Dios de misericordia, confesamos que hemos pecado contra ti por pensamiento, palabra y obra, por lo que hemos hecho y lo que hemos dejado de hacer. No te hemos amado con todo el corazón; no hemos amado a nuestro prójimo como a nosotros mismos. Sincera y humildemente nos arrepentimos. Por amor de tu Hijo Jesucristo, ten piedad de nosotros y perdónanos; así tu voluntad será nuestra alegría y andaremos por tus caminos, para gloria de tu Nombre. Amén.
Dios omnipotente tenga misericordia de nosotros, perdone todos nuestros pecados por Jesucristo nuestro Señor, nos fortalezca en toda bondad y por el poder del Espíritu Santo, nos conserve en la vida eterna. Amén.
Oh Dios, dígnate librarnos.
Señor, apresúrate a socorrernos.
Gloria al Padre, y al Hijo y al Espíritu Santo: como era en el principio, ahora y siempre, por los siglos de los siglos. Amén.
Salmo 135
¡Aleluya! Alaben el Nombre del Señor; *
alábenle, siervos del Señor,
Los que están de pie en la casa del Señor, *
en los atrios de la casa de nuestro Dios.
Alaben al Señor, porque el Señor es bueno; *
canten alabanzas a su Nombre, que es amable;
Porque el Señor ha escogido a Jacob para sí, *
y a Israel por posesión suya.
Yo sé que el Señor es grande, *
y nuestro Soberano, mayor que todos los dioses.
El Señor hace lo que quiere *
en los cielos y en la tierra, en los mares y en todos los abismos.
Hace subir las nubes de los linderos de la tierra; *
con los relámpagos desata la lluvia,
y saca de sus depósitos los vientos.
El es quien hirió a los primogénitos de Egipto, *
tanto del hombre como de la bestia.
Envió señales y prodigios en medio de ti, oh Egipto, *
contra Faraón y contra todos sus siervos.
Derribó a grandes naciones *
y mató a reyes poderosos:
A Sehón, rey amorreo, y a Og, rey de Basán, *
y a todos los reinos de Canaán.
Dio la tierra de ellos en heredad, *
en heredad a Israel su pueblo.
Oh Señor, eterno es tu Nombre, *
tu renombre, oh Señor, de edad en edad.
El Señor defiende a su pueblo, *
y a sus siervos muestra compasión.
Los ídolos de los paganos son plata y oro, *
hechura de manos humanas.
Boca tienen, mas no hablan; *
ojos tienen, mas no ven;
Orejas tienen, mas no oyen; *
no hay aliento en su boca.
Semejantes a ellos son los que los hacen, *
y cualquiera que confía en ellos.
Casa de Israel, bendice al Señor; *
casa de Aarón, bendice al Señor;
Casa de Leví, bendice al Señor; *
los que temen al Señor, bendigan al Señor.
Desde Sión sea bendito el Señor, *
quien mora en Jerusalén. ¡Aleluya!
Gloria al Padre, y al Hijo y al Espíritu Santo: como era en el principio, ahora y siempre, por los siglos de los siglos. Amén.
Lectura de San Juan 16:1-15
Jesús dijo: "Les digo estas cosas para que no pierdan su fe en mí. Los expulsarán de las sinagogas, y aun llegará el momento en que cualquiera que los mate creerá que así presta un servicio a Dios. Esto lo harán porque no nos han conocido, ni al Padre ni a mí. Les digo esto para que, cuando llegue el momento, se acuerden de que yo se lo había dicho ya. No les dije esto desde un principio porque yo estaba con ustedes. Pero ahora me voy para estar con el que me ha enviado, y ninguno de ustedes me pregunta a dónde voy; al contrario, se han puesto muy tristes porque les he dicho estas cosas. Pero les digo la verdad: es mejor para ustedes que yo me vaya. Porque si no me voy, el Defensor no vendrá para estar con ustedes; pero si me voy, yo se lo enviaré. Cuando él venga, mostrará claramente a la gente del mundo quién es pecador, quién es inocente, y quién recibe el juicio de Dios. Quién es pecador: el que no cree en mí; quién es inocente: yo, que voy al Padre, y ustedes ya no me verán; quién recibe el juicio de Dios: el que gobierna este mundo, que ya ha sido condenado. Tengo mucho más que decirles, pero en este momento sería demasiado para ustedes. Cuando venga el Espíritu de la verdad, él los guiará a toda verdad; porque no hablará por su propia cuenta, sino que dirá todo lo que oiga, y les hará saber las cosas que van a suceder. Él mostrará mi gloria, porque recibirá de lo que es mío y se lo dará a conocer a ustedes. Todo lo que el Padre tiene, es mío también; por eso dije que el Espíritu recibirá de lo que es mío y se lo dará a conocer a ustedes.”
