COMMUNION HYMN
Lord of all hopefulness, Lord of all joy, Whose trust, ever child-like, no cares can destroy, Be there at our waking, and give us, we pray, Your bliss in our hearts, Lord, at the break of the day.
Lord of all eagerness, Lord of all faith, Whose strong hands were skilled at the plane and the lathe, Be there at our labours, and give us, we pray, Your strength in our hearts, Lord, at the noon of the day.
Lord of all kindliness, Lord of all grace, Your hands swift to welcome, your arms to embrace, Be there at our homing, and give us, we pray, Your love in our hearts, Lord, at the eve of the day.
Lord of all gentleness, Lord of all calm, Whose voice is contentment, whose presence is balm, Be there at our sleeping, and give us, we pray, Your peace in our hearts, Lord, at the end of the day.
After the Dismissal
PRAYER OF ST MICHAEL
Holy Michael, Archangel, defend us in the day of battle. Be thou our defence against the wickedness and snares of the Devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray, and do thou, O Prince of the heavenly hosts, by the power of God, thrust down to hell Satan, and all wicked spirits, who wander through the world for the ruin of souls. Amen.
THE ANGELUS
The angel of the Lord brought tidings to Mary And she conceived by the Holy Spirit. Hail Mary...
Behold the handmaid of the Lord. be it unto me according to thy word. Hail Mary...
The Word was made flesh. And dwelt amongst us. Hail Mary...
Pray for us, O Holy Mother of God. That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ. Let us pray.
We beseech thee O Lord, pour thy grace upon us, that as we have known the incarnation of thy Son Jesus Christ by the message of an Angel, so by His death and passion we may be brought unto the glory of His resurrection, through Christ our Lord. Amen.
Matthew 10:26-33
Jesus instructed his twelve apostles to be courageous as they shared his mission of announcing God's reign. Despite the coming darkness and opposition, they should be fearless in proclaiming the light and truth of the gospel. Fear of persecution and death should not deter them. They should be more afraid of the evil one who could lead them to eternal destruction. Jesus encouraged his followers by reminding them of their worth before God. He gives the example of thesparrow—a small bird that his audience deemed quite unimportant. If God, who is in absolute control of every event in the entire universe, cares for the lowly sparrows, then how much more were God's children valued? No ill-treatment on earth could compare with the ultimate fate of one who had been guilty of infidelity to God. If the apostles remained faithful to their witness, Jesus would testify to their fidelity at the final judgment.
TO LOVE: Lord Jesus, help me to recognise my worth in God's sight
TO SERVE: Do I defend the faith when I am opposed?

Dedication of England to Saint Peter
O BLESSED Prince of Apostles,Vicar of Christ, Shepherd of the whole flock, Rock on whom the Church is built, we thank the Prince of Pastors, who in the ages of Faith, did bind this country so sweetly and strongly to thee and to that holy See of Rome from which her conversion came.
We praise and bless our Lord for those steadfast Confessors who laid down their lives for thy honour and prerogative in the hour when schism and heresy broke upon the land. We desire to revive the zeal, the devotion and the love of ancient days. We consecrate our country, as far as in us lies, fervently and lovingly to thee. We offer thee our homage. We renew our loyalty to the Pontiff, thy successor, who now fills the Apostolic See.
Do thou confirm and strengthen, by thy powerful intercession, the faith of the pastors and people who invoke thee, save us from apostasy, from disunion, from religious indifference, and from the losses to which ignorance and temptation expose our little flock.
O most sincere and most humble penitent, obtain for us tears of true repentance for our sins, and a strong personal love for our divine Master; O key bearer of the Heavenly Kingdom, open to us the gate of heaven, that we may enter into the joy of the King of Glory.
Remember this realm of England, which grew in grace and unity under thy blessed apostolic influence for nigh a thousand years. Pray to Jesus that all may see thee and be brought back to thy Fold, which is the One Fold of Christ. Amen.
