1st Reading – Ezekiel 17:22-24
Thus says the Lord GOD:
I, too, will take from the crest of the cedar, from its topmost branches tear off a tender shoot, and plant it on a high and lofty mountain;
on the mountain heights of Israel I will plant it.
It shall put forth branches and bear fruit, and become a majestic cedar.
Birds of every kind shall dwell beneath it, every winged thing in the shade of its boughs.
And all the trees of the field shall know that I, the LORD,
bring low the high tree, lift high the lowly tree, wither up the green tree, and make the withered tree bloom.
As I, the LORD, have spoken, so will I do.
All: Thanks be to God.
 
 
Responsorial Psalm – Psalms 92: 2-3, 13-14, 15-16
R. Lord, it is good to give thanks to you.
 
It is good to give thanks to the LORD, to sing praise to your name, Most High,
to proclaim your kindness at dawn and your faithfulness throughout the night.
R. Lord, it is good to give thanks to you.
 
The just one shall flourish like the palm tree, like a cedar of Lebanon shall he grow. They that are planted in the house of the LORD shall flourish in the courts of our God.
R. Lord, it is good to give thanks to you.
 
They shall bear fruit even in old age; vigorous and sturdy shall they be, declaring how just is the LORD, my rock, in whom there is no wrong.
R.  Lord, it is good to give thanks to you.
 
 
2nd Reading – 2 Corinthians 5:6-10
Brothers and sisters:
We are always courageous,
although we know that while we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord, for we walk by faith, not by sight.
Yet we are courageous, and we would rather leave the body and go home to the Lord.
Therefore, we aspire to please him, whether we are at home or away.
For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each may receive recompense, according to what he did in the body, whether good or evil.
All: Thanks be to God.
 
 
Alleluia – 
R. Alleluia, alleluia.
The seed is the word of God, Christ is the sower.
All who come to him will live forever.
R. Alleluia, alleluia.
 
 
Gospel – Mark 4:26-34
Jesus said to the crowds:
“This is how it is with the kingdom of God; it is as if a man were to scatter seed on the land and would sleep and rise night and day and through it all the seed would sprout and grow, he knows not how.
Of its own accord the land yields fruit, first the blade, then the ear, then the full grain in the ear.
And when the grain is ripe, he wields the sickle at once,
for the harvest has come.”
 
He said,
“To what shall we compare the kingdom of God, or what parable can we use for it?
It is like a mustard seed that, when it is sown in the ground, is the smallest of all the seeds on the earth.
But once it is sown, it springs up and becomes the largest of plants and puts forth large branches, so that the birds of the sky can dwell in its shade.”
With many such parables
he spoke the word to them as they were able to understand it.
Without parables he did not speak to them, but to his own disciples he explained everything in private.
All: Praise to You, Lord Jesus Christ.
 
 
Nicene Creed
 
I believe in one God,
the Father almighty,
maker of heaven and earth,
of all things visible and invisible.
 
I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ,
the Only Begotten Son of God,
born of the Father before all ages.
God from God, Light from Light,
true God from true God,
begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father; through him all things were made.
For us men and for our salvation
he came down from heaven, and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary, and became man.
 
For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate, he suffered death and was buried,
and rose again on the third day
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.
 
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son,
who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified, who has spoken through the prophets.
I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church. I confess one Baptism for the forgiveness of sins and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come. Amen.
 
 
Prayer of the Faithful

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.
 
P✠: Deliver us, Lord, we pray, from every evil, graciously grant peace in our days, that, by the help of your mercy, we may be always free from sin and safe from all distress, as we await the blessed hope and the coming of our Savior, Jesus Christ.

All: Lord, I am not worthy that you should enter under my roof, but only say the word and my soul shall be healed.
 
 
COMMUNION HYMN
 
On Eagle’s Wings
 
1. You who dwell in the shelter of the Lord
Who abide in His shadow for life
Say to the Lord, "My refuge, my rock in whom I trust!" *
* And He will raise you up on eagles' wings
Bear you on the breath of dawn
Make you to shine like the sun
And hold you in the palm of His hand
 
2. The snare of the fowler will never capture you
And famine will bring you no fear
Under His wings your refuge, His faithfulness your shield *
 
3. You need not fear the terror of the night
Nor the arrow that flies by day
Though thousands fall about you, near you it shall not come *
 
4. For to His angels He's given a command
To guard you in all of your ways
Upon their hands they will bear you up
Lest you dash your foot against a stone *
 
And hold you, hold you in the palm of His hand
 
 
Though the Mountains May Fall
 
* Though the mountains my fall
and the hills turn to dust,
yet the love of the Lord will stand
as a shelter for all who will call on his name
sing the praise and the glory of God
 
1. Could the Lord ever leave you?
Could the Lord forget His love?
Though a mother forsake her child,
He will not abandon you. *
 
2. Should you turn and forsake him,
He will gently call your name.
Should you wander away from Him,
He will always take you back. *
 
3. Go to Him when you’re weary;
He will give you eagle’s wings.
You will run, never tire,
For your God will be your strength *

RECESSIONAL HYMN
 
Walk with Faith
 
1. Walk with faith in your heart
And you'll never walk alone
For with faith in your heart
The world is your own
You never will grieve
If in Him, you believe and
Walk with faith in your heart
 
2. When the dreams that you dream
Seem to disappear from view
That's the time to fight on
And soon they'll all come true
He'll lighten your load
As you travel life's road
So walk with faith in your heart
 
3. You will find happiness
If you let Him be your friend
And you'll find that success
Is just around the bend
He won't let you down
Wear a smile, not a frown
And walk with faith in your heart
In your heart
