Saint Peter Nolasco is perhaps best known as the founder of the Mercedarians in 1218. That religious order's full name is the Royal and Military Order of Our Lady of Mercy for the Ransom of Captives. The order would seek the rescue of Christians being held captive by the Muslims.
INTROIT Ps. 91.13-14.
THE just shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow up like the cedar of Libanus: planted in the house of the Lord, in the courts of the house of our God. Ps. 91.2. It is good to give praise to the Lord: and to sing to thy Name, O Most High. V.: Glory be.
COLLECT
O GOD, who after the example of thine own love didst divinely teach blessed Peter to enrich thy Church with a new offspring for the ransoming of the faithful: grant by his intercession that we may be set free from the bondage of sin, and may rejoice in lasting freedom in our heavenly home. Through.
COMMEMORATION: Of St. Agnes, Virgin and Martyr
O GOD, who year by year dost gladden us with the festival of blessed Agnes, thy Virgin and Martyr, grant, we beseech thee, that as we honor her in this service, we may follow the example of her holy life. Through.
EPISTLE I Cor. 4.9-14.
BRETHREN, We are made a spectacle to the world, and to angels, and to men. We are fools for Christ's sake, but you are wise in Christ; we are weak, but you are strong; you are honorable, but we without honor. Even unto this hour we both hunger and thirst, and are naked, and are buffeted, and have no fixed abode; and we labor, working with our own hands: we are reviled, and we bless; we are persecuted, and we suffer it. We are blasphemed, and we entreat; we are made as the refuse of this world, the offscouring of all even until now. I write not these things to confound you; but I admonish you as my dearest chil-dren: in Christ Jesus our Lord.
GRADUAL Ps. 36.30-31.
The mouth of the just shall medi-tate wisdom, and his tongue shall speak judgement. V.: 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. Alle-luia.
+ The Continuation of the Holy Gospel according to Luke (12.32-34)
AT that time, Jesus said to his disciples: Fear not, little flock, for it hath pleased your Father to give you a kingdom. Sell what you possess and give alms. Make to yourselves bags which grow not old, a treasure in heaven which faileth not: where no thief approacheth, nor moth corrupteth. For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
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.
SECRET
IN memory of thy Saints, O Lord, we offer thee the sacrifice of praise, by which we trust to be freed from both present and future evils. Through.
COMMEMORATION: Of St. Agnes
WE beseech thee, O Lord, may there descend upon these offerings thine abundant blessing: both mercifully to work our sanctification and to give us joy on this festival of thy Martyrs. Through.
COMMUNION Matt. 19.28, 29
Amen I say to you, that you, who have left all things and followed me, shall receive a hundredfold, and shall possess life everlasting.
POSTCOMMUNION
WE who are refreshed by heavenly meat and drink, humbly entreat thee, O our God, that we may be defended by the prayers of him in whose memory we have received them. Through.
