A Reading from the Book of the Prophet Sirach (SIR 3:2-6,
12-14)
God sets a father in honor over his children; a mother’s
authority he confirms over
her sons. Whoever honors his father atones for sins, and
preserves himself from
them. When he prays, he is heard; he stores up riches who
reveres his mother.
Whoever honors his father is gladdened by children, and, when he
prays, is heard.
Whoever reveres his father will live a long life; he who obeys
his father brings
comfort to his mother. My son, take care of your father when he
is old; grieve him
not as long as he lives. Even if his mind fail, be considerate
of him; revile him not
all the days of his life; kindness to a father will not be
forgotten, firmly planted
against the debt of your sins —a house raised in justice to
you.
Lector: The Word of the Lord. People: Thanks be to God.
December 27, 2020The Holy Family of Jesus, Mary and Joseph

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. Priest: Lord have mercy. People: Lord
have mercy.Priest: Christ have mercy. People: Christ have
mercy.Priest: Lord have mercy. People: Lord have mercy.*

A Reading from the Letter of St. Peter to the Colossians (COL
3:12-21)
Brothers and sisters: Put on, as God’s chosen ones, holy and
beloved, heartfelt compassion, kindness,humility, gentleness, and
patience, bearing with one another and forgiving one another, if
one has agrievance against another; as the Lord has forgiven you,
so must you also do. And over all these put onlove, that is, the
bond of perfection. And let the peace of Christ control your
hearts, the peace intowhich you were also called in one body. And
be thankful. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, asin all
wisdom you teach and admonish one another, singing psalms, hymns,
and spiritual songs withgratitude in your hearts to God. And
whatever you do, in word or in deed, do everything in the name
ofthe Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.
Wives, be subordinate to your husbands,as is proper in the Lord.
Husbands, love your wives, and avoid any bitterness toward them.
Children,obey your parents in everything, for this is pleasing to
the Lord. Fathers, do not provoke your children,so they may not
become discouraged.
Lector: The Word of the Lord. People: Thanks be to God.
A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Luke (LK 2:22-40)
People: Glory to you, O Lord.
When the days were completed for their purification according to
the law of Moses, They took him up toJerusalem to present him to
the Lord, just as it is written in the law of the Lord, Every male
that opens thewomb shall be consecrated to the Lord, and to offer
the sacrifice of a pair of turtledoves or two young pigeons,in
accordance with the dictate in the law of the Lord. Now there was a
man in Jerusalem whose name wasSimeon. This man was righteous and
devout, awaiting the consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was
uponhim. It had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he
should not see death before he had seen the Christ ofthe Lord. He
came in the Spirit into the temple; and when the parents brought in
the child Jesus to perform thecustom of the law in regard to him,
He took him into his arms and blessed God, saying: “Now, Master,
youmay let your servant go in peace, according to your word, for my
eyes have seen your salvation, which youprepared in sight of all
the peoples, a light for revelation to the Gentiles, and glory for
your people Israel.” Thechild’s father and mother were amazed at
what was said about him; and Simeon blessed them and said to
Maryhis mother, “Behold, this child is destined for the fall and
rise of many in Israel, ad to be a sign that will becontradicted
—and you yourself a sword will pierce— so that the thoughts of many
hearts may be revealed.”There was also a prophetess, Anna, the
daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Asher. She was advanced in
years,having lived seven years with her husband after her marriage,
and then as a widow until she was eighty-four.She never left the
temple, but worshiped night and day with fasting and prayer.And
coming forward at that verytime, she gave thanks to God and spoke
about the child to all who were awaiting the redemption of
Jerusalem.When they had fulfilled all the prescriptions of the law
of the Lord, they returned to Galilee, to their own townof
Nazareth. The child grew and became strong, filled with wisdom; and
the favor of God was upon him.
Priest: The Gospel of the Lord. People: Praise to You, Lord
Jesus Christ.
The Responsorial: Blessed are those who fear the Lord and walk
in his ways. (PS 128:1-2, 3, 4-5)
Lector: Alleluia! People Only: Alleluia! (Stand) Lector Only:
Let the peace of Christ control your hearts; let the word of Christ
dwell in you richly. (COL 3:15A, 16A) People Only: Alleluia!
Priest: The Lord be with you. People: And with your spirit.

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,At the words that follow, up to and including and
became Man, all bow
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 ofLife, who
proceeds from the Father and the Son,Who with the Father and the
Son is adored andglorified, who has spoken through the
prophets.
I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church.I confess
one Baptism for the forgiveness of sinsand I look forward to the
resurrection of the deadand the life of the world to come.
Amen.
