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. Welcome to the celebration of the Daily TV Mass. I'm Fr. Ernie De Ciccio. The televising of this Mass is made possible by the contribution from Michael Martel from Nova Scotia. This Mass is offered in memory of his father, Mickey. Our thanks to Michael Martel for choosing to remember his deceased family member in this way. This sacred celebration will be seen by tens of thousands of people across Canada and around the world, and on their behalf, I thank you. In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. CONGREGANTS: Amen. The grace and peace of our Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Spirit be with you all. CONGREGANTS: And with your spirit. My dear brothers and sisters, as we gather during this season of Lent, we call to mind our need for God in our lives. We recognize especially our human weakness, and we ask the Lord to give us strength and mercy and peace. You were sent to heal the contrite of heart. Lord, have mercy. CONGREGANTS: Lord, have mercy. ERNESTO: You came to call sinners. Christ, have mercy. CONGREGANTS: Christ, have mercy. ERNESTO: You are seated at the right hand of the Father to intercede for us. Lord, have mercy. CONGREGANTS: Lord, have mercy. May almighty God have mercy on us, forgive us our sins, and bring us to everlasting life. CONGREGANTS: Amen. Let us pray. Prompt our actions with your inspiration, we pray, O Lord, and further them with your constant help, that all we do may always begin from you and by you be brought to completion through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God forever and ever. CONGREGANTS: Amen. A reading from the book of Deuteronomy. "Moses spoke to the whole people of Israel, saying, 'See, I have set before you today life and prosperity, death and adversity. If you obey the commandments of the Lord your God that I am commanding you today, by loving the Lord your God, walking in his ways, and observing his commandments, decrees, and ordinances, then you shall live and become numerous, and the Lord your God will bless you in the land that you are entering to possess. But if your heart turns away and you do not hear, but are led astray to bow down to other gods and serve them, I declare to you today that you shall perish; you shall not live long in the land that you are crossing the Jordan to enter and possess. I call heaven and earth to witness against you today that I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Choose life so that you and your descendants may live, loving the Lord your God, obeying him, and holding fast to him; for that means life to you and length of days, so that you may live in the land that the Lord swore to give to your ancestors, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.'" The word of the Lord. CONGREGANTS: Thanks be to God. # Happy are they # # Who hope # # In the Lord # # Happy are those who do not follow # # The advice of the wicked # # Or take the path that sinners tread # # Or sit in the seat # # Of scoffers # # But their delight # # Is in the law of the Lord # # And on his love they meditate # # Day and night # # Happy are they # # Who hope # # In the Lord # # They are like trees # # Planted by streams of water # # Which yield their fruit # # In its season # # And their leaves do not wither # # In all that they do # # They prosper # # Happy are they # # Who hope # # In the Lord # # The wicked are not so # # But are like chaff # # That the wind drives away # # The Lord watches over # # The way of the righteous # # But the way of the wicked # # Will perish # # Happy are they # # Who hope # # In the Lord # # # Praise to you, Lord # # King of eternal glory # # Praise to you, Lord # # King of eternal glory # # Repent, says the Lord # # The kingdom of heaven # # Is at hand # # Praise to you, Lord # # King of eternal glory # The Lord be with you. CONGREGANTS: And with your spirit. A reading from the Holy Gospel according to Luke. ERNESTO AND CONGREGANTS: Glory to you, O Lord. ERNESTO: "Jesus spoke to his disciples and sternly ordered them not to tell anyone: 'The Son of Man must undergo great suffering and be rejected by the elders, chief priests, and scribes and be killed and on the third day be raised.' Then he said to them all, 'If any want to become my followers, let them deny themselves and take up their cross daily and follow me. For those who want to save their life will lose it, and those who lose their life for my sake will save it. What does it profit them if they gain the whole world, but lose or forfeit themselves?'" The gospel of the Lord. ERNESTO AND CONGREGANTS: Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ. ERNESTO: We've only just started Lent, and today's gospel reminds us of what this is all about: remembering that Jesus suffered and died for us and for our salvation. But Lent is not just about remembering what Jesus did. But it's a call for us