1 ST. JANE FRANCES DE CHANTAL CHURCH THE ORDER OF WORSHIP FOR THE THIRTY-SECOND SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME / YEAR B Entrance Hymn... Since Our Great High Priest, Jesus Christ # (Sun. 5 pm) The Summons #773 Gloria... from Mass in Honor of Saint Ignatius inside Worship back cover... (Sun. 5 pm) from Mass of Creation #323 Readings in Worship hymnal at #1203 Responsorial Psalm... Psalm 146: Praise the Lord, my soul # (Sun. 5 pm) Psalm 146: I will praise the Lord Michael Joncas Entrance Antiphon: Ps 88:3 Let my prayer come into your presence. Incline your ear to my cry for help, O Lord. Reading I: 1 Kings 17:10-16 A widow, ready to die, shares the little she has with the prophet and is rewarded with food to sustain her through a drought. Psalm Response: Ps 146 The psalmist lists the liberty lessons from God. We can live in a faith that ensures justice, nourishes our souls, and frees us from our sins. Reading II: Heb Hebrews 9:24-28 The repeated annual sacrifices of the high priest is replaced with the once and for all sacrifice of Christ. This passage both declares a new covenant and describes the act of atonement and sin offering that God both provides and accepts. Gospel: Mk Mark 12:38-44 Mark contrasts Jesus condemnation of those who practice religion for show with the widow who offers God all she has. 1990, GIA Publications, Inc. All rights reserved.
