God.
Not only that, but we even boast of our afflictions, knowing that affliction produces endurance, and endurance, proven character, and proven character, hope, and hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit that has been given to us.
Gospel - John 16:12-15
Jesus said to his disciples:
“I have much more to tell you, but you cannot bear it now.
But when he comes, the Spirit of truth, he will guide you to all truth.
He will not speak on his own, but he will speak what he hears, and will declare to you the things that are coming.
He will glorify me, because he will take from what is mine and declare it to you.
Everything that the Father has is mine; for this reason I told you that he will take from what is mine and declare it to you.”
Prayer for Our Lady of Angels Parish
Heavenly Father, we thank you for gathering us together and calling us to serve as your disciples.
You have charged us through your Son, Jesus, with the great mission of evangelizing and witnessing your love to the world.
Send your Holy Spirit to guide us as we discern your will for the spiritual renewal of our parish.
Give us strength, courage, and clear vision as we use our gifts to serve you.
We entrust our parish family to the care of Mary, our mother, and ask for her intercession and guidance, as we strive to build a parish that loves God, embraces all people, and shares the Gospel joyfully.
Offertory Hymn - 678 - Dwelling Place
I fall on my knees to the Father of Jesus,
The Lord who has shown us, the glory of God.
May Christ in His love give us strength for our living,
The strength of the Spirit, the glory of God.
May Christ find a dwelling place of faith in our hearts,
May our lives be rooted in love, rooted in love.
May grace and peace be yours in God our Father,
And in the Son.
May Christ find a dwelling place of faith in our hearts,
May our lives be rooted in love, rooted in love.
