Entrance Antiphon (Sir 36: 18 and Ps 121: 1)
Cantor: Grant peace to
those who are waiting for you, O
Lord, so that your proph- ets
may be proved trust- wor- thy; hear
the prayers of your ser- vant and
of your peo- ple Is- ra- el.
(Vs. I re- joiced when
it was said un- to me:
"Let us go to the house of
the Lord.")
Assembly: Glo- ry be
to the Fa- ther, and to the
Son, and to the Ho- ly Spir-
it. As it was in the be-
gin- ning, is now, and ev- er
shall be, world with- out end. A-
men.
Psalm Response: “The Lord is kind and merciful, slow to anger,
and rich in compassion.”
Communion Antiphon
Bring up your sacrifices
and come into his courts; adore the
Lord in his holy temple.
Communion:
1. Take
my heart, O lord, take my hopes and dreams.
Take
my mind with all its plans and schemes.
Give me nothing more than your love and
grace.
These alone, O God, are enough for me.
2. Take
my thoughts, O lord, and my memory.
Take
my tears, my joys, my liberty.
3. I
surrender, Lord, all I have and hold.
I
return to you your gifts untold.
4. When
the darkness falls on my final days,
take
the very breath that sang your praise.

SPECIAL COLLECTION FOR THE HOLY LAND
Holy Father Francis has asked us take up a Collection
for the Holy Land this weekend. It usually takes place on Good Friday, but the
pandemic stopped us from doing that. Perhaps you already gave through WeShare,
E-Giving or by dropping off your Good Friday envelope. If you have not done so,
please consider making a gift. It will help the good work of the Franciscans in
the Holy Land and enable them to care for the Holy Sites. Make sure to put your
donation in an envelope marked “Holy Land” and drop it in a Collection basket
or mail it to the church. God bless you!