Palabra del Señor.
Demos gracias a Dios.
Cántico de Simeón Nunc dimittis - San Lucas 2:29-32
Ahora despides, Señor, a tu siervo, * conforme a tu palabra, en paz. Porque mis ojos han visto a tu Salvador, * a quien has presentado ante todos los pueblos: Luz para alumbrar a las naciones, * y gloria de tu pueblo Israel.
Gloria al Padre, y al Hijo y al Espíritu Santo: como era en el principio, ahora y siempre, por los siglos de los siglos. Amén.
Credo de los Apóstoles
Creo en Dios Padre todopoderoso, creador del cielo y de la tierra. Creo en Jesucristo, su único Hijo, nuestro Señor. Fue concebido por obra y gracia del Espíritu Santo y nació de la Virgen María. Padeció bajo el poder de Poncio Pilato.
Fue crucificado, muerto y sepultado. Descendió a los infiernos. Al tercer día resucitó de entre los muertos. Subió a los cielos, y está sentado a la diestra de Dios Padre. Desde allí ha de venir a juzgar a vivos y muertos.
Creo en el Espíritu Santo, la santa Iglesia católica, la comunión de los santos, el perdón de los pecados, la resurrección de los muertos, y la vida eterna. Amén.
Plegarias
El Señor sea con ustedes.
Y con tu espíritu.
Oremos.

Señor Jesucristo, por tu muerte quitaste el aguijón de la muerte: Concede a tus siervos que caminemos de tal modo en la fe hacia el lugar a donde tú nos has precedido, que al fin durmamos apaciblemente en ti, y despertemos a tu semejanza; por amor de tu tierna misericordia. Amén.
Padre todopoderoso, que entregaste a tu único Hijo para morar por nuestros pecados y resucitar para nuestra justificación: Danos gracia para desechar la levadura de malicia e iniquidad, de tal modo que te sirvamos siempre con pureza de vida y verdad; por Jesucristo tu Hijo nuestro Señor, que vive y reina contigo y el Espíritu Santo, un solo Dios, ahora y por siempre. Amén.
Oh Dios, tú eres la vida de los que viven, la luz de los fieles, la fortaleza de los que trabajan, y el descanso de los muertos: Te damos gracias por las bendiciones del día que termina, y humildemente te suplicamos nos des tu protección durante la noche que comienza. Llévanos en seguridad hasta las horas del alba; por aquél que murió y resucitó por nosotros, tu Hijo nuestro Salvador Jesucristo.
Puede seguir intercesiones y acciones de gracias.
Oremos al Señor.
Señor, ten piedad. oSeñor, te alabamos!
Oración de San Juan Crisóstomo
Dios todopoderoso, que nos diste la gracia para unirnos en este momento, a fin de ofrecerte nuestras súplicas en común; y que, por tu muy amado Hijo, nos prometiste que, cuando dos o tres se congregan en su Nombre, tú estarás en medio de ellos: Realiza ahora, Señor, nuestros deseos y peticiones como mejor nos convenga; y concédenos en este mundo el conocimiento de tu verdad y en el venidero, la vida eterna. Amén.
Bendigamos al Señor.
Demos gracias a Dios.
Gloria a Dios, cuyo poder, actuando en nosotros, puede realizar todas las cosas infinitamente mejor de lo que podemos pedir o pensar: Gloria a él en la Iglesia de generación en generación, y en Cristo Jesús por los siglos de los siglos. Amén. Efesios 3:20, 21
Most merciful God,
we confess that we have sinned against you
in thought, word, and deed,
by what we have done,
and by what we have left undone.
