LessonLectio libri Sapientiae. Ecce sacerdos magmus, qui in diebus suis placuit Deo, et inventus est Justus: et in tempore iracundiae factus est reconciliation.

In illo tempore: Designavit Dominus et alios septuaginta duos: et misit illos ante faciem suam in omnem civitatem et locum quo erat ipse venturus. Et dicebat illis: ‘Messis quidem multa, operarii autem pauce. Rogate ergo Dominum messis, ut mittat operarios in messem suam. Ite: ecce, ego mitto vos sicut agnos inter lupos. Nolite portare sacculum, neque peram, neque calceamenta; et neminem per viam salutaveritis. In quamcumque domun intravertis, Primum dicte: Pax huic domui: et si ibi fuerit filius pacis, requiescat super illum pax vestra: sin autem, ad vos revertetur. In eadem autem domo manete, edentes, et bibentes quae apud illos sunt: dignus est enim operarius mercede sua. Nolite transpire de domo in domum. Et in quamcumque civitatem intraveritis, et susceperint vos, manducate quae apponuntur vobis: et curate infirmos, qui in illa sunt, et dicite illis: Appropinquavit in vos regnum Dei.’

ENGLISH

IntroitANTIPHON The Lord made to him a covenant of peace, and made him a prince: that the dignity of priesthood should be to him for ever.
VersicleO Lord, remember David:
ResponseAnd all his meekness.
VersicleGlory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit:
ResponseAs it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
ANTIPHON (repeat) The Lord made to him a covenant of peace, and made him a prince: that the dignity of priesthood should be to him for ever. (Ecclesiasticus (Wisdom of Ben Sira) 45: 30; Psalm 131: 1)
CollectO God, Who didst vouchsafe to send blessed Patrick, confessor and bishop, to preach Thy glory to the Gentiles, grant that, through his merits and intercession, we may be enabled to accomplish by thy mercy what Thou commandest us to do. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, Who liveth and reigneth with Thee in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God forever and ever.
ResponseAmen. (Ecclesiasticus (Wisdom of Ben Sira) 45: 30; Psalm 131: 1)
LessonToday’s lesson is from the Book of Wisdom.
(Noah) Behold, a great priest, who in his days pleased God, and was found just; and in the time of wrath he was made a reconciliation. (Abraham) There was not found the like to him who kept the law of the most High. Therefore by an oath the Lord made him to increase among his people (Isaac) He gave him the blessing of all nations, and confirmed His covenant upon his head. He acknowledged him in His blessings; He preserved for him His mercy; and he found grace before the eyes of the Lord. (Moses) He glorified him in the sight of kings, and gave him a crown of glory. (Aaron) He made an everlasting covenant with him, and gave him a great priesthood: and made him blessed in glory. To execute the office of the priesthood, and to have praised in His name, and to offer him a worthy incense for an odor of sweetness.
Here ends today’s lesson.
ResponseThanks be to God. (Ecclesiasticus (Wisdom of Ben Sira) 44. 16-27; 45. 3-20)
GradualVersicleBehold a great priest who in his days pleased God.
ResponseThere was not found the like to him, who kept the law of the Most High. (Psalm 106: 32, 31)
GospelThe Lord be with you.
ResponseAnd with your spirit.
Cross The continuation of the holy Gospel according to Luke.
ResponseGlory CrossCrossCross to Thee, O Lord
At that time, the Lord appointed also other seventy-two; and He sent them two and two before His face into every city and place whither He Himself was to come. And He said to them: ‘the harvest indeed is great, but the laborers are few: pray ye therefore the Lord Lord of the harvest that He send laborers into His harvest. Go, behold I send you as lambs among wolves. Carry neither purse, nor scrip, nor shoes; and salute no man by the way. Into whatsoever house you enter, first say: Peace be to this house: and if the son of peace be there, your peace shall rest upon him: but if not, it shall return to you. And in the same house remain, eating and drinking such things as they have: for the laborer is worthy of his hire. Remove not from house to house. And into what city soever you enter, and they receive you, eat such things as are set before you; and heal the sick that are therein; and say to them: the kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.’
The Gospel of the Lord.
ResponsePraise be to Thee, O Christ. (Luke 10: 1-9)
OffertoryI have found David My servant, with My holy oil I have anointed him: for My hand shall help him, and My arm shall strengthen him. (Psalm 88: 22)
SecretMay Thy saints, we beseech Thee, O Lord, in every place bring us joy; that while we commemorate their merits, we may experience their patronage. Through our Lord Jesus Christ Thy Son our Lord, Who liveth and reigneth with Thee in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God forever and ever. Amen. (Psalm 88: 22)
Preface
(Lent)
It is truly meet and just, right and for our salvation that we should at all times, and in all places, give thanks unto Thee, O holy Lord, Father almighty, everlasting God: Who by this bodily fast, dost curb our vices, dost lift up our minds and bestow on us strength and re-wards; through Christ our Lord. Through whom the Angels praise Thy Majesty, the Do-minations worship it, the Powers stand in awe. the Heavens and the heavenly hosts together with the blessed Seraphim in triumphant chorus unite to celebrate it. Together with these we entreat Thee that Thou mayest bid our voices also to be admitted while we say with lowly praise... Holy, Holy, Holy...
Communio VerseThis is the faithful and wise steward, whom his lord setteth over his family: to give them their measure of wheat in due season. (Luke 12: 42)
Post-Communion PrayerGrant, we beseech Thee, almighty God, that by showing gratitude for the gifts which we have received, we may, by the intercession of blessed Titus Thy confessor and bishop, obtain yet greater benefits. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, Who liveth and reigneth with Thee in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God forever and ever.
ResponseAmen. (Luke 12: 42)

About the information (below)

This information applies to the Diocese of Texas. If you are outside the diocese, the details
you see here are fairly standard throughout the western church. However, your bishop's rules may vary.
Diversity it worderful. These rules point to diversity. Neither we nor your bishop is "right" or "correct" ot "better."

Note on candles

The listing calendar items shows how many additional candles. Here are the rules for the base set of candles.

Use 2for priest celebrant, no incense
Use 4for priest celebrant, no incense
Use 6for any celebrant using incense
Add 1 if the celebrant is the Ordinary

Note on liturgical colors

Parishes and priests only need two colors: white and purple. White can substitute for every color, except purple.

WHITEUsed at Christmas, Easter, and other joyful celebrations. May be used at funerals, ordinations.
REDDays of the Holy Spirit, the Apostles, and memorials of martyrs.
ADVENT PURPLEThis is blueish purple. Use during advent. If you cannot afford both purple hues, use whichever you have.
LENT PURPLEThis is red-purple. You may use lent purple at funerals, but that tradition is basically dead (so to speak).
GREENGreen is the "none of the above" color. If you don't have specific instructions on color, then the color is green.
ROSEUse on Gaudete and Laetare Sundays
BLUEAny Mass for/about the Blessed Virgin Mary
BLACKGood Friday and Funerals.
GOLDAt a mammoth occasion (eg., ordination, Christmas, Easter, etc.), gold is fine.
SILVERWe don't use silver or any other color not mentioned.
