LITURGY OF THE WORD
First Reading Daniel 7:9-10, 13-14 OR Revelation 12: 7-12ab
A reading from the Book of the Prophet Daniel
As I watched:
Thrones were set up
and the Ancient One took his throne.
His clothing was bright as snow,
and the hair on his head as white as wool;
His throne was flames of fire,
with wheels of burning fire.
A surging stream of fire
flowed out from where he sat;
Thousands upon thousands were ministering to him,
and myriads upon myriads attended him.
The court was convened, and the books were opened.
As the visions during the night continued, I saw
One like a son of man coming,
on the clouds of heaven;
When he reached the Ancient One
and was presented before him,
He received dominion, glory, and kingship;
nations and peoples of every language serve him.
His dominion is an everlasting dominion
that shall not be taken away,
his kingship shall not be destroyed.
The Word of the Lord Thanks be to God.

A reading from the Book of Revelation
War broke out in heaven;
Michael and his angels battled against the dragon.
The dragon and its angels fought back,
but they did not prevail
and there was no longer any place for them in heaven.
The huge dragon, the ancient serpent,
who is called the Devil and Satan,
who deceived the whole world,
was thrown down to earth,
and its angels were thrown down with it.
Then I heard a loud voice in heaven say:
“Now have salvation and power come,
and the Kingdom of our God
and the authority of his Anointed.
For the accuser of our brothers is cast out,
who accuses them before our God day and night.
They conquered him by the Blood of the Lamb
and by the word of their testimony;
love for life did not deter them from death.
Therefore, rejoice, you heavens,
and you who dwell in them.”
The Word of the Lord Thanks be to God.

Responsorial Psalm 138
Gospel John 1: 47-51
A reading from the holy Gospel, according to John Glory to You, O Lord
Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward him and said of him,
“Here is a true child of Israel.
There is no duplicity in him.”
Nathanael said to him, “How do you know me?”
Jesus answered and said to him,
“Before Philip called you, I saw you under the fig tree.”
Nathanael answered him,
Gospel Acclamation New Mass for John Carroll
Bless the Lord, all you angels, you ministers, who do His will.
-Page 7-
“Rabbi, you are the Son of God; you are the King of Israel.”
Jesus answered and said to him,
“Do you believe
because I told you that I saw you under the fig tree?
You will see greater things than this.”
And he said to him, “Amen, amen, I say to you,
you will see heaven opened
and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man.”
The Gospel of the Lord Praise to You, Lord Jesus Christ
Homily
Prayer of the Faithful
Prayer for Vocations
Almighty Father,
You have created us for some definite purpose.
Grant us the grace to know the path
You have planned for us in this life
and to respond with a generous “Yes.” Make our archdiocese,
parishes, homes, and hearts
fruitful ground for Your gift of vocations.
May our young people respond to Your call
with courage and zeal. Stir among our men a desire and the strength
to be good and holy priests.
Bless us with consecrated religious
and those called to a chaste single life,
permanent deacons,
and faithful husbands and wives,
who are a sign of Christ’s love for His Church.
We commend our prayer for vocations
to You, Father, through the intercession of Mary our Mother,
in the Holy Spirit, through Christ our Lord. Amen.

Spiritual Communion Prayer My Jesus, I believe that You are present in the Most Holy Sacrament. I love You above all things, and desire to receive You into my soul. Since I cannot at this moment receive You sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace You as if You were already there and unite myself wholly to You. Never permit me to be separated from you. Amen.

You are invited to take some time following Mass to pray to St. Michael the Archangel, as a family or silently on your own.
St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle.
Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the Devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray, and do thou, O Prince of the heavenly hosts, by the power of God,
cast into hell Satan, and all the evil spirits, who prowl about the world
seeking the ruin of souls. Amen