We have not loved you with our whole heart;
we have not loved our neighbors as ourselves.
We are truly sorry and we humbly repent.
For the sake of your Son Jesus Christ,
have mercy on us and forgive us;
that we may delight in your will,
and walk in your ways,
to the glory of your Name.
Amen
May Almighty God have mercy on us,
forgive us all our sins
through our Lord Jesus Christ,
strengthen us in all goodness,
and by the power of the Holy Spirit
keep us in eternal life.
Grace to you and peace from God our Fa-ther and from/the Lord Je-sus Christ. Worship the Lord in/the beauty of his holi-ness; let/the whole earth trem-ble be-fore him.
Let my prayer be set forth/in your sight as in-cense, the lifting up/of my hands as/the evening sacri-fice. I will bless the Lord who gives/me coun-sel; my heart teaches me, night after night.
I have set/the Lord always be-fore me; be-cause he is/at my right hand, I shall not fall. O God, make speed/to save us. O Lord, make haste/to help us.
Glory to/the Fath-er, and to/the Son, and to/the Ho-ly Spi-rit: as it was in/the be-ginning, is now, and will be for-ever A-men.
O Gracious Light
O gracious Light,
pure brightness of the
everliving Father in heaven.
O Jesus, Christ, holy and blessed!
Now as we come to the setting of the sun,
and our eyes behold the vesper light,
we sing your praises, O God:
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
you are worthy at all times
to be praised by happy voices,
O Son of God, O Giver of life,
and to be glorified through all the worlds.
For I have o-beyed the Lord's com-mand; I have not re-belled a-gainst my God. For I am a-ware of all his regu-la-tions, and I do not re-ject his rules.
I was inno-cent be-fore him, and kept my-self from sin-ning. The Lord re-warded me for my god-ly deeds; he took notice of my blameless be-hav-ior.
You prove to/be loyal to one who/is faith-ful; you prove to/be trust-worthy to one who/is inno-cent. You prove to/be re-lia-ble to one who/is blame-less, but you prove to/be de-ceptive to one who/is per-verse.
For you de-liver op-pressed peo-ple, but you bring down those who have/a proud look. In-deed, you light my lamp, Lord. My God il-lumin-ates the darkness a-round me.
In-deed, with your help I can charge/a-gainst an ar-my; by my God's power I can jump over a wall.
The one true God acts in a faithful man-ner; the Lord's promise is re-lia-ble. He is a shield to all who take shelter in him. In-deed, who is God be-sides the Lord?
Who is/a pro-tector be-sides our God? The one true God gives me strength; he re-moves the obsta-cles in my way. He gives me the a-gili-ty of a deer;
he en-ables me to ne-goti-ate the rugged ter-rain. He trains my hands for bat-tle; my arms can bend even the strongest bow. You give me your pro-tec-tive shield;
your right hand sup-ports me. Your willing-ness to help en-ables me to pre-vail. You widen my path; my feet do not slip. I chase my ene-mies and catch them;
I do/not turn back un-til I wipe them out. I beat them to death; they fall at/my feet. You give me strength for bat-tle; you make my foes kneel be-fore me.
You make my ene-mies re-treat; I de-stroy those who hate me. They cry out, but there/is none to help them; they cry out to/the Lord, but he does not answer them.
I grind them as fine wind-blown dust; I beat them under-foot like clay in/the street. You res-cue me from a hostile ar-my. You make me a leader of na-tions;
People over whom I had no au-thori-ty are now my sub-jects. When they hear of my ex-ploits, they sub-mit to me. Foreign-ers are power-less be-fore me. Foreign-ers lose their cour-age;
they shake with fear as they leave their strong-holds. The Lord is a-live! My Pro-tec-tor is praise-wor-thy. The God who de-livers me is ex-alted as king. The one true God com-pletely vindi-cates me;
he makes nations sub-mit to me. He de-livers me from my ene-mies. You snatch me a-way from those who at-tack me; you res-cue me from vio-lent men.
So I will give you thanks be-fore the nations, O Lord. I will sing praises to you. He gives his king mag-nifi-cent vic-to-ry; he is faithful to his chosen ruler, to Da-vid and his de-scendants for-ev-er.
