15 June 2014 - The Feast of the Most Holy Trinity


Double of the First Class - White

Note: Because the Mass of the Dead on the First Ferial Day of June will take place tomorrow, Vespers of the Dead follows Vespers of the Sunday in the usual manner.

INTROIT Tob. 12. 6

Blessed be the Holy Trinity and undivided Unity: we will give glory to him, because he hath shown his mercy to us. Ps.8.2. O Lord, our Lord, how wonderful is thy Name in all the earth. V.: Glory be.

¶ The Gloria in Excelsis follows the Kyrie Eleison at all masses during the year except when the color is purple, rose, or black, or at a ferial mass when the mass of the preceding Sunday is merely resumed.

COLLECT

O almighty and everlasting God, who hast granted to thy servants, in confessing the true Father, to acknowledge the glory of the eternal Trinity, and in the power of Majesty to adore the Unity: we beseech thee, that by steadfastness in the same Faith, we may ever be defended against all adversity. Through.

Commemoration: First Sunday after Pentecost

O God, the strength of those who put their trust in thee, be kindly attentive to our pray-ers, and since man's weakness is helpless without thee, grant the help of thy grace, that in observing thy commandments, we may please thee both in will and in deed. Through.

Commemoration: Saints Vitus, Modestus, and Crescentia, Martyrs

Grant to thy Church, O Lord, we beseech thee, through the intercession of thy holy Martyrs Vitus, Modestus, and Crescentia, not to be highminded, but to be humble in thy sight, that despising such things as be evil, she may practice with overflowing charity whatsoever things are right. Through.

¶ There are no Seasonal Collects at this mass.

EPISTLE Rom. 11. 33-36

O the depth of the riches of the wisdom and of the knowledge of God! How incomprehensible are his judgments, and how unsearchable his ways! For who hath known the mind of the Lord? Or who hath been his counsellor? Or who hath first given to him, and recompense shall be made him? For of him, and by him, and in him, are all things: to him be glory for ever. Amen.

GRADUAL Dan. 3. 55, 56

Blessed art thou, O Lord, that beholdest the depths and sittest above the Cherubim. V.: Blessed art thou, O Lord, in the firmament of heaven, and worthy of praise forever.

Alleluia, alleluia. V. Dan.3.52. Blessed art thou, O Lord, the God of our fathers, and worthy to be praised forever. Alleluia.

+ The Continuation of the Holy Gospel according to Matthew (28. 18-20)

At that time Jesus said to his disciples: All is power given to me in heaven and on earth. Going therefore, teach ye all nations, baptizing them in the Name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost. Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you; and behold I am with you all days, even to the consummation of the world.

The Creed is said.

¶ And note that the Creed is said on all Sundays and Feasts throughout the year, but not on feriae where the Sunday mass is merely resumed.

PROPER LAST GOSPEL

+ The Continuation of the Holy Gospel according to Luke (6.36-42)

At that time, Jesus said unto his disciples: Be ye there-fore merciful, as your Father also is merciful. Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven: give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again. And he spake a parable unto them; Can the blind lead the blind? shall they not both fall into the ditch? The disciple is not above his master: but every one that is perfect shall be as his master. And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but perceivest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Either how canst thou say to thy brother, Brother, let me pull out the mote that is in thine eye, when thou thyself beholdest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Thou hypocrite, cast out first the beam out of thine own eye, and then shalt thou see clearly to pull out the mote that is in thy brother's eye.
