The Confiteor I confess to almighty God and to you, my brothers and sisters, that I have greatly sinned, in my thoughts and in my words, in what I have done and in what I have failed to do, [striking breast three times] through my fault, through my fault, through my most grievous fault; therefore I ask blessed Mary, ever-virgin, all the Angels and Saints, and you my brothers and sisters, to pray for me to the Lord our God.

Liturgy of the Word

First Reading Acts 10:34a, 37-43

Peter proceeded to speak and said: “You know what has happened all over Judea, beginning in Galilee after the baptism that John preached, how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and power. He went about doing good and healing all those oppressed by the devil, for God was with him. We are witnesses of all that he did both in the country of the Jews and in Jerusalem. They put him to death by hanging him on a tree. This man God raised on the third day and granted that he be visible, not to all the people, but to us, the witnesses chosen by God in advance, who ate and drank with him after he rose from the dead. He commissioned us to preach to the people and testify that he is the one appointed by God as judge of the living and the dead. To him all the prophets bear witness, that everyone who believes in him will receive forgiveness of sins through his name.”

Responsorial Psalm Psalm 118: This Is the Day the Lord Has Made

Second Reading I Corinthians 5:6b-8

Brothers and sisters: Do you not know that a little yeast leavens all the dough? Clear out the old yeast, so that you may become a fresh batch of dough, inasmuch as you are unleavened. For our paschal lamb, Christ, has been sacrificed. Therefore we celebrate the feast, not with the old yeast, the yeast of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

Gospel Acclamation The Strife Is O’er

Deacon (or Priest): The Lord be with you. Assembly: And with your spirit. Deacon (or Priest): A reading from the holy Gospel according to John. Assembly: Glory to you, O Lord.

Gospel Proclamation John 20:1-9

On the first day of the week, Mary of Magdala came to the tomb early in the morning, while it was still dark, and saw the stone removed from the tomb. So she ran and went to Simon Peter and to the other disciple whom Jesus loved, and told them, “They have taken the Lord from the tomb, and we don’t know where they put him.” So Peter and the other disciple went out and came to the tomb. They both ran, but the other disciple ran faster than Peter and arrived at the tomb first; he bent down and saw the burial cloths there, and the cloth that had covered his head, not with the burial cloths but rolled up in a separate place. Then the other disciple also went in, the one who had arrived at the tomb first, and he saw and believed. For they did not understand the Scripture that he had to rise from the dead.

Deacon (or Priest): The gospel of the Lord. Assembly: Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.

Renewal of Baptismal Promises

Priest: Dear brothers and sisters, through the Paschal Mystery we have been buried with Christ in Baptism, so that we may walk with him in newness of life. And so, now that our Lenten observance is concluded, let us renew the promises of Holy Baptism, by which we once renounced Satan and his works and promised to serve God in the holy Catholic Church. And so I ask you: Priest: Do you renounce Satan? All: I do. Priest: And all his works? All: I do. Priest: And all his empty show? All: I do. Priest: Do you believe in God, the Father almighty, Creator of heaven and earth? All: I do. Priest: Do you believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord, who was born of the Virgin Mary, suffered death and was buried, rose again from the dead and is seated at the right hand of the Father? All: I do. Priest: Do you believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy Catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting? All: I do. And the Priest concludes: And may almighty God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has given us new birth by water and the Holy Spirit and bestowed on us forgiveness of our sins, keep us by his grace, in Christ Jesus our Lord, for eternal life. All: Amen.

Liturgy of the Eucharist

Preparation of the Altar and the Gifts Christ Rising Again

K. Lee Scott

Refrain: Christ rising again dies no more, death has no strength, no power over him; for in that he lives, he lives to God.

Now death with all its dread o’er us no longer reigns, for Jesus rising from the tomb has burst its iron chains. (Refrain)

Destruction is destroyed by Christ, our Lord and King, whose rising forth with life restored removes death’s dreadful sting. (Refrain)

Victorious Lord of Life, who sets our hearts aflame, through deadly pain and fearful strife, we triumph in his name. (Refrain)

Now lift your heart and voice in praise of him who died. In Christ let all the earth rejoice, Our Lord, once crucified. (Refrain)

Bread and wine are brought to the table and the deacon or priest prepares these gifts. The priest then invites all to pray. [Stand] Assembly: May the Lord accept the sacrifice at your hands for the praise and glory of his name, for our good, and the good of all his holy Church.
