2nd Sunday of Lent Year B February 28th

Welcome before Mass: (Commentator)

Tēnā Koutou Katoa. I warmly welcome you here today, the second Sunday of Lent, Year B. In this liturgy, we are drawn to the light of Christ which transfigures and changes all things. This light brings us together as one people, to eat and drink the Body of Christ, and so become the Body of Christ, and accept the mission to which we are called; to take Christ’s changing light to the world. To prepare to celebrate this Eucharist, let us be still for a few moments. (20 … seconds - stay at microphone). Welcome to ……………………… (parish name). Let us stand as one people and sing together.

Prayer of the Faithful (NOTE: an option for singing the response is provided – if you choose to use this, please sing it through at the beginning of the prayer, giving people an opportunity to learn and respond, then after each petition.)

For the Church – that in the Sunday assembly and in our daily lives, we listen deeply to God’s ‘Son, the beloved,’ and that our lives will be transformed by this encounter.

(Silence)

For world leaders – that they will conscientiously strive to build bridges of peace within and between nations and that they will unite in a just distribution of Covid vaccine which meets the needs of all, including the poorest people and nations.
