Now we have reached the 2nd Sunday of Lent, so we are 10 days into our 40 day Lenten journey. The scriptures for today encourage us to stay the course and keep our focus on the Lord. We are reminded to seek God's face, place our trust in the Lord, and listen to His word.
In our entrance antiphon from Psalm 27 verses 8 & 9, we echo our own heart's deepest desire as we proclaim:
Entrance Antiphon
Of you my heart has spoken: Seek his face.
It is your face, O Lord, that I seek;
hide not your face from me.
(Psalm 27:8-9)
Psalm 33
"Lord, let your mercy be on us, as we place our trust in you."
Gospel Acclamation
"From the shining cloud the Father’s voice is heard:
This is my beloved Son, hear him."
(Matthew 17:5)
Communion Antiphon
This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased;
listen to him.
(Matthew 17:5)
