Introit: Psalms xxvii. 8-9

    The Lord is the strength of His people, and the protector of the salvation of His anointed: save, O Lord, Thy people, and bless Thy inheritance, and rule them for ever. Ps. Unto Thee will I cry, O Lord: O my God, be not Thou silent to me, lest if Thou be silent to me, I become like them that go down into the pit. ℣. Glory be to the Father.

Collect

    O God of all power and might, who art the giver of all good things; implant in our hearts the love of Thy name, increase in us true religion, nourish us with all goodness and by Thy mercy keep us in the same. Through our Lord.

Commemoration of St. Anthony Mary Zaccaria

Collect

    Make us, O Lord God, in the spirit of Paul the apostle, thoroughly to learn the science of Jesus Christ, which surpasseth all understanding, by which blessed Anthony Mary enriched Thy Church with new families of clerics and virgins. Through the same our Lord.

Epistle: Romans vi. 3-11

    Lesson from the Epistle of blessed Paul the Apostle to the Romans. Brethren, all we who are baptized in Christ Jesus are baptized in His death. For we are buried together with Him by baptism unto death; that as Christ is risen from the dead by the glory of the Father, so we also may walk in newness of life. For if we have been planted together in the likeness of His death, we shall also be in the likeness of His resurrection. Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with Him, that the body of sin may be destroyed, and that we may serve sin no longer. For he that is dead is justified from sin. Now if ye be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall live also together with Christ. Knowing that Christ, rising again from the dead, dieth now no more, death shall no more have dominion over Him. For in that He died to sin He died once; but in that He liveth, He liveth unto God. So do you also reckon yourselves to be dead indeed to sin, but alive to God; in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Gradual: Psalms lxxxix. 13, 1

    Return, O Lord, a little; and be entreated in favor of Thy servants. ℣. Lord, Thou hast been our refuge from generation to generation.

Alleluia: Psalms xxx. 2-3

    Alleluia, alleluia. ℣. In Thee, O Lord, have I hoped, let me never be confounded: deliver me in Thy justice, and release me; bow down Thy ear to me, make haste to deliver me. Alleluia.

Gospel: Mark viii. 1-9

    + The continuation of the holy Gospel according to St. Mark. At that time, when there was a great multitude with Jesus, and had nothing to eat, calling His disciples together, He saith to them: I have compassion on the multitude, for behold they have now been with Me three days, and have nothing to eat; and if I shall send them away fasting to their home, they will faint in the way: for some of them came from afar off. And His disciples answered Him: From whence can any one fill them here with bread in the wilderness? And He asked them: How many loaves have ye? Who said: Seven. And He commanded the people to sit down on the ground. And taking the seven loaves, giving thanks, He broke and gave to His disciples to set before the people. And they had a few little fishes, and He blessed them, and commanded them to be set before them. And they did eat, and were filled; and they took up that which was left of the fragments, seven baskets: and they that had eaten were about four thousand: and He sent them away.

Offertory: Psalms xvi. 5, 6-7

    Perfect Thou my goings in Thy paths, that my footsteps be not moved: incline Thy ear, and hear my words: show forth Thy wonderful mercies, Thou who savest them that trust in Thee, O Lord.

Secret

    Be appeased, O Lord, by our supplications, and graciously accept these offerings of Thy people: neither suffering the hope of anyone to be in vain, nor his prayer to remain unheard, that we may obtain that for which we faithfully pray. Through our Lord.

Commemoration of St. Anthony Mary Zaccaria

Secret

    Grant, O Lord, that we may bring to Thy heavenly banquet purity both of mind and body, such as wonderfully shone forth from blessed Anthony Mary, when he offered this most holy sacrifice. Through our Lord.

Communion: Psalms xxvi. 6

    I will go round, and offer up in His tabernacle a sacrifice of jubilation; I will sing, and recite a psalm to the Lord.

Postcommunion

    Grant, O Lord, that we who have been filled with Thy gifts, may be cleansed by their virtue and strengthened by their help. Through our Lord.

Commemoration of St. Anthony Mary Zaccaria

Postcommunion

    May the heavenly banquet at which we have been nourished, O Lord Jesus Christ, inflame our hearts with the fire of charity, with which blessed Anthony Mary was filled when he bore the holy standard of the Eucharist against the enemies of Thy Church: Who livest and reignest.
