PROCESSIONAL HYMN Jesus Christ is Ris’n Today EASTER HYMN

PENITENTIAL ACT

I confess to almighty God and to you, my brothers and sisters, that I have greatly sinned, in my thoughts and in my words, in what I have done and in what I have failed to do, We strike our breast during the next two lines through my fault, through my fault, through my most grievous fault; therefore I ask blessed Mary ever-Virgin, all the Angels and Saints, and you, my brothers and sisters, to pray for me to the Lord our God.

FIRST READING Acts 10:34a, 37-43 RESPONSORIAL PSALM Psalm 118:1-2, 16-17, 22-23 Rudy de Vos

Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good, for his mercy endures forever. Let the house of Israel say, "His mercy endures forever." ℟ "The right hand of the LORD has struck with power; the right hand of the LORD is exalted. I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the LORD. ℟ The stone which the builders rejected has become the cornerstone. By the LORD has this been done; it is wonderful in our eyes. ℟

SECOND READING Colossians 3:1-4 SEQUENCE Victimae paschali laudes Jehan Revert

Victimae paschali laudes immolent Christiani. Agnus redemit oves: Christus innocens Patri reconciliavit peccatores. Mors et vita duello conflixere mirando, dux vitae mortuus, regnat vivus. Dic nobis Maria, quid vidisti in via? Sepulcrum Christi viventis, et gloriam vidi resurgentis: angelicos testes, sudarium et vestes. Surrexit Christus spes mea: praecedet suos in Galilaeam. Scimus Christum surrexisse a mortuis vere: tu nobis, victor Rex, miserere. Amen.

To the Paschal victim let Christians offer up their songs of praise. The Lamb has redeemed the sheep: Christ who is without sin has reconciled sinners to the Father. Death and life have fought a huge battle, the Prince of Life was dead, but lives and reigns. Tell us, Mary, what did you see on your way? “The tomb of Christ, who is alive, and I saw the glory of his rising; angels standing as witnesses, the shroud and linen cloth. Christ my hope has risen: He has gone to Galilee before you.” Truly, we know Christ has risen from the dead: O King and victor, have mercy on us. Amen.

PRAYER AFTER COMMUNION

For those unable to receive the Blessed Sacrament at Mass, the ardent desire to receive Jesus in the Sacrament

allows you to share in the graces of Christ’s sacrifice:

O my Jesus, I believe that you are present in the Most Holy Sacrament. I love you above all things, and I desire to receive you into my soul.

Since I cannot receive you sacramentally at this moment, come at least spiritually into my heart.

I embrace you as if you were already there, and I united myself wholly to you.

Never permit me to be separated from you. Amen.

APOSTOLIC BLESSING with PLENARY INDULGENCE Bishop Barber will impart the apostolic blessing with a plenary indulgence, in the name of the Roman Pontiff, Pope Francis, to all present who are truly penitent and have confessed their sins and received Holy Communion.

And may he, who restores you to eternal life in the Resurrection of his Only Begotten, endow you with the prize of immortality. Now that the days of the Lord’s Passion have drawn to a close, may you who celebrate the gladness of the Paschal Feast come with Christ’s help, and exulting in spirit, to those feasts that are celebrated in eternal joy. Through the intercession of the blessed apostles Peter and Paul, may almighty God bless you, the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
