ANNOUNCER: From the historic Loretto Abbey Chapel... With the kind cooperation of the Toronto Catholic District School Board... The National Catholic Broadcasting Council presents The Daily TV Mass. In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. The grace and peace of our Lord Jesus Christ, the love of the Father, the friendship of the Holy Spirit be with you all. CONGREGATION: And with your spirit. Welcome to the celebration of this Daily Televised Mass in the season of Lent. I am Fr. Michael Coutts The televising of this Mass is made possible by a contribution from three donors. The first is Margaret Geraghty from London, Ontario, for peace and joy in the Forgeron and Geraghty families. In celebration for her 80th birthday today. A happy birthday to you. And in thanksgiving for all the blessings she has received through her life. The second is an anonymous donor from North York, Ontario, for world peace. And the third is Jeanne Dallaire from Calgary, Alberta, in thanksgiving for family blessings. For peace in the world and for victims of the COVID-19 virus. Our thanks to the donors for the gift of this Mass. As we celebrate this Eucharist, we remember once again Isaiah calling us to fasting. Calling us to prayer and calling us to almsgiving. Let us ask the Lord, give us those graces. You were sent to heal the contrite of heart. Lord, have mercy. CONGREGATION: Lord, have mercy. FR. MICHAEL COUTTS: You came to call sinners. Christ, have mercy. CONGREGATION: Christ, have mercy. FR. MICHAEL COUTTS: You are seated at the right hand of the Father to intercede for us. Lord, have mercy. CONGREGATION: Lord, have mercy. May Almighty God have mercy on us. Forgive us our sins and bring us to everlasting life. - CONGREGATION: Amen. - Let us pray. Almighty and ever-living God, look with compassion on our weakness and ensure us your protection by stretching forth the right hand of Your majesty through our Lord Jesus Christ, Your Son, who lives and governs with You in the unity of the Holy Spirit. God, forever and ever. CONGREGATION: Amen. A reading from the book of the Prophet Isaiah. Thus says the Lord. If you remove the yoke from among you, the pointing of the finger, the speaking of evil. If you offer your food to the hungry and satisfy the needs of the afflicted, then your light shall rise in the darkness and your gloom be like the noonday. The Lord will guide you continually and satisfy your needs in parched places and make your bones strong and you shall be like a watered garden. Like a spring of water whose waters never fail. Your ancient ruins shall be rebuilt. You shall raise up the foundations of many generations. You shall be called the repairer of the breach, the restorer of streets to live in. If you refrain from trampling the Sabbath from pursuing your own interests on my holy day. If you call the Sabbath a delight and the holy day of the Lord honourable, if you honour it, not going your own ways serving your own interests or pursuing your own affairs then you shall take delight in the Lord. And I will make you ride upon the heights of the earth. I will feed you with the heritage of your ancestor Jacob for the mouth of the Lord has spoken. The word of the Lord. CONGREGATION: Thanks be to God. # (Organ playing) # # Incline Your ear, O Lord # # And answer me # # For I am poor and needy # # Preserve my life # # For I am devoted to You # # Save Your servant # # Who trusts in You # # Teach me Your way, O Lord # # You are my God # # Be gracious to me, O Lord # # For to You # # Do I cry all day long # # Gladden the soul # # Of Your servant # # For to You, O Lord # # I lift up my soul # # For You, O Lord # # Are good and forgiving # # Abounding in steadfast love # # To all who call on You # # Give here, O Lord # # To my prayer # # Listen to my cry # # Of supplication # # (Organ playing) # # Praise to You, Lord # # King of eternal glory # # Praise to You, Lord # # King of eternal glory # # I do not wish the sinner to die # # Says the Lord # # But you turn to me and live # # Praise to You, Lord # # King of eternal glory # The Lord be with you. CONGREGATION: And with your spirit. A reading from the holy gospel according to Luke. CONGREGATION: Glory to You, O Lord. After healing a man who was paralyzed, Jesus left the house where He had been teaching and He saw a tax collector named Levi sitting at the tax booths and He said to him, "Follow me." And he got up, left everything and followed Him. Then Levi gave a great banquet for Him in his house and there was a large crowd of tax collectors and others sitting at the table with them. The Pharisees and the scribes were complaining to His disciple, "Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?" Jesus answered, "Those who are well have no need of a physician but those who are sick do. I have come not to call the righteous, but the sinners to repentance." The gospel of the Lord. CONGREGATION: Praise to You, Lord Jesus Christ. We carry on today with Isaiah speaking to us about prayer, fasting, and almsgiving. And He speaks about fasting should have an internal change. Should have a metanoia. A change of not only our behaviour, but of our very heart. Otherwise, it is a passing fancy and a fad. And he speaks about it in tangible ways. He speaks about taking the yoke out of, off the neck of people. Freeing captives, sharing bread with the hungry. And He says if you do this, then you will actually see things happening in your life. And He goes into details to explain it and that would be so wonderful for us. He