Collect

Liturgy of the Word Reading I Acts 8:26-40 En aquellos días, un ángel del Señor le dijo a Felipe: “Levántate y toma el camino del sur, que va de Jerusalén a Gaza y que es poco transitado.” Felipe se puso en camino. Y sucedió que un etíope, alto funcionario de Candaces, reina de Etiopía, y administrador de sus tesoros, que había venido a Jerusalén para adorar a Dios, regresaba en su carro, leyendo a profeta Isaías. Entonces el Espíritu le dijo a Felipe: “Acércate y camina junto a ese carro.” Corrió Felipe, y oyendo que el hombre leía al profeta Isaías, le preguntó: “¿Entiendes lo que estás leyendo?” Él le contestó: “¿Cómo voy a entenderlo, si nadie me lo explica?: Entonces invitó a Felipe a subir y a sentarse junto a él. El pasaje de la Escritura que estaba leyendo, era éste: Como oveja fue llevado a la muerte; como cordero que no se queja frente al que lo trasquila, así él no abrió la boca. En su humillación no se le hizo justicia. ¿Quién podrá hablar de su descendencia, puesto que su vida ha sido arrancada de la tierra? El etíope le preguntó a Felipe: “Dime, por favor: ¿De quién dice esto el profeta, de sí mismo o de otro?” Felipe comenzó a hablarle y partiendo de aquel pasaje, le anunció el Evangelio de Jesús. Siguieron adelante, llegaron a un sitio donde había agua y dijo el etíope: “Aquí hay agua. ¿Hay alguna dificultad para que me bautices?” Felipe le contestó: “Ninguna, si crees de todo corazón.” Respondió el etíope: “Creo que Jesús es el Hijo de Dios.” Mandó parar el carro, bajaron los dos al agua y Felipe lo bautizó. Cuando salieron del agua, el Espíritu del Señor arrebató a Felipe. El etíope ya no lo vio más y prosiguió su viaje, lleno de alegría. En cuanto a Felipe, se encontró en la ciudad de Azoto y evangelizaba los poblados que encontraba a su paso, hasta que llegó a Cesarea. The word of the Lord. R. Thanks be to God.

Responsorial Psalm Psalm 117 Alonso/Guimont

Reading II 2 Corinthians 4:1-2, 5-7 Therefore, since we have this ministry through the mercy shown us, we are not discouraged. Rather, we have renounced shameful, hidden things; not acting deceitfully or falsifying the word of God, but by the open declaration of the truth we commend ourselves to everyone’s conscience in the sight of God. For we do not preach ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, and ourselves as your slaves for the sake of Jesus. For God who said, “Let light sine out of darkness,” has shone in our hearts to bring to light the knowledge of the glory of God on the face of Jesus Christ. But we hold this treasure in earthen vessels, that the surpassing power may be of God and not from us. Palabra de Dios. R. Te alabamos Señor.

Gospel Acclamation James Chepponis

Gospel Luke 10:1-9 En aquel tiempo, Jesús designó a otros setenta y dos discípulos y los mandó por delante, de dos en dos, a todos los pueblos y lugares a donde pensaba ir, y les dijo: “La cosecha es mucha y los trabajadores pocos. Rueguen, por tanto, al dueño de la mies que envíe trabajadores a sus campos. Pónganse en camino; yo los envío como corderos en medio de lobos. No lleven ni dinero, ni moral, ni sandalias y no se detengan a saludar a nadie por el camino. Cuando entren en una casa digan: ‘Que la paz reine en esta casa’. Y si allí hay gente amante de la paz, el deseo de paz de ustedes se cumplirá; si no, no se cumplirá. Quédense en esa casa. Coman y beban de lo que tengan, porque el trabajador tiene derecho a su salario. No anden de casa en casa. En cualquier ciudad donde entren y los reciban, coman lo que les den. Curen a los enfermos que haya y díganles: ‘Ya se acerca a ustedes el Reino de Dios’ .” The Gospel of the Lord. R.. Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.

Rite of Ordination Election of the Candidates – The elect are called by Name. Reverend Jonathan Raia, Diocesan Director of Vocations, officially presents the elect to the Bishop and attests to their readiness for Ordination. He speaks on behalf of all those responsible for the formation of the elect. The Bishop, on behalf of the entire church, accepts the elect and calls them to Ordination as a deacon. Bishop: Relying on the help of the Lord God and our Savior Jesus Christ, we choose these men, our brothers, for the Order of the Diaconate. All: Thanks be to God. (All applaud.)

Homily Promise of the Elect – In a series of questions the Bishop asks the elect to express their desire and willingness to be ordained as deacon and to fulfill the responsibilities that come with Ordination. The elect make the choice to remain celibate for the sake of the Kingdom in lifelong service to God and the Church. Litany of Supplication – (All stand.) As the elect prostrate themselves before the altar, the Bishop invites the community to join in prayer for the Church, the world, one another, and the elect for Ordination. The congregation joins in singing the response to the ancient prayer of intercession in the Litany of Supplication. Lord, have mercy. Christ, have mercy. Lord, have mercy. CANTOR: ALL:

Holy Mary, Mother of God, St. Michael, Holy Angels of God St. John the Baptist (continues through the names of the saints) Lord, be merciful, From all evil, (continues through “By the outpouring of the Holy Spirit”) Be merciful to us sinners, Govern and protect your holy Church… (continues through “Jesus, Son of the living God”) Christ, hear us. Christ, hear us. Christ, graciously hear us. Christ, graciously hear us. Laying On of Hands and Prayer of Ordination – (All stand.) The elect kneel before the Bishop as he lays his hands on the heads of the elect. The laying on of hands, an ancient sign of Ordination, represents the most solemn moment of the Ordination rite. During the ceremony, the Bishop prays silently over the elect for the gift of the Holy Spirit. All join the Bishop in silent prayer for the elect. The Bishop prays aloud the Prayer of Ordination, which notes the

significance of the laying on of hands and the role of the newly ordained deacons in the Church. (After the Prayer of Ordination, all sit.) The Investiture – The deacons are vested with stole and dalmatic, the liturgical vestments proper to the Order of Deacons.

Psalm 84 Shavonne/Guimont

Handing On of the Book of the Gospels - The Bishop places the Book of the Gospels in the hands of the deacons and instructs them to be heralds of the Good News of Christ in word and deed. The Rite of Ordination concludes with a gesture shared with the newly ordained deacons welcoming them into the Order of the Diaconate.

Vocation Prayer

LORD OF THE HARVEST, BLESS young people with the gift of courage to respond to your call. Open their hearts to great ideals, to great things. INSPIRE all of your disciples to mutual love and giving—

for vocations blossom in the good soil of faithful people. INSTILL those in religious life, parish ministries, and families with the confidence and grace to invite others to embrace the bold and noble path of a life consecrated to you. UNITE us to Jesus through prayer and sacrament, so that we may cooperate with you in building your reign of mercy and truth, of justice and peace. Amen.

— Pope Francis
