3 FIRST READING: Amos 5.6-7, Sit Hate Evil And Love Good Seek the Lord and live, or he will break out against the house of Joseph like fire, and it will devour Bethel, with no one to quench it. Ah, you that turn justice to wormwood, and bring righteousness to the ground! They hate the one who reproves in the gate, and they abhor the one who speaks the truth. Therefore, because you trample on the poor and take from them levies of grain, you have built houses of hewn stone, but you shall not live in them; you have planted pleasant vineyards, but you shall not drink their wine. For I know how many are your transgressions, and how great are your sins you who afflict the righteous, who take a bribe, and push aside the needy in the gate. Therefore the prudent will keep silent in such a time; for it is an evil time. Seek good and not evil, that you may live; and so the Lord, the God of hosts, will be with you, just as you have said. Hate evil and love good, and establish justice in the gate; it may be that the Lord, the God of hosts, will be gracious to the remnant of Joseph. This is the word of the Lord: Thanks be to God RESPONSORIAL PSALM: Psalm 89(90):12-17 Fill us with your love so that we may rejoice. Make us know the shortness of our life that we may gain wisdom of heart. Lord, relent! Is your anger for ever? Show pity to your servants. Fill us with your love so that we may rejoice. In the morning, fill us with your love; we shall exult and rejoice all our days. Give us joy to balance our affliction for the years when we knew misfortune. Fill us with your love so that we may rejoice. Show forth your work to your servants; let your glory shine on their children. Let the favour of the Lord be upon us: give success to the work of our hands. Fill us with your love so that we may rejoice. 3

4 SECOND READING: Hebrews 4:12-end Sit Let Us Therefore Approach The Throne Of Grave With Boldness Indeed, the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing until it divides soul from spirit, joints from marrow; it is able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart. And before him no creature is hidden, but all are naked and laid bare to the eyes of the one to whom we must render an account. Since, then, we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold fast to our confession. For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathise with our weaknesses, but we have one who in every respect has been tested as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore approach the throne of grace with boldness, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need. GOSPEL ACCLAMATION Alleluia, alleluia! How happy are the poor in spirit: theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Alleluia! GOSPEL: Mark 10:17-31 The Lord be with you. And also with you.! Hear the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ according to Mark Glory to you, O Lord. What Must I Do To Inherit Eternal Life? As he was setting out on a journey, a man ran up and knelt before him, and asked him, Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life? Jesus said to him, Why do you call me good? No one is good but God alone. You know the commandments: You shall not murder; You shall not commit adultery; You shall not steal; You shall not bear false witness; You shall not defraud; Honour your father and mother. He said to him, Teacher, I have kept all these since my youth. Jesus, looking at him, loved him and said, You lack one thing; go, sell what you own, and give the money to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; then come, follow me. When he heard this, he was shocked and went away grieving, for he had many possessions. Then Jesus looked around and said to his disciples, How hard it will be for those who have wealth to enter the kingdom of God! 4

5 And the disciples were perplexed at these words. But Jesus said to them again, Children, how hard it is to enter the kingdom of God! It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God. They were greatly astounded and said to one another, Then who can be saved? Jesus looked at them and said, For mortals it is impossible, but not for God; for God all things are possible. Peter began to say to him, Look, we have left everything and followed you. Jesus said, Truly I tell you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or fields, for my sake and for the sake of the good news, who will not receive a hundredfold now in this age houses, brothers and sisters, mothers and children, and fields, with persecutions and in the age to come eternal life. But many who are first will be last, and the last will be first. The Gospel of the Lord: Praise to you, O Christ HOMILY Sit NICENE CREED We believe in one God, the Father, the Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all that is, seen and unseen. We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ, the only Son of God, eternally begotten of the Father, God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, of one Being with the Father; through him all things were made. For us and for our salvation he came down from heaven, was incarnate from the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary and was made man. For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate; he suffered death and was buried. On the third day he rose again in accordance with the Scriptures; he ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead, and his kingdom will have no end. We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son is worshipped and glorified, who has spoken through the prophets. 5

6 We believe in one holy catholic and apostolic Church. We acknowledge one baptism for the forgiveness of sins. We look for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the world to come. Amen. INTERCESSIONS Lord in your mercy, hear our prayer.! Rest eternal grant to them, O Lord, and let light perpetual shine upon them. Merciful Father, accept these prayers for the sake of your Son, our Saviour Jesus Christ. Amen. PEACE Lord Jesus Christ, who said to your Apostles: Peace I leave you, my peace I give you, look not on our sins, but on the faith of your Church, and graciously grant her peace and unity in accordance with your will. Who live and reign for ever and ever. Amen. The peace of the Lord be always with you. And also with you. Let us offer one another a sign of peace. PROCESSION OF THE GIFTS: In The Lord I ll Be Ever Thankful In the Lord I'll be ever thankful, In the Lord I'll rejoice.

OFFERTORY PRAYERS Pray, my brothers and sisters, that my sacrifice and yours may be acceptable to God, the almighty Father.

Receive with favour, O Lord, we pray, the offerings of your people, that what they profess with devotion and faith may be theirs through these heavenly mysteries. Through Christ our Lord Amen EUCHARISTIC PRAYER The Priest continues singing the Preface, ending with: Holy Holy, Holy, Lord God of Hosts, Heaven and earth are full of Your glory, Holy Holy, Holy, Lord God of Hosts, Heaven and earth are full of Your glory, 7

8 Blessed, blessed, blessed is He, who comes in the name of the Lord. Blessed, blessed, blessed is He, who comes in the name of the Lord. The Priest continues the Eucharistic Prayer Great is the mystery of faith: When we eat this bread, and drink this cup, we proclaim Your death, O Lord, until You come again, until You come again. When we eat this bread, and drink this cup, we proclaim Your death, O Lord, until You come again, until You come again. The Priest concludes the Eucharistic Prayer At the end all sing THE LORD S PRAYER At the Saviour s command and formed by divine teaching, we dare to say: Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name; thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen BREAKING OF THE BREAD We break this bread to share in the body of Christ. Though we are many, we are one body, because we all share in one bread. 8
