Sunday of the Fathers of the 7 1 h Ecumenical Council Troparion: 0 Christ our God, You are above all praise, *for You established our Fathers as lights to all the earth. *You led us to the true faith through them. * 0 Most Bountiful Lord, glory be to You. Kontakion: Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. How the Son proceeded from the Father* our words cannot express; * but having two natures, * He was born of a woman. *we do not reject His image when we behold it,* but in faith we venerate and honor it.* And the Church professes it as true belief* when she honors the image of Christ's incarnation. Now and ever and forever: Amen. 0 gentle Protectress of Christians, * unfailing Mediatrix before the Creator,* do not despise the prayerful voices of sinners;* but in your goodness hasten to assist those who cry out to you: * "Inspire us to prayer, and hasten to hear our supplication, * intercede always, Mother of God, in behalf of those who honor you." Prokimenon: Blessed are You, and praiseworthy, 0 Lord, the God of our Fathers, and glorious forever is Your Name. V. In all that You have done Your justice is apparent. Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia! V. The God of gods, the Lord has spoken and summoned the earth, from the rising of the sun to its setting. V. Summon before Me My people who rnade a covenant with Me by sacrifice. Alleluia (3x) Communion Hymn: Praise you the Lord of heaven. Praise Him in the highest. Alleluia! (3x) Second Hymn: Exult, you Just, in the Lord: praise from the upright is fitting. Alleluia (3x) Epistle: Gai1:11R19 Heb 13:7-16 Gospel: Lk 8:5-15 Jn 17:1-13 Prayer for Vocations Almighty and merciful God, Inspire those You have chosen To hear and answer Your call to the Priesthood and Religious Life. Give them the courage To be the prophets for our times. Give them the wisdom and openness To live their personal call Give them the strength To be ready witnesses of Your love and care for the world. May they find support and encouragement in our words and in our prayers, Through the intercession of Mary The Mother of God, and all the Saints. Amen IL j I
