S e g u n d a L e c t u r a Filipenses 4, 6-9 Brothers and sisters: If then you were raise with Christ, seek what is above, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God. Think of what is above, not of what is on earth. For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. When Christ your life appears, then you too will appear with him in glory. Palabra de Dios Te alabamos Señor. S e q u e n c e Victimae Paschali Laudes Chant, Mode I Christians, to the Paschal Victim Offer your thankful praises! A Lamb the sheep redeems; Christ, who only is sinless, Reconciles sinners to the Father. Death and life have contended in that combat stupendous: The Prince of life, who died, reigns immortal. Speak, Mary, declaring What you saw, wayfaring. The tomb of Christ, who is living, The glory of Jesus resurrection; Bright angels attesting, The shroud and napkin resting. Yes, Christ my hope is arisen; To Galilee he goes before you. Christ indeed from death is risen, our new life obtaining. Have mercy, victor King, ever reigning! Amen. Alleluia.

D o x o l o g y A g n u s D e i Community Mass Richard Proulx C o m m u n i o n The reception of Holy Communion is the most sacred act for Catholics. We believe that we are then receiving the Body and Blood of Christ. Catholics who are properly prepared should approach the ministers of Holy Communion. We ask non-catholics not to receive. They are encouraged, however, to come forward with arms crossed over their heart to receive a blessing. A n t i p h o n Christ our Passover, has been sacrificed, alleluia; therefore, let us keep the feast with the unleavened bread of purity and truth, alleluia. Pascha nostrum Chant, Mode VI 8
A n t h e m Alleluia! Sing to Jesus! His the scepter, his the throne; Alleluia! His the triumph, His the victory alone; Hark! the songs of peaceful Zion Thunder like a mighty flood; Jesus out of ev ry nation Has redeemed us by his blood. Alleluia! Not as orphans Are we left in sorrow now; Alleluia! He is near us, Faith believes, nor questions how: Though the cloud from sight received him, When the forty days were o er, Shall our hearts forget his promise, I am with you evermore? Alleluia! Bread of Angels, Thou on earth our food, our stay; Alleluia! Here the sinful Flee to you from day to day: Intercessor, friend of sinners, Earth s Redeemer, plead for me, Where the songs of all the sinless Sweep across the crystal sea. Alleluia! King eternal, You the Lord of lords we own; Alleluia! Born of Mary, Earth your footstool, heav n your throne: You within the veil have entered, Robed in flesh, our great High Priest; Here on earth both Priest and Victim In the Eucharistic feast. Alleluia! Sing to Jesus! arr. Robert Hobby H y m n At the Lamb s High Feast SALZBURG 9

G u i d e l i n e s f o r t h e R e c e p t i o n o f C o m m u n i o n F o r C a t h o l i c s As Catholics, we fully participate in the celebration of the Eucharist when we receive Holy Communion. We are encouraged to receive Communion devoutly and frequently. In order to be properly disposed to receive Communion, participants should not be conscious of grave sin and normally should have fasted for one hour. A person who is conscious of grave sin is not to receive the Body and Blood of the Lord without prior sacramental confession except for a grave reason where there is no opportunity for confession. In this case, the person is to be mindful of the obligation to make an act of perfect contrition, including the intention of confessing as soon as possible (Code of Canon Law, canon 916). A frequent reception of the Sacrament of Penance is encouraged for all. F o r o u r f e l l o w C h r i s t i a n s We welcome our fellow Christians to this celebration of the Eucharist as our brothers and sisters. We pray that our common baptism and the action of the Holy Spirit in this Eucharist will draw us closer to one another and begin to dispel the sad divisions which separate us. We pray that these will lessen and finally disappear, in keeping with Christ s prayer for us that they may all be one (John 17:21). Because Catholics believe that the celebration of the Eucharist is a sign of the reality of the oneness of faith, life, and worship, members of those churches with whom we are not yet fully united are ordinarily not admitted to Holy Communion. Eucharistic sharing in exceptional circumstances by other Christians requires permission according to the directives of the diocesan bishop and the provisions of canon law (canon 844 4). Members of Orthodox Churches, the Assyrian Church of the East, and the Polish National Catholic Church are urged to respect the discipline of their own Churches. According to Roman Catholic Discipline, the Code of Canon Law does not object to the reception of Communion by Christians of these Churches (canon 844 3). F o r t h o s e n o t r e c e i v i n g H o l y C o m m u n i o n All who are not receiving Holy Communion are encouraged to express in their hearts a prayerful desire for unity with the Lord Jesus and with one another. F o r n o n - C h r i s t i a n s We also welcome to this celebration those who do not share our faith in Jesus Christ. While we cannot admit them to Holy Communion, we ask them to offer their prayers for the peace and the unity of the human family. Copyright 1996, United States Catholic Conference.