Glory to/the Fath-er, and to/the Son, and to/the Ho-ly Spi-rit: as it was in/the be-ginning, is now, and will be for-ever A-men.
Beloved, I urge you as aliens and exiles to abstain from the desires of the flesh that wage war against the soul. Conduct yourselves honorably among the Gentiles, so that, though they malign you as evildoers, they may see your honorable deeds and glorify God when he comes to judge.
For the Lord's sake accept the authority of every human institution, whether of the emperor as supreme, or of governors, as sent by him to punish those who do wrong and to praise those who do right. For it is God's will that by doing right you should silence the ignorance of the foolish. As servants of God, live as free people, yet do not use your freedom as a pretext for evil. Honor everyone. Love the family of believers. Fear God. Honor the emperor. Slaves, accept the authority of your masters with all deference, not only those who are kind and gentle but also those who are harsh. For it is a credit to you if, being aware of God, you endure pain while suffering unjustly. If you endure when you are beaten for doing wrong, what credit is that? But if you endure when you do right and suffer for it, you have God's approval. For to this you have been called, because Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example, so that you should follow in his steps. "He committed no sin, and no deceit was found in his mouth." When he was abused, he did not return abuse; when he suffered, he did not threaten; but he entrusted himself to the one who judges justly. He himself bore our sins in his body on the cross, so that, free from sins, we might live for righteousness; by his wounds you have been healed. For you were going astray like sheep, but now you have returned to the shepherd and guardian of your souls.
Glory to you, Lord God of our fath-ers; you are worthy of praise; glory to you. Glory to you for/the radi-ance of your holy Name; we will praise you and highly ex-alt you for ev-er.
Glory to you in/the splen-dor of your tem-ple; on the throne of your maj-es-ty, glory to you. Glory to you, seated be-tween the Cher-u-bim; we will praise you and highly ex-alt you for ev-er.
Glory to you, be-hold-ing the depths; in the high vault of heav-en, glory to you. Glory to you, Fath-er, Son, and Ho-ly Spi-rit; we will praise you and highly ex-alt you for ev-er.
"This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. No one has greater love than this, to lay down one's life for one's friends. You are my friends if you do what I command you. I do not call you servants any longer, because the servant does not know what the master is doing; but I have called you friends, because I have made known to you everything that I have heard from my Father. You did not choose me but I chose you. And I appointed you to go and bear fruit, fruit that will last, so that the Father will give you whatever you ask him in my name. I am giving you these commands so that you may love one another.
"If the world hates you, be aware that it hated me before it hated you. If you belonged to the world, the world would love you as its own. Because you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the worldtherefore the world hates you. Remember the word that I said to you, 'Servants are not greater than their master.' If they persecuted me, they will persecute you; if they kept my word, they will keep yours also. But they will do all these things to you on account of my name, because they do not know him who sent me. If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not have sin; but now they have no excuse for their sin. Whoever hates me hates my Father also. If I had not done among them the works that no one else did, they would not have sin. But now they have seen and hated both me and my Father. It was to fulfill the word that is written in their law, 'They hated me without a cause.'
"When the Advocate comes, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth who comes from the Father, he will testify on my behalf. You also are to testify because you have been with me from the beginning.
Lord, you now have set your servant free to go/in peace as you have prom-ised; For these eyes of mine have seen the Sav-ior, whom you have pre-pared for all the world to see:
A Light to en-lighten the na-tions, and the glory of your people Is-ra-el. Lord, you now have set your servant free to go/in peace as you have prom-ised;
Glory to/the Fath-er, and to/the Son, and to/the Ho-ly Spi-rit: as it was in/the be-ginning, is now, and will be for-ever. A-men.
We/be-lieve in God, the Father al-might-y, cre-ator of heaven and earth. We/be-lieve in Je-sus Christ, his on-ly son, our Lord.
He was/con-ceived by/the power of/the Ho-ly Spi-rit and born of/the Vir-gin Mar-y. He suffered under Pon-tius Pi-late, was cruci-fied, died, and was bur-ied.
He de-scended to/the dead. On/the third day he rose a-gain. He a-scended into heav-en, and is seated at/the right hand of/the Fath-er.
