Entrance Antiphon
Save us, O Lord our God! And gather us from the nations,
to give thanks to your holy name, and make it our glory to
praise you.
Collect
Grant us, Lord our God, that we may honor you with all our
mind, and love everyone in truth of heart. Through our Lord
Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the
unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever. Amen.
Communion Antiphon
Going out into the world puts us into the heart of the human
experience, like God coming into this world as man. Unless we go out
we would not know the misery that is plaguing our fellow human
beings. We might know this as a fact and we might be instructed in
the law of Love, but our knowledge of this human reality will be
nothing more than ideas. With all our comfort, we wouldnt know
what misery and suffering are. In all our abundance, we want more
and more until it ruins us as well. In short we wouldnt have known
how to love.
This is the reason why Jesus Christ has instructed his disciples to
always go out into the world to gain their knowledge about God and
how to love him with all their heart passionately. We, too, are called
to do such things in our everyday life as we offer ourselves as his
children.
