22 May 2016 - Feast of the Most Holy Trinity (Trinity Sunday)


Double of the First Class - 
White

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.

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 prayers, 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.

¶ 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 Sun-day mass is merely resumed.

OFFERTORY Tob. 12. 6

Blessed be God the Father, and the only-begotten Son of God, and also the Holy Spirit; because he hath shown his mercy to us.

SECRET

SANCTIFY, we beseech thee, O Lord, our God, by the invocation of thy holy Name, the Sacrifice we offer, and by it make of us an everlasting offering unto thee. Through.

COMMEMORATION:  First Sunday after Pentecost

RECEIVE with favor, we beseech thee, O Lord, our Sacrifices which are being offered, and grant that they may become to us an unceasing help. Through.

COMMUNION Tob. 12. 6

We bless the God of heaven, and before all living we will praise him; because he hath shown his mercy to us.

POSTCOMMUNION

O LORD, our God, may the receiving of this Sacrament and the acknowledging of the holy and eternal Trinity and its undivided Unity profit us unto health of mind and body. Through.

COMMEMORATION: First Sunday after Pentecost

WE who are filled with such precious gifts, beseech thee, O Lord, that we may obtain graces for salvation, and never cease from thy praise. Through.

LAST GOSPEL

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

AT that time, Jesus said unto his disciples: Be ye therefore 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.

¶ For all masses after Trinity Sunday, including the mass for the First Sunday after Pentecost, until the Saturday before the First Sunday in Advent inclusive, use the following as Seasonal Prayers, followed by a Collect ad libitum from the Table of Prayers or the Section of Various Prayers, at all masses except where other Seasonal Collects are prescribed.

(patron of the church), and of all thy Saints, grant us thy saving health and peace; that being defended from all adversities and false doctrines, thy Church may serve thee in freedom and quietness. (Through.)

SECRET

GRACIOUSLY hear us, O God of our salvation, and by the power of this Sacrament defend us from all dangers, both of body and soul: granting us in this world the succor of thy grace and in the world to come, life everlasting. (Through.)

EPISTLE I John 4.8-21

DEARLY beloved, God is charity. By this hath the charity of God appeared toward us, because God hath sent his only-begotten Son into the world, that we may live by him. In this is charity; not as though we had loved God, but because he hath first loved us, and sent his Son to be a propitiation for our sins. My dearest, if God hath so loved us, we also ought to love one another. No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God abideth in us and his charity is perfected in us. In this we know that we abide in him, and he in us; because he hath given us of his spirit. And we have seen and do testify, that the Father hath sent his Son to be the Savior of the World. Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God abideth in him, and he in God. And we have known, and have believed the charity which God hath to us. God is charity: and he that abideth in charity abideth in God, and God in him. In this is the charity of God perfected with us, that we may have confidence in the day of judgment: because: as he is, we also are in the world. Fear is not in charity, but perfect charity casteth out fear: because fear hath Pain: and he that feareth is not perfected in charity. Let us therefore love God, because God first hath loved us. If any man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar. For he that loveth not his brother whom he seeth, how can he love God, whom he seeth not? And this commandment we have from God, that he who loveth God love also his neighbor.

GRADUAL Ps. 40.5,2
I said: O Lord, be thou merciful to me: heal my soul, for I have sinned against thee. V. Blessed is he that understandeth concerning the needy and the poor: the Lord will deliver him in the evil day.

Alleluia, alleluia. V. Ps.5.2 Give ear, O Lord, to my words; understand my cry. Alleluia.

¶ The Alleluia is said in resumed masses during the week as well during Trinitytide.

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

AT that time Jesus said to his disciples: Be ye merciful, as your Father also is merciful. Judge not, and you shall not be judged. Condemn not, and you shalt not be condemned. Forgive, and you shall be forgiven. Give, and it shall be given unto you: good measure, and pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall they give into your bosom. For with the same measure that you mete withal, it shall be measured to you again. And he spoke also to them a similtude: can the blind lead the blind? do they not both fall into the ditch? The disciple is not above his master: but every one shall be perfect if he be as his master. And why seest thou the mote in thy brothers eye: but the beam that is in thine own eye thou considerest not? Thou hypocrite, cast out first the beam out of thine own eye: and then thou shalt see clearly to pull out the mote from thy brothers eye. 

The Creed is said.

OFFERTORY Ps.5.3,4

Let us pray. Harken to the voice of my prayer, O my king and my God: for to thee will I pray, O Lord.

SECRET

WE beseech thee, O Lord, graciously receive our offerings devoted to thee, and grant that they may profit us for perpetual help. Through.
