You have come to the aid of your servant, Israel,
to remember the promise of mercy,
the promise made to our ancestors,
to Abraham and his children for ever.

Glory be to the Father and to the Son
and to the Holy Spirit,
as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall
be, world without end. Amen.
Blessed are those

Let us pray to Jesus, the eternal Word of the
Father;
keep us attentive to the word of our Sacred
Scriptures
that, empowered by the Holy Spirit, we will
grow in grace.
Jesus, eternal Son of God, who came among us in
the flesh;
let us hear and see and touch and watch you
when we read the holy Gospels.
Jesus, eternally with the Father, and present in our
world;
do not let us walk away from you into sin, but
keep us close to you by your word.
Jesus, source of unity;
draw all Christians together through your saving
word, that we may be one, as you and the Father
and the Spirit are One being, in love and in
majesty.
