Mass Readings:

 

• First Reading:  Isaiah 25:6-10a

On this mountain the Lord of hosts will provide for all peoples a feast of rich food and choice wines, juicy, rich food and pure, choice wines.  On this mountain he will destroy the veil that veils all peoples, the web that is woven over all nations; he will destroy death forever.  The Lord God will wipe away the tears from every face; the reproach of his people he will remove from the whole earth; for the Lord has spoken.  On that day it will be said: “Behold our God, to whom we looked; let us rejoice and be glad that he has saved us!”  For the hand of the Lord will rest on this mountain.

• Responsorial Psalm:  Psalm 23:1-3a, 3b-4, 5, 6

 

I shall live in the house of the Lord all the days of my life.

 

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.  In verdant pastures he gives me repose; beside restful waters he leads me; he refreshes my soul.

 

He guides me in right paths for his name’s sake.  Even though I walk in the dark valley I fear no evil; for you are at my side with your rod and your staff that give me courage.

 

You spread the table before me in the sight of my foes; you anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.

 

Only goodness and kindness follow me all the days of my life; and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord for years to come.

 

• Second Reading:  Philippians 4:12-14, 19-20

Brothers and sisters:  I know how to live in humble circumstances; I know also how to live with abundance.  In every circumstance and in all things, I have learned the secret of being well fed and of going hungry, of living in abundance and of being in need.  I can do all things in him who strengthens me.  Still, it was kind of you to share in my distress.  My God will fully supply whatever you need, in accord with his glorious riches in Christ Jesus.  To our God and Father, glory forever and ever.  Amen.

 

• Gospel Acclamation:  Ephesians 1:17-18

 

Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia!  May the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ enlighten the eyes or our hearts, so that we may know what is the hope that belongs to our call.  Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia!

 

• Gospel:  Matthew 21:1-14

Jesus again in reply spoke to the chief priests and elders of the people in parables, saying, “the kingdom of heaven may be likened to a king who gave a wedding feast for his son.  He dispatched his servants to summon the invited guests to the feast, but they refused to come.  A second time he sent other servants, saying, ‘Tell those invited: Behold, I have prepared my banquet, my calves and fattened cattle are killed, and everything is ready; come to the feast.”’ Some ignored the invitation and went away, one to his farm, another to his business.  The rest laid hold of his servants, mistreated them, and killed them.  The king was enraged and sent his troops, destroyed those murderers, and burned their city.  Then he said to his servants, ‘The feast is ready, but those who were invited were not worthy to come.  Go out, therefore, into the main roads and invite to the feast whomever you find.’ The servants went out into the streets and gathered all they found, bad and good alike, and the hall was filled with guests.  [But when the king came to meet the guests, he saw a man there not dressed in a wedding garment.  The king said to him, ‘My friend, how is it that you came in here without a wedding garment?’ But he was reduced to silence.  Then the king said to his attendants, ‘Bind his hands and feet, and cast him into the darkness outside, where there will be wailing and grinding of teeth.’ Many are invited, but few are chosen.”]

 

Songs for the Mass:

 

• Entrance:  Gather the People (Schutte), MI 302

Gather the people!  Enter the feast!  All are invited, the greatest and least.  The banquet is ready, now to be shared.  Join in the heavenly feast that God has prepared.

Around this table we dine as kin, beloved family of God.  We share the Body of Christ, the Lord.  Here we become what we eat.

Around this table we tell great tales, the wondrous stories of grace.  We hold the memory of Christ, the Lord.  So, we become what we eat.

 

• Preparation of the Gifts:  You Are the Light (Hart) MI 588

You are the light that stands alone in depth of night and eye of storm.  Where shadows fall, you enter in; ignite with hope what dark has dimmed.  And though our eyes may fail to see, it is the heart that’s given sight through night and storm, to trust in you.  Upon our path you are the light.

You are the word that’s written deep within the hearts of all who long for endless days beyond the sies, for peace on earth, a kingdom come.  We sing the name that heals our souls, and share the way, the truth, and life.  For hearts that long, both lost and found, we speak the word: you are the light.

 

• Communion:  Taste and See (Moore), MI 333

Taste and see, taste and see the goodness of the Lord.  O taste and see, taste and see the goodness of the Lord, of the Lord.

I will bless the Lord at all times.  His praise shall always be on my lips; my soul shall glory in the Lord for he has been so good to me.

Glorify the Lord with me.  Together let us all praise his name.  I called the Lord and he answered me; from all my troubles he set me free.

Worship the Lord, all you people.  You’ll want for nothing if you ask.  Taste and see that God is good in him we need put all our trust.

• Sending Forth:  We Are the Light of the World (GREIF), MI 591

Blessed are they who are poor in spirit, theirs is the kingdom of God.  Bless us, O Lord, make us poor in spirit; Bless us, O Lord, our God.

We are the light of the world, may our light shine before all.  That they may see the good that we do, and give glory to God.

Blessed are they who show others mercy, they will know mercy too.  Bless us, O Lord, hear our cry for mercy; Bless us, O Lord, our God.