to walk in his footsteps. The words of today's gospel-- If we want to be his followers, then we have to deny ourselves and take up our cross daily. That might not be a very attractive message to some people. I'll never forget when I was a young university student and belonged to a group of Christians who liked to come together and pray, and we would put on these coffeehouses to spread the word and to try to turn people on to the gospel, to Christ. And the message usually had to be, "Follow Jesus, and life's going to be wonderful." And then one year, one of our guest speakers stood up and said, "Accept Jesus into your life, and life's going to be hard." And I could see some of the leaders of our group saying, "Shut up! Don't say that kind of stuff! You're going to turn them off!" But that's the truth, isn't it? We follow Jesus not because we're expecting to be given an easy life. We follow Jesus because we want to walk in his footsteps, and walking in the footsteps of Jesus means joining ourselves to Christ even in suffering. You know, there's a word that's not very popular nowadays. It's called "sacrifice." It's almost fallen out of our vocabulary, eh? Sacrifice. Do we understand that life involves sacrifice? Sacrificing of our own selves, to the glory of God, yes, but also for the good of our brothers and sisters. I have to teach marriage classes for our young couples preparing for the sacrament, and I remind them, being husband and wife is going to involve some sacrifice. It's not about either of you winning all the time. And it's not even about your marriage being 50/50, because as husband and wife, it's going to be 100/100. You have to give it your all, and that means sometimes sacrificing for the good of your partner. Parents do this, of course, for children. How many sleepless nights do they have to go when the children are newborn, when they're toddlers, when they're growing up and going to school, when they're teenagers? And parents never stop being parents. They'll spend the rest of the their life worrying about their kids and, yes, sacrificing for them, and I think it's beautiful when even children learn to sacrifice for their parents. We have huge populations of seniors in most of our countries nowadays. And it's not an easy thing to give up our own priorities, our own lives to make sure that our seniors are well looked after, provided for. Are we ready to sacrifice for the good of others? And you know that Lent is actually a season of sacrifice. When I was young, we learned that word. We had to sacrifice something for 40 days. And when I was a kid, of course, it meant giving up chocolate or chips or some other little thing like that, but maybe we should think of what's a more modern thing to sacrifice in our own day and age. We're in 2022. We can live without chocolate and chips. How many of you can live without your cellphone at the dinner table? I tell that to children when they're preparing for communion. "Why don't you turn off your cellphone and talk to your parents instead? Or even turn off the TV while you're having a meal together? You ever think of sacrificing those kind of things?" Let's use these 40 days to reflect on some of the stuff that we've made too important in our own lives. It shouldn't take a disaster, a calamity for us to realize that we can live without some of those things. You know, sometimes, you hear about these tornados hitting in some areas, and everything is destroyed. And survivors will say, "I'm alive. I've got my family. I'm blessed. The other stuff can be replaced." I've gotten into a few car accidents into my life, and I've had to go by car accidents too many times. And what an inconvenience, eh, when you're stuck on the highway and you got to wait two hours, not going anywhere. Then you realize somebody died in that accident, and you say, "That could have been me! I'm blessed. So what that I'm inconvenienced?" So, this Lent, let's focus on what's really more important, and let's be willing to sacrifice some of those things that aren't as important as we think they are. Let's sacrifice some of what we have. Let's sacrifice some of who we are. Maybe we could sacrifice some of our play or entertainment. Maybe we can sacrifice some of our wasted time. Let's use our time better, spend it with God, spend it in relationship, doing good for our brothers and sisters. And then, yes, even though it might involve carrying a cross, we will be following Christ more faithfully. And now, let's offer our prayers to the Lord, who always hears us and answers us in our need. For all those in the Daily TV Mass community who have asked to be included in our prayer intentions book, especially those looking for a deeper awareness of God in everyday life, we pray to the Lord. CONGREGANTS: Lord, hear our prayer. During the season of Lent, we pray in a special way for all those preparing for the Easter sacraments, men, women, and even