DIX

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,

(and striking their breast, they say)

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.

THE LITURGY OF THE WORD

FIRST READING Isaiah 60:1-6 RESPONSORIAL PSALM Psalm 72 Cantor, then All: Owen Alstott

SECOND READING Ephesians 3:2-3a, 5-6 ALLELUIA Murray

GOSPEL & HOMILY Matthew 2:1-12 CREED

I believe in one God, the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible and invisible. I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Only Begotten Son of God, born of the Father before all ages. God from God, Light from Light,

true God from true God, begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father; through him all things were made. For us men and for our salvation he came down from heaven,

(all bow through “and became man”) and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary, and became man. For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate he suffered death and was buried, and rose again on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures. He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead

and his kingdom will have no end. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified, who has spoken through the prophets. I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church. I confess one Baptism for the forgiveness of sins and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come. Amen.

PRAYER OF THE FAITHFUL Cantor: All:

We pray to the… Lord, hear our prayer.

O magnum mysterium et admirabile sacramentum, ut animalia viderent Dominum natum, jacentem in praesepio. O beata Virgo, cujus viscera meruerunt portare Dominum Jesum Christum. Alleluia!

O great mystery and wondrous sacrament, that animals should see the Lord newborn lying in a manger. O blessed Virgin, whose womb was worthy to bear the Lord Christ Jesus. Alleluia!

(All other Masses) We Three Kings of Orient Are

KINGS OF ORIENT

1. We three kings of Orient are; Bearing gifts we traverse afar Field and fountain, Moor and mountain, Following yonder star. O star of wonder, star of night, star with royal beauty bright; Westward leading, still proceeding, Guide us to thy perfect light.

2. Born a king on Bethlehem’s plain,

Gold I bring to crown him again, King forever, Ceasing never Over us all to reign. O star of wonder, star of night, star with royal beauty bright; Westward leading, still proceeding, Guide us to thy perfect light.

3. Frankincense to offer have I: Incense owns a Deity nigh; Prayer and praising Gladly raising, Worship him, God on high. O star…

4. Myrrh is mine; its bitter perfume

Breathes a life of gathering gloom; Sorrowing, sighing, Bleeding, dying, Sealed in a stone-cold tomb. O star…

5. Glorious now behold him arise,

King and God and Sacrifice; “Alleluia, Alleluia!” Sounds through the earth and skies. O star…

COMMUNION PROCESSION What Child is This? (All Masses) GREENSLEEVES

1. What child is this, who, laid to rest, 2. Why lies he in such mean estate On Mary’s lap is sleeping? Where ox and ass are feeding? Whom angels greet with anthems sweet, Good Christian, fear: for sinners here While shepherds watch are keeping? The silent Word is pleading. This, this is Christ the King, This, this is Christ the King… Whom shepherds guard and angels sing; Haste, haste to bring him laud, the babe, the son of Mary.

3. So bring him incense, gold, and myrrh, Come peasant, king, to own him; The King of kings salvation brings, Let loving hearts enthrone him. This, this is Christ the King…

After receiving Communion, please kneel or be seated.

From Saba came the kings from afar, alleluia! They offered incense, gold, and myrrh, alleluia, alleluia!

SECOND COLLECTION & HYMN Joy to the World

ANTIOCH

1. Joy to world! the Lord is come; 2. Joy to the world! the Savior reigns; Let earth receive her King; Let us our songs employ; Let ev’ry heart prepare him room, While fields and floods, rocks, hills, and plains And heav’n and nature sing, Repeat the sounding joy, And heav’n and nature sing, Repeat the sounding joy, And heav’n, and heav’n and nature sing. Repeat, repeat the sounding joy. 3. He rules the world with truth and grace And makes the nations prove The glories of his righteousness, And wonders of his love, And wonders of his love, And wonders, and wonders of his love.

As we begin the New Year 2016, there are a number of important transitions and events that lay before our Cathedral Family. First, we are in the process of hiring a part-time Coordinator of Religious Education. The number of families in our parish with children continues to grow, and we currently do not have any program for children after sacramental preparation and before junior high youth group. Our catechists and youth volunteers do an outstanding job. That is without question. However, we have come to the point of needing a paid staff person to coordinate the overall approach to comprehensive faith formation under my direction as pastor. I have formed a small committee of parents to assist me in this effort and hope to have someone in place very soon.

The experiment with using the Parking West garage turns out to be not as successful as we had originally hoped. In short, it is costing the parish $15,000 per year with an average of 35 cars using the garage over the course of an entire weekend. After consultation with the Parish Pastoral Council and the Parish Finance Council, it has been determined to discontinue the parking option. As of today, your Parking West parking passes are no longer valid. Part of our “Cathedral Culture” has always been enduring the parking sacrifices involved in attending Mass in a crowded downtown core. It looks like that culture will continue. On a brighter note, we intend on diverting the parking expense to help us offset the costs involved in hiring a new Coordinator of Religious Education.

The first two phases of the Cathedral Campaign for a Second Century are finished. We are now in the process of preparing to enter the third phase which will consist of removing the cloud over the altar. This will also necessarily involve addressing issues of sound and lighting. We need to take the next several months to allow parishioners to continue to fulfill pledges (I myself still owe $1,000 on my pledge) so that we have enough funds to begin this third phase. What we do to the sanctuary has the potential to inspire the faithful for generations to come and so we will be very careful and deliberate as we move forward. Please be prepared for slow but steady progress and I will keep you fully informed as we move ahead.

As you are aware, Robert Carr begins his officer candidate program with the United States Navy this week. As he has moved on, we have pieced together temporary leadership with regard to directing our Cathedral Choir. Our next step is to form a committee and conduct an national search for a new Director of Music. This is an incredibly important leadership role for both our parish and diocese and so I want to take the time necessary to make sure we have the right person for the job. Please watch the bulletin for updates on our progress.

Finally, 2015 was a very difficult year for me personally. Never in a million years did I expect to be diagnosed with cancer – in fact, there are still days when I wonder if all of this is real. Although I continue my chemotherapy protocol for the next three months, I believe that the hardest part is behind me. I look forward to this summer when, God willing, I can get back up to speed and live my priestly life to the fullest once again. May the New Year 2016 hold many blessings and much hope for all of us!

Asking for the prayers of Our Lady of Lourdes, I remain,

Sincerely yours in Christ,

Rev. Darrin Connall Rector

Frequently they bring a new evangelizing
