33rd Sunday in Ordinary Time
Processional Hymn - Glory!
Great is the Lord God Almighty
Great is the Lord on high
The train of His robe fills the temple
And we cry out highest praise
Glory to the risen King
Glory to the Son
Glorious Son
Lift up your heads
Open the doors
Let the King of glory come in
And forever be our God
Holy is the Lord God Almighty
Holy is the Lord on high
Let all the earth bow before You
And crown You Lord of all
First Reading - Daniel 12:1-3
In those days, I Daniel, heard this word of the Lord:
“At that time there shall arise, Michael, the great prince, guardian of your people; it shall be a time unsurpassed in distress since nations began until that time.
At that time your people shall escape, everyone who is found written in the book.
“Many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake; some shall live forever, others shall be an everlasting horror and disgrace.
“But the wise shall shine brightly like the splendor of the firmament, and those who lead the many to justice shall be like the stars forever.”
Responsorial Psalm - Psalm 16
R. Keep me Safe, O God. Keep me safe, you are my hope, my God.
Second Reading - Hebrews 10:11-14,18
Brothers and sisters:
Every priest stands daily at his ministry, offering frequently those same sacrifices that can never take away sins.
But this one offered one sacrifice for sins, and took his seat forever at the right hand of God; now he waits until his enemies are made his footstool.
For by one offering he has made perfect forever those who are being consecrated.
Where there is forgiveness of these, there is no longer offering for sin.
Gospel - Mark 13:24-32
Jesus said to his disciples: “In those days after that tribulation the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light, and the stars will be falling from the sky, and the powers in the heavens will be shaken.
“And then they will see ‘the Son of Man coming in the clouds’ with great power and glory, and then he will send out the angels and gather his elect from the four winds, from the end of the earth to the end of the sky.
“Learn a lesson from the fig tree.
“When its branch becomes tender and sprouts leaves, you know that summer is near.
“In the same way, when you see these things happening, know that he is near, at the gates.
“Amen, I say to you, this generation will not pass away until all these things have taken place.
“Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.
“But of that day or hour, no one knows, neither the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.”
Prayer for Our Lady of Angels Parish
Heavenly Father, we thank you for gathering us together and calling us to serve as your disciples.
You have charged us through your Son, Jesus, with the great mission of evangelizing and witnessing your love to the world.
Send your Holy Spirit to guide us as we discern your will for the spiritual renewal of our parish.
Give us strength, courage, and clear vision as we use our gifts to serve you.
We entrust our parish family to the care of Mary, our mother, and ask for her intercession and guidance, as we strive to build a parish that loves God, embraces all people, and shares the Gospel joyfully.
Amen.
Offertory - Give Us Clean Hands
We bow our hearts we bend our knees
Oh Spirit come make us humble
We turn our eyes from evil things
Oh Lord we cast down our idols
Give us clean hands give us pure hearts
Let us not lift our souls to another
Give us clean hands give us pure hearts
Let us not lift our souls to another
And oh God let us be a generation that seeks
That seeks Your face oh God of Jacob
And oh God let us be a generation that seeks
That seeks Your face oh God of Jacob
Communion Hymn - Behold the Lamb of God
You are my Lord
It's You I adore
Nothing on earth
Could ever take Your place
Your might humbles ev'ry heart
The highest of heavens bow
For nothing on earth
Could ever take Your place
And now we see Your sacrifice
The greatest gift our greatest prize
Behold the Lamb of God
Behold the Lamb of God
Who takes away the sins of the world
We will not forget
We will stay awake
We will not abandon
The promise that You made
Recessional Hymn - The Lion and the Lamb
He's coming on the clouds
Kings and kingdoms will bow down
And every chain will break
As broken hearts declare His praise
For who can stop the Lord Almighty
Our God is the Lion
The Lion of Judah
He's roaring with power
And fighting our battles
And every knee will bow before Him
Our God is the Lamb
The Lamb that was slain
For the sins of the world
His blood breaks the chains
And every knee will bow before the Lion and the Lamb
Every knee will bow before Him
So open up the gates
Make way before the King of kings
The God who comes to save
Is here to set the captives free
For who can stop the Lord Almighty