children who will be coming into the full communion of the Catholic Church at the Easter vigil. That these final weeks of preparation will bring them great growth in faith and in love, we pray to the Lord. CONGREGANTS: Lord, hear our prayer. For all those who are sick in suffering, whether in body, mind, or spirit, for all those who've asked us to pray for them, for all those we've promised to pray for, we pray to the Lord. CONGREGANTS: Lord, hear our prayer. Loving God, we ask you to hear all of our prayers, those we have spoken and the many more that we hold in the silence of our hearts, and answer us always with your mercy and with your love, through Christ, our Lord. CONGREGANTS: Amen. Blessed are you, Lord, God of all creation, for through your goodness, we have received the bread we offer you, fruit of the earth and work of human hands. It will become for us the bread of life. CONGREGANTS: Blessed be God forever. Blessed are you, Lord, God of all creation, for through your goodness, we have received the wine we offer you, fruit of the vine and work of human hands. It will become our spiritual drink. CONGREGANTS: Blessed be God forever. Pray, brothers and sisters, that my sacrifice and yours may be acceptable to God, the almighty Father. CONGREGANTS: May the Lord accept the sacrifice at your hands for the praise and the glory of his name, for our good and the good of all his holy church. Regard with favour, O Lord, we pray, the offerings we set upon this sacred altar, that bestowing on us your pardon, our oblations may give honour to your name through Christ, our Lord. CONGREGANTS: Amen. The Lord be with you. CONGREGANTS: And with your spirit. Lift up your hearts. CONGREGANTS: We lift them up to the Lord. Let us give thanks to the Lord our God. CONGREGANTS: 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 our Lord Jesus Christ, for by your gracious gift each year, your faithful await the sacred pascal feasts with the 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 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... # 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, these gifts, we pray-- (Bells ringing) 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." (Bells ringing) In a similar way, when supper was ended, he took the chalice, and once more giving thanks, he gave it 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." (Bells 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, and Thomas, our bishop, and all the clergy. 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, we pray, that with the blessed virgin Mary, mother of God, with blessed Joseph, her spouse, with the blessed apostles and all the saints who have pleased you throughout the ages, we may merit to be coheirs to eternal life and may 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 # And now, let's join together in prayer using the words that our Saviour Jesus Christ has given us. ERNESTO AND CONGREGANTS: 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. ERNESTO: 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. CONGREGANTS: 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 your church and graciously grant her peace and unity in accordance with your will who live and reign forever and ever. CONGREGANTS: Amen. The peace of the Lord be with you always. CONGREGANTS: And with your spirit. Let us offer each other the sign of peace. # # 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. Behold him who takes away the sins of the world. Blessed are those called to the supper of the lamb. ERNESTO AND CONGREGANTS: Lord, I am not worthy that you should enter under my roof, but only say the word and my soul shall be healed. (Bells ringing) ANNOUNCER: Please join me now in this act of spiritual communion. My Jesus, I believe that you are present in the blessed sacrament. I love you above all things, and I desire you in my soul. Since I cannot now receive you sacramentally, come spiritually into my heart. As though you were already there, I embrace you and unite myself wholly to you. Permit not that I should ever be separated from you. Amen. Let us pray. Having received the blessing of your heavenly gifts, we humbly beseech you, almighty God, that they may always be for us a source both of pardon and of salvation through Christ, our Lord. CONGREGANTS: Amen. The Lord be with you. CONGREGANTS: And with your spirit. Bow down for the blessing. Almighty God, who have made known to your people the ways of eternal life, lead them by that path, we pray, to you, the unfading light, through Christ, our Lord. CONGREGANTS: Amen. And may almighty God bless you, the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. CONGREGANTS: Amen. Go in peace, glorifying the Lord by your life. CONGREGANTS: Thanks be to God. ANNOUNCER: Our thanks to our donor for the gift of this Mass. # # Lord who throughout # # These 40 days # # For us did fast # # And pray #
