EPISTLE I John 3.13-18
Dearly beloved, Wonder not if the world hate you. We know that we have passed from death to life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not, abideth in death. Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and you know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in himself. In this we have known the charity of God, because he hath laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren. He that hath the substance of this world, and shall see his brethren in need, and shall shut up his bowels from him, how doth the charity of God abide in him? My little children, let us not love in word nor in tongue, but in deed and in truth.
GRADUAL Ps. 36.30-31.
The mouth of the just shall meditate wisdom: and his tongue shall speak judgment. The law of his God is in his heart, and his steps shall not be supplanted.
Alleluia, alleluia. V. Ps. 111.1. Blessed is the man that feareth the Lord: he shall delight exceedingly in his commandments. Alleluia.
+ The Continuation of the Holy Gospel according to John (15.12-16)
At that time, Jesus said to his disciples: This is my commandment, that you love one another, as I have loved you. Greater love than this no man hath, that a man lay down his life for his friends. You are my friends, if you do the things that I command you. I will not now call you servants: for the servant knoweth not what his lord doth. But I have called you friends: because all things whatsoever I have heard of my Father, I have made known to you. You have not chosen me: but I have chosen you; and have appointed you, that you should go, and should bring forth fruit; and your fruit should remain: that whatsoever you shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.
OFFERTORY Ps. 20.2-3.
In thy strength, O Lord, the just man shall joy, and in thy salvation he shall rejoice exceedingly: thou hast given him his heart’s desire.

INTROIT Ps. 33.18.
The just cried, and the Lord heard them, and delivered them out of their troubles. Ps. 33.2. I will bless the Lord at all times: his praise shall be ever in my mouth. V. Glory be.
EPISTLE Heb. 11.33-39
Brethren, the saints through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought justice, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions, Quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, recovered strength from weakness, became valiant in battle, put to flight the armies of foreigners: Women received their dead raised to life again. But others were racked, not accepting deliverance, that they might find a better resurrection. And others had trial of mockeries and stripes, moreover also of bands and prisons. They were stoned, they were cut asunder, they were tempted, they were put to death by the sword, they wandered about in sheepskins, in goatskins, being in want, distressed, afflicted: Of whom the world was not worthy; wandering in deserts, in mountains, and in dens, and in caved of the earth. And all these were found approved by the testimony of faith, in Christ Jesus Our Lord.
GRADUAL Ps. 132.1-2
Behold how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity. Like the precious ointment on the head that ran down upon the beard, the beard of Aaron.
Alleluia, alleluia. V. Blessed is the man that feareth the Lord: he shall delight exceedingly in his commandments. Alleluia.
+ The Continuation of the Holy Gospel according to Luke (12.1-8)
At that time, Jesus to his disciples: Beware ye of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy. For there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed: nor hidden, that shall not be known. For whatsoever things you have spoken in darkness, shall be published in the light: and that which you have spoken in the ear in the chambers, shall be preached on the housetops. And I say to you, my friends: Be not afraid of them who kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do. But I will shew you whom you shall fear: fear ye him, who after he hath killed, hath power to cast into hell. Yea, I say to you, fear him. Are not five sparrows sold for two farthings, and not one of them is forgotten before God? Yea, the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore: you are of more value than many sparrows. And I say to you, Whosoever shall confess me before men, him shall the Son of man also confess before the angels of God.
OFFERTORY Ps. 31.11
Be glad in the Lord, and rejoice, ye just: and glory, all ye right of heart.
COMMUNION Matt. 12.50
Whoever shall do the will of my Father who is in heaven, he is my brother and sister, and mother, saith the Lord.
