Processional: The Summons
The words of The Summons ask us if we are ready to assume the responsibility of listening to Christ and making the changes in our lives needed for our own salvation. Are we ready to listen? ~ Sofia Scattarreggia, soprano, and Margaret-Mary Owens, organ Psalm 145: R. The hand of the Lord feeds us; he answers all our needs Let all your works give you thanks, O Lord, and let your faithful ones bless you. Let them discourse of the glory of your kingdom and speak of your might. The eyes of all look hopefully to you, and you give them their food in due season; you open your hand and satisfy the desire of every living thing. The Lord is just in all his ways and holy in all his works. The Lord is near to all who call upon him, to all who call upon him in truth. Offertory: God, Whose Giving Knows No Ending With this hymn we thank God for all the gifts He has given us; for our lives, for His death, for the ultimate Treasure He has given us in the form of the Mass. ~ James McCarthy and Margaret Communion: Let the Hungry Come to Me God invites us to receive the Eucharist as the most direct and powerful way to receive Him, as given to us through the sacraments of the Church. Now in this time of preparation, we must make doubly sure to be fully prepared to receive Him into our hearts, and to make sure that we receive Communion with intention, humility, and without the stain of mortal sin on our souls. Post-Communion: Jesus my Lord, My God, My All Our post-communion hymn for the month of July is intended to remind us that above all things, we must cherish our Lord, who is all good. Through him, all things are possible. Recessional: Love Divine, All Loves Excelling Help us, O Lord, to do your will in all things and to live our lives as good and holy examples of your undying love. We ask this in your holy name, Amen.