He will come a-gain to judge the living and the dead. We/be-lieve in/the Ho-ly Spi-rit, the _ holy catho-lic Church,
the com-munion of saints, the for-give-ness of sins, the resur-rec-tion of/the bod-y, and the life ever-lasting. A-men.
Our Father, who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come,
Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread,
and forgive us our debts,
as we forgive our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation
but deliver us from evil:
for thine is the kingdom, and the power,
and the glory, forever,
Amen.
Show us your mercy, O Lord; And grant us your sal-va-tion. Clothe your minis-ters with righteous-ness; Let your people sing with joy.
Give peace, O Lord, in all the world; For only in you can we live in safe-ty. Lord, keep this nation under your care; And guide us in/the way of justice and truth.
Let your way be known up-on earth; Your saving health among all na-tions. Let not the needy, O Lord, be for-got-ten; Nor the hope of/the poor be taken a-way.
Cre-ate in us clean hearts, O God; And sus-tain us by your Holy Spi-rit. Show us your mercy, O Lord; And grant us your sal-va-tion.
Almighty God, whose blessed Son our Savior Jesus Christ ascended far above all heavens that he might fill all things: Mercifully give us faith to perceive that, according to his promise, he abides with his Church on earth, even to the end of the ages; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, in glory everlasting.
Amen.
A Collect for Guidance
Heavenly Father, in you we live and move and have our being: We humbly pray you so to guide and govern us by your Holy Spirit, that in all the cares and occupations of our life we may not forget you, but may remember that we are ever walking in your sight; through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.
Prayer for Mission
O God, you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth, and sent your blessed Son to preach peace to those who are far off and to those who are near: Grant that people everywhere may seek after you and find you; bring the nations into your fold; pour out your Spirit upon all flesh; and hasten the coming of your kingdom; through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.
We pray for peace and especially for the people of Ukraine, saying together,
Eternal God, in whose perfect kingdom no sword is drawn but the sword of righteousness, no strength known but the strength of love: So mightily spread abroad your Spirit, that all peoples may be gathered under the banner of the Prince of Peace, as children of one Father; to whom be dominion and glory, now and for ever. Amen.

and you have prom-ised through your well be-loved Son that when two/or three are gathered in his Name you will be in/the midst of them:
Ful-fill now, O Lord, our de-sires and pe-ti-tions as may be best for us; granting us in this world knowledge of your truth, and in/the age to come life ever-lasting. A-men.
Let us bless the Lord. Alle-lu-ia, Alle-lu-ia! Thanks be to God. Alle-lu-ia, Alle-lu-ia! Glory to God whose power, working in us, can do infi-nite-ly more than we can ask or im-ag-ine
Glory to him from gener-a-tion to gener-a-tion in/the Church, and in Christ Je-sus for-ever and ever A-men. Let us bless the Lord. Alle-lu-ia, Alle-lu-ia! Thanks be to God. Alle-lu-ia, Alle-lu-ia!

1 Alleluia! sing to Jesus! his the scepter, his the throne; Alleluia! his the triumph, his the victory alone; Hark! the songs of peaceful Zion thunder like a mighty flood; Jesus out of every nation hath redeemed us by his blood.
2 Alleluia! not as orphans are we left in sorrow now; Alleluia! he is near us, faith believes, nor questions how: though the cloud from sight received him, when the forty days were o'er, shall our hearts forget his promise, "I am with you evermore"?
3 Alleluia! Bread of Heaven, thou on earth our food, our stay! Alleluia! here the sinful flee to thee from day to day: Intercessor, friend of sinners, earth's Redeemer, plead for me, where the songs of all the sinless sweep across the crystal sea.
4 Alleluia! King eternal, thee the Lord of lords we own: Alleluia! born of Mary, earth thy footstool, heaven thy throne: thou within the veil hast entered, robed in flesh, our great High Priest: thou on earth both Priest and Victim in the eucharistic feast.
5 Alleluia! sing to Jesus! his the scepter his the throne; Alleluia! his the triumph, his the victory alone; Hark! the songs of holy Zion thunder like a mighty flood; Jesus out of every nation hath redeemed us by his blood.
