CELEBRATIONOF THE MASS
Boris Kustodiev, The consecration of water on the Theophany, 1921
Ps 51:3-9 — Have mercy on me, God, in your goodness; in your abundant compassion blot out my offense. Washaway all my guilt; from my sin cleanse me. For I know my offense; my sin is always before me. Against you alonehave I sinned; I have done such evil in your sight That you are just in your sentence, blameless when you condemn.True, I was born guilty, a sinner, even as my mother conceived me. Still, you insist on sincerity of heart; in my inmostbeing teach me wisdom. Cleanse me with hyssop, that I may be pure; wash me, make me whiter than snow.

William Blake, The river of life
Ezek 47:1-2,8-12 — Then he brought me back to the entrance of the temple, and I saw water flowing out frombeneath the threshold of the temple toward the east, for the facade of the temple was toward the east; the waterflowed down from the southern side of the temple, south of the altar. He led me outside by the north gate, andaround to the outer gate facing the east, where I saw water trickling from the southern side. He said to me, "Thiswater flows into the eastern district down upon the Arabah, and empties into the sea, the salt waters, which it makesfresh. Wherever the river flows, every sort of living creature that can multiply shall live, and there shall be abundantfish, for wherever this water comes the sea shall be made fresh. Fishermen shall be standing along it from En-gedito En-eglaim, spreading their nets there. Its kinds of fish shall be like those of the Great Sea, very numerous. Onlyits marshes and swamps shall not be made fresh; they shall be left for salt. Along both banks of the river, fruit treesof every kind shall grow; their leaves shall not fade, nor their fruit fail. Every month they shall bear fresh fruit, forthey shall be watered by the flow from the sanctuary. Their fruit shall serve for food, and their leaves for medicine.".

Ps 43:1-4 — Grant me justice, God; defend me from a faithless people; from the deceitful and unjust rescue me.You, God, are my strength. Why then do you spurn me? Why must I go about mourning, with the enemy oppressingme?

I no longer deserve to be called your son; treat me as you would treatone of your hired workers."' So he got up and went back to his father.

When he heard about Jesus, he sent elders of theJews to him, asking him to come and save the life of his slave. They approached Jesus and strongly urged him tocome, saying, "He deserves to have you do this for him, for he loves our nation and he built the synagogue for us."And Jesus went with them, but when he was only a short distance from the house, the centurion sent friends totell him, "Lord, do not trouble yourself, for I am not worthy to have you enter under my roof. Therefore, I did notconsider myself worthy to come to you; but say the word and let my servant be healed. For I too am a person subjectto authority, with soldiers subject to me. And I say to one, 'Go,' and he goes; and to another, 'Come here,' and hecomes; and to my slave, 'Do this,' and he does it." When Jesus heard this he was amazed at him and, turning, saidto the crowd following him, "I tell you, not even in Israel have I found such faith." When the messengers returnedto the house, they found the slave in good health.

Deo gratias.
The Lord be with you.
And with your spirit.
The beginning of the holy Gospel according to St.John.
Glory be to You, O Lord.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word waswith God, and the Word was God. The same was in
the beginning with God. All things were made byhim; and without him was not any thing made that
was made. In him was life; and the life was the lightof men. And the light shineth in darkness; and the
darkness comprehended it not. There was a mansent from God, whose name was John. The same
came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light,that all men through him might believe. He was
not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of thatLight. That was the true Light, which lighteth every
man that cometh into the world. He was in theworld, and the world was made by him, and the
world knew him not. He came unto his own, andhis own received him not. But as many as received
him, to them gave he power to become the sonsof God, even to them that believe on his name:
Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will ofthe flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. ANDTHE WORD WAS MADE FLESH, and dwelt among
us, and we beheld his glory, the glory as of theonly begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth
Thanks be to God.

Mt 18:7-10
Woe to the world because of things that cause sin! Such things must come, but woe tothe one through whom they come! If your hand or foot causes you to sin, cut it off andthrow it away. It is better for you to enter into life maimed or crippled than with twohands or two feet to be thrown into eternal fire. And if your eye causes you to sin, tearit out and throw it away. It is better for you to enter into life with one eye than withtwo eyes to be thrown into fiery Gehenna. for I say to you that their angels in heavenalways look upon the face of my heavenly Father.

Jn 15:20-24
Remember the word I spoke to you, 'No slave is greater than his master.' If theypersecuted me, they will also persecute you. If they kept my word, they will also keepyours. And they will do all these things to you on account of my name, because theydo not know the one who sent me. If I had not come and spoken to them, they wouldhave no sin; but as it is they have no excuse for their sin. Whoever hates me also hatesmy Father. If I had not done works among them that no one else ever did, they wouldnot have sin; but as it is, they have seen and hated both me and my Father.
