It’s Sunday, the Lord’s Day. The Church celebrates.

Jesus, you call us and you gather us together in your Spirit of love.

We come to you.

- Here I am, Lord.

The Mass starts.

We welcome the Entrance Procession by singing.

The Priest greets us, and we make the Sign of the Cross.

- In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.

- Amen.

- The Lord be with you.

- And with your spirit.

We ask God to forgive us.

We prepare our hearts to receive Jesus.

- Lord, have mercy.

- Christ, have mercy.

- Lord, have mercy.

Jesus, come and give us God’s forgiveness and teach us to love like you.

We sing: Glory to God in the highest.

Like the angels at Christmas, we sing out our joy at being loved by God our Father, Jesus his Son and the Holy Spirit who comes into our hearts.

Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to people of good will.

We praise you, we bless you, we adore you, we glorify you, we give you thanks for your great glory, Lord God, heavenly King, O God, almighty Father.
