Second Sunday in Ordinary Time Contemporary Rite p. 63 Penitential Rite, p. 66 Entrance Hymn V. Jesus did this as the beginning of His signs in Cana in Galilee and so revealed His glory, R. And His disciples began to believe in Him. V. Glory be... R. As it was A Reading from the Book of the Prophet Isaiah. Is 62:1-5 For Zion s sake I will not be silent, for Jerusalem s sake I will not be quiet, until her vindication shines forth like the dawn and her victory like a burning torch. Nations shall behold your vindication, and all the kings your glory; you shall be called by a new name pronounced by the mouth of the LORD. You shall be a glorious crown in the hand of the LORD, a royal diadem held by your God. No more shall people call you Forsaken, or your land Desolate, but you shall be called My Delight, and your land Espoused. For the LORD delights in you and makes your land his spouse. As a young man marries a virgin, your Builder shall marry you; and as a bridegroom rejoices in his bride so shall your God rejoice in you. This is the Word of the Lord. Thanks be to God. Psalm Proclaim His marvelous deeds to all the nations. (Ps. 96) A reading from the First Letter of St. Paul to the Corinthians. 1 Cor 12:4-11 Brothers and sisters: There are different kinds of spiritual gifts but the same Spirit; there are different forms of service but the same Lord; there are different workings but the same God who produces all of them in everyone. To each individual the manifestation of the Spirit is given for some benefit. To one is given through the Spirit the expression of wisdom; to another, the expression of knowledge according to the same Deacon s Dialogue Rev. Mr. Richard Kasprzak I see that we are back in the green, meaning ordinary time is back. Funny name, even though no time is truly ordinary. Just comes from the Latin word ordinalis, which means numbered. Last week was a Solemnity, so for us, this is first week in ordinary time. Let s seize the opportunity. The best kept secret in the United States. Truly an amazing fact, and we don t even know what it is. Of course it being a secret, we would not be aware that it even exists. In my travels to the different states, and to the churches that I ve visited, I ve heard these words more than once from different people.. Keeping a secret can be one of the hardest things to do, but here and now, it seems impossible to let the secret out. There are many ways to let people in on a secret, but in this instance, it seems that no one, or at least very few people, have decided to let this secret out into general knowledge. And the most terrible thing about the secret is the fact that by letting it out, and truly propagating it, the good it would do - very probably - would be appreciated by many. People in all walks of life, of all genders, most ages, and positions would, most probably, embrace it. I myself have never run across a person who, once he has become familiar with this secret, has criticized the good that it does for those who embrace it with an open mind and a willingness to live within its bounds. Funny isn t it, that those of us who have been in on this secret, do not, for some reason, try to propagate it out into the world. The appreciations that I ve heard about it have come, almost totally, from people outside the circle of knowers, and learn about it by happenstance.

Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia. R. Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia V. God has called us through the Gospel to possess the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ. R. Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to St. John. Jn 2:1-12 There was a wedding at Cana in Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there. Jesus and his disciples were also invited to the wedding. When the wine ran short, the mother of Jesus said to him, They have no wine. And Jesus said to her, Woman, how does your concern affect me? My hour has not yet come. His mother said to the servers, Do whatever he tells you. Now there were six stone water jars there for Jewish ceremonial washings, each holding twenty to thirty gallons. Jesus told them, Fill the jars with water. So they filled them to the brim. Then he told them, Draw some out now and take it to the headwaiter. So they took it. And when the headwaiter tasted the water that had become wine, without knowing where it came from although the servers who had drawn the water knew, the headwaiter called the bridegroom and said to him, Everyone serves good wine first, and then when people have drunk freely, an inferior one; but you have kept the good wine until now. Jesus did this as the beginning of his signs at Cana in Galilee and so revealed his glory, and his disciples began to believe in him. This is the Gospel of the Lord. Praise be to You, Jesus Christ.
