The Homily
The Very
Rev. Dario G. Palasi
Priest, St. John’s & Dean of Flushing Deanery
The Nicene Creed
We believe in one God, the father, the
Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all that is, seen and unseen.
We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ, the only son of God, eternally
begotten of the Father, God from God, Light from Light, true God from
true God, begotten, not made, of one Being with the Father. Through him
all things were made. For us and for our salvation he came down from
heaven: by the power of the Holy Spirit he became incarnate from the
Virgin Mary, and was made man. For our sake he was crucified under
Pontius Pilate; he suffered death and was buried. On the third day he
rose again in accordance with the Scriptures; he ascended into heaven
and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in
glory to judge the living and the dead, and his kingdom will have no
end. We believe in the Holy Spirit. the Lord the giver of life, who
proceeds from the Father and the Son. With the Father and the Son he is
worshiped and glorified. He has spoken through the Prophets. We believe
in One holy Catholic and Apostolic Church. We acknowledge on baptism for
the forgiveness of sins. We look for the resurrection of the dead, and
the life of the world to come. Amen.

Through Jesus
Christ our Lord. In fulfillment of his true promise, the Holy Spirit
came down from heaven, lighting upon the disciples, to teach them and to
lead them into all truth; uniting peoples of many tongues in the
confession of one faith, and giving to your Church the power to serve
you as a royal priesthood, and to preach the Gospel to all nations.
Therefore, we
praise you, joining our voices with Angles and Archangels and with all
the company of heaven, who for ever sing this hymn to proclaim the glory
of your Name:
Celebrant and
People
Holy, Holy, Holy Lord, God of
power and might, heaven and earth are full of your glory. Hosanna in the
highest. Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord. Hosanna in the
highest.
Then the celebrant
continues
Holy and gracious father: In
your infinite love you made us for yourself; and, when we had fallen
into sin and become subject to evil and death, you, in your mercy, sent
Jesus Christ, your only and eternal Son, to share our human nature, to
live and die as one of us, to reconcile us to you, the God and Father of
all.
He stretched out his arms upon
the cross, and offered himself, in obedience to your will, a perfect
sacrifice for the whole world.
On the night he was handed
over to suffering and death, our Lord Jesus took bread; and when he had
given thanks to you, he broke it, and gave it to his disciples, and
said, “Take, eat: This is my Body, which is given for you. Do
this for the remembrance of me.”
After supper he took the cup
of wine; and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them, and said,
“Drink this, all of you: This is my blood of the new Covenant, which is
shed for you and for many for the forgiveness of sins. Whenever you
drink it, do this for the remembrance of me.”
Therefore we proclaim the mystery of faith:
Celebrant and People
Christ has died.
Christ is risen.
Christ will come again.
The celebrant
continues
We celebrate the memorial of
our redemption, O Father, in this sacrifice of praise and thanksgiving.
Recalling his death, resurrection, and ascension, we offer you these
gifts.
Sanctify them by your Holy
Spirit to be for your people the Body and Blood of your Son, the holy
food and drink of new and unending life in him. Sanctify us also that we
may faithfully receive this holy Sacrament, and serve you in unity,
constancy, and peace; and at the last day bring us with all your saints
into the joy of your eternal kingdom.
All this we ask through your Son Jesus Christ.
By him, and with him, and in him, in the unity of the Holy Spirit all
honor and glory is yours, Almighty Father, now and for ever. Amen.
And now, as our Savior Christ has taught
us, we are bold to say,
Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed
be thy Name, hollowed be thy Name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And
forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is
the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen.
[Alleluia.] Christ our Passover is
sacrificed for us;
Therefore let us keep the feast.
[Alleluia.]
The gifts of
God for the people of God. Take them in remembrance that Christ died for
you, and feed on him in yours hearts by faith with thanksgiving.

Celebrant &
People
Eternal God, heavenly Father, you have
graciously accepted us as a living members of your Son our Savior Jesus
Christ, and you have fed us with your spiritual food in the sacrament
of his Body and Blood. Send us now into the world in peace, and grant us
strength and courage to love and serve you with gladness and singleness
of heart; through Christ our Lord. Amen.