says you'll have light in your life so that you and I can make decisions about things that baffle us and confuse us. It will strengthen your bones and as I get older, believe me, I would be very grateful for that. And it will also change the very land and the city in which you live in. And we have found out that as we have kept these rules and regulation as we have kept these laws of fasting, of prayer and almsgiving. Things have actually begun to, improve ourselves in our society today. Gradually, things are opening. Restaurants and theatres and museums. Non-essential items. We have been able to go to gymnasiums, to hair salons. We're allowed to go to parks. We are allowed to have parties together and in our church we are so happy now that we don't have to register in order to find a place within a church. We can get back to the sacraments of the Eucharist, which we are celebrating just now and the sacrament of reconciliation. But more especially, there are other sacraments which involve not only the sacraments but also a celebration afterwards. Baptisms and marriages and funerals. And so many people have said we are missing all that. But as we get out of this virus situation, and as we continue with our Lenten practices, we will actually see that we are pretty safe nowadays. Will the virus get over, not by any means. Will we have another variant? Most probably. But we have realized that we can live with it. Those who are vaccinated and the anti-vaxxers, we have learned to live with a certain amount of respect and my prayer and hope is that we may even learn to love one another in spite of our differences. And this comes because of our practices, because we can control ourselves through prayer, through fasting, through almsgiving. Elderly people, we find now can go out and get their dose, a second dose, or a third dose, or a booster shot. We will soon find that this virus will be more or less like living with the flu pandemic. We will take our flu shots. We will take our booster shots against the virus. Some have never taken flu shots before and some will never take shots against the virus. And yet, we manage to survive together. We managed to live together a life that we are called to. People say we want to go back to normal. And what is the normal all about? Do you really want to go from nine to five jobs in which we are rushed to jobs in traffic jams and then after rush our children to different practices. You know, volleyball and soccer and piano practices, and judo practices, and all this. Many of them said, "Thank God we don't have to do that anymore." And we have learned to live with one another, to respect one another in spite of the differences. And Isaiah says all this comes because our fasting has changed us from right within ourselves. And then, he moves on. Isaiah moves on from sacrifice, from fasting, from the prayers and almsgiving to the Sabbath. And he says remember the Sabbath. It is important that throughout all these things that we go to the source of everything and namely, that is God Himself. Throughout the Exodus experience we realize that God was in charge. Every now and then when they complain and they got angry during the Exodus experience. God did not strike them down. God tolerated them. God allowed them to complain and then God fed them with manna in the desert. If you go to Egypt now, if you go to the Sinai Desert nowadays, you'll actually see manna. It's not that it wasn't there before, but they saw in this the hand and the finger of God that is caring for them. And that is why it is important that we keep the Sabbath. It is important that we realize that one day is the Lord's day and that we should rest from all of the things that you and I have been doing in order that we can give glory to God. And so, we come to the gospel today where the disciples are describing the Pharisees said to the disciples. "Why doesn't your master not fast like all of us?" Jesus, in fact, lived with the sinners and the tax collectors and it was not good for a rabbi to do that. Jesus took delight in their company. Jesus loved to eat with them. Jesus loved to say, "Salvation is for all." And so, we come into 2022 and we still find scribes and Pharisees. This time they're not complaining that Jesus is eating with tax collectors and sinners, they're complaining the tax collectors and sinners are eating with Jesus. You and I go up for communion. When I go up to communion and I hold the host in my hand and said, "Lord, I am not worthy that You should come under my roof." And then, daily, I go up to the Lord and receive it. It'll be pretty hypocritical on my part after receiving the Lord and saying I'm not worthy. Just to turn around and say, "You and you and you cannot come up to communion because you're married and you're divorced and remarried or they know what they are doing. They are grown-ups. Treat them like grown-ups. They know what the Catholic Catechism is teaching. You and I have got no right to be judge, jury, and executioner. And Pope Francis says that quite clearly. Pope Francis has said, "You are not to judge the other people." And where does he learn this from? He learns it from Jesus Himself. When Peter went up to Jesus and says, What's happening with this guy called John? You know Your disciple? In John 21, Jesus says to Peter, you mind your own business. You get your act together. And so, Jesus tells us over here. We are called to salvation. Jesus finds His pleasure with sinners and tax collectors and that is a blessing indeed during