00:00In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, may the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God, and of the Queen of the Holy Spirit be with you all.
00:23Today we're celebrating the Feast of St. Bartholomew the Apostle, but as we come to pray, let us call to mind our sins.
00:53May Almighty God have mercy on us, forgive us our sins, and bring us to everlasting life.
01:11Lord have mercy, Christ have mercy, glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to people of good will.
01:25We praise you, we bless you, we adore you, we glorify you, we give you thanks for your great glory.
01:34Lord God, heavenly King, O God, Almighty Father, Lord Jesus Christ, only begotten Son, Lord God, Lamb of God, Son of the Father,
01:47you take away the sins of the world, have mercy on us. You take away the sins of the world, receive our prayer.
01:56You are Savior, at the right hand of the Father, have mercy on us. For you alone are the Holy One, you alone are the Lord, you alone are the Most High, Jesus Christ, with the Holy Spirit, in the glory of God the Father. Amen.
02:17Strengthen on us, O Lord, with faith, by which the blessed Apostle Bartholomew clung wholeheartedly to your Son, and granted through the help of his prayers, your Church may become for all the nations the sacrament of salvation.
02:33Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, forever and ever. Amen.
02:46Our reading today is from the book of Revelation, chapter 21, verses 9-14.
02:56The angel spoke to me, saying, Come here, I will show you the bride, the wife of the Lamb.
03:05He took me in spirit to a great high mountain, and showed me the holy city, Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God.
03:17It gleamed with the splendor of God. Its radiance was like that of a precious stone, like jasper, clear as crystal.
03:29It had a massive high wall with twelve gates, where twelve angels were stationed, and on which names were inscribed the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel.
03:46There were three gates facing east, three north, three south, and three west. The wall of the city had twelve horses of stones as its foundation, on which were inscribed the twelve names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.
04:10The word of the Lord. Thanks be to God.
04:14Our sponsor of the song today is number 145.
04:19Your friends may know, O Lord, the glorious splendor of your kingdom.
04:32Let all your works be thanks, O Lord, and let your faithful ones bless you. Let them discourse of the glory of your kingdom and speak of your might.
04:47Your friends may know, O Lord, the glorious splendor of your kingdom.
04:54Making known to men your might and the glorious splendor of your kingdom.
05:00Your kingdom is a kingdom for all ages, and your dominion endures through all generations.
05:09Your friends may know, O Lord, the glorious splendor of your kingdom.
05:16The Lord is just in all his ways and holy in all his works.
05:22The Lord is near to all who call upon him, to all who call upon him in truth.
05:32Your friends may know, O Lord, the glorious splendor of your kingdom.
05:38Please stand.
05:40Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!
05:50Rabbi, you are the Son of God. You are the King of Israel.
05:56Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!
06:11The Lord be with you. And with your spirit.
06:15A reading from the Holy Gospel according to John. Glory to you, O Lord.
06:22Philip found Nathanael and told him, We have found the one about whom Moses wrote in the law, and also the prophet, Jesus, son of Joseph, from Nazareth.
06:35But Nathanael said to him, Can anything good come from Nazareth?
06:40Philip said to him, Come and see.
06:43Jesus saw Nathanael coming towards him and said to him, Here is a true child of Israel. There is no duplicity in him.
06:52Nathanael said to him, How do you know me?
06:55Jesus answered and said to him, Before Philip called you, I saw you under the fig tree.
07:00Nathanael answered him, Rabbi, you are the Son of God. You are the King of Israel.
07:05Jesus answered and said to him, Do you believe because I told you that I saw you under the fig tree?
07:11You would see greater things than this.
07:14And he said to him, Amen, amen, I say to you.
07:18You would see heaven opened and the angels of God ascending and descending, descending on the Son of Man.
07:24The Gospel of the Lord.
07:26Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.
07:43Blessed are you, Lord God of all creation, for through your goodness we have received the bread we offer you.
07:48Fruit of the earth and work of human hands, it will become for us the bread of life.
07:53Blessed be God forever.
08:08Blessed are you, Lord God of all creation, for through your goodness we have received the wine we offer you.
08:13Fruit of the vine and work of human hands, it will become our spirit two and three.
08:18Blessed be God forever.
08:23Amen.
08:28Pray, my brothers and sisters, that my sacrifice and yours may be acceptable to God, our Almighty Father.
08:34May the Lord accept the sacrifice at your hands, for the praise and glory of his name, for our good, and for the good of all his holy Church.
08:43As we celebrate with you the feast day of St. Bartholomew, Lord,
08:48we pray that we may obtain your help through the intercession of the Apostle,
08:55in whose honor we bring you this sacrifice of praise, through Christ our Lord.
09:02Amen.
09:03The Lord be with you.
09:04And with your spirit.
09:06Lift up your hearts.
09:07We lift them up to the Lord.
09:09Let us give thanks to the Lord, our God.
09:11It is right and just.
09:13It is truly right and just, our duty and our salvation always and everywhere to give you thanks, Lord, Holy Father, Almighty, Eternal God.
09:21For you, eternal shepherd, do not desert your flock, but through the blessed Apostles, watch over it and protect it always,
09:28so that it may be covered by those you have appointed shepherds to lead it in the name of your Son.
09:34And so with the angels and archangels, with thrones and dominions, and with all the hosts and powers of heaven,
09:40we sing the hymn of your glory, as without end we have came.
10:01And today a quote from John Christendom on the Eucharist from the year 344.
10:07Christ is present.
10:08The one Christ who prepared that holy cursed table is the very one who now prepares this altar.
10:14For it is not a man who makes the sacrificial gifts become the body of God's Christ, but he who was crucified for us, Christ himself.
10:22The priest stands there carrying out the action with the power and graces of God.
10:26This is my body, he says.
10:28This statement transforms the gifts.
10:33To you, therefore, most merciful Father, we make humble prayer and petition through Jesus Christ, your Son, our Lord,
10:39that you accept and bless these gifts, these offerings, these holy and oblivious sacrifices,
10:45which we offer you firstly for your holy Catholic Church.
10:48Be pleased to grant your peace, to guard, unite, and govern her throughout the whole world,
10:52together with your servant Francis, our Pope, Louis, our Bishop, and all those who hold him to the truth,
10:59and guard the Catholic and Apostolic faith.
11:02Remember, Lord, your servants, and all gathered here, whose faith and devotion are known to you.
11:08For them we offer you the sacrifice of praise of the offering for themselves and all who are dear to them,
11:13for the redemption of their souls and the hope of health and well-being,
11:16and paying their homage to you, the eternal God, living and true.
11:19In communion with those whose memory we venerate, especially the glorious Ever-Virgin Mary,
11:24Mother of our God and Lord Jesus Christ, and blessed Joseph, her spouse,
11:28your blessed Apostles and martyrs, Peter and Paul, Andrew, James, John, Thomas, James, Philip, Bartholomew,