the season of Lent. Let us pray together. For all those in the Daily Televised Mass community who have been asked to be included in our Prayer Intention Book. Especially for those who are looking for a deeper awareness of God in everyday life. We pray to the Lord. CONGREGATION: Lord, hear our prayer. Loving and gracious God. Save Your people and bless Your inheritance. We pray to the Lord. Lord, hear our prayer. Loving God, show Your love to those who are suffering and open the eyes of their vision to Your revelation. We pray to the Lord. CONGREGATION: Lord, hear our prayer. Gracious and loving God, as we continue during this season of Lent, grant us Your blessings and help us to be faithful to our resolutions through Christ our Lord. CONGREGATION: Amen. Blessed are You, Lord, God of all creation. For through Your goodness we have this bread we offer You. Fruit of the earth and work of human hands, it will become for us the bread of life. CONGREGATION: Blessed be God forever. Blessed are you, Lord, God of all creation. For through Your goodness, we have this wine we offer You, fruit of the vine and work of human hands. It will become for us our spiritual drink. CONGREGATION: Blessed be God forever. Lord God, be pleased to accept these gifts that we offer to You with humble and with contrite hearts. Pray, my sisters, my brothers, that this our sacrifice be acceptable to God, the Almighty Father. CONGREGATION: May the Lord accept the sacrifice at your hands for the praise and glory of His name, for our good and the good of all His Holy Church. Accept, we pray, O Lord, the sacrifice of conciliation and praise and grant that cleansed by its working we may offer minds pleasing to You through Christ, our Lord. CONGREGATION: Amen. The Lord be with you. CONGREGATION: And with your spirit. Lift up your hearts. CONGREGATION: We lift them up to the Lord. Let us give thanks to the Lord, our God. CONGREGATION: It is right and just. 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. Through Christ, our Lord. For by Your gracious gift, each year, Your faithful await the sacred paschal feast with joy of minds made pure so that more eagerly intent on prayer and on the works of charity and participating in the mysteries by which they have been reborn. They may be led to the fullness of grace that you bestow on Your sons and daughters. And so, with the angels and archangels with thrones and dominions and with all the hosts and powers of Heaven, we sing the hymn of Your glory as without end. We acclaim. # (Organ playing) # # 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 # You are indeed Holy, O Lord. The fount of all holiness. Make holy, therefore, - (Chimes ringing) - these gifts we pray. By sending down Your spirit upon them like the dewfall so that they may become for us the Body and the Blood of our Lord Jesus Christ. At the time He was betrayed and entered willingly into His passion. He took bread and giving thanks, broke it, 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." (Chimes ringing) In a similar way, when supper was ended, He took the chalice and once more giving thanks, He 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." (Chimes ringing) # The mystery of faith # # We proclaim Your death, O Lord # # And profess Your resurrection # # Until You come again # Therefore, as we celebrate the memorial of His death and Resurrection, we offer You, Lord, the Bread of Life and the Chalice of Salvation. Giving thanks that You have held us worthy to be in Your presence and minister to You. Humbly, we pray that partaking of the Body and Blood of Christ, we may be gathered into one by the Holy Spirit. Remember Lord, Your Church spread throughout the world and bring her to the fullness of charity. Together with Francis, our Pope, Thomas, our Bishop. The bishops across Canada and all the clergy and this entire people of God. Remember, also, our brothers and sisters who have fallen asleep in the hope of the Resurrection and all who have died in Your mercy. Welcome them into the light of Your face. Have mercy on us all that with the blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of God, with blessed Joseph, her spouse, with the blessed Apostles, and with all the Saints who have pleased You throughout the ages. We may merit to be co-heirs to eternal life and praise and glorify You through Your Son, Jesus Christ. # 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 # # Forever and ever # # Amen # # Amen # # Amen # At the Saviour's command and formed by divine teaching, we now dare to say 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. Deliver us, Lord, from every evil. Graciously, grant peace in our day that by the help of Your mercy we may be always free from sin, safe from all distress as we await the blessed hope and the coming of our Saviour, Jesus Christ. For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are Yours, now and forever. Lord Jesus Christ, who said to Your Apostles, "Peace, I leave you. My peace, I give you." Look not on our sins, but on the faith of this Your church and graciously grant her peace and unity in accordance with Your will who live and reign forever and ever." CONGREGATION: Amen. Peace of the Lord be with you always. CONGREGATION: And with your spirit. Let us share with this sign of peace wherever you are. # (Organ playing) # # 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 # Behold the Lamb of God.

(Chimes ringing) ANNOUNCER: Please join me now in this act of spiritual communion. # Let us pray.
