2. Lord, Jesus Christ, Only Begotten Son, Lord God, Lamb of God,
Son of the Father, you take away the sins of the world,
have mercy on us; you take away the sins of the world,
receive our prayer; you are seated at the right hand of the
Father, have mercy on us.
3. For you alone are the Holy One, you alone are the Lord,
you alone are the Most High, Jesus Christ,
with the Holy Spirit, in the glory of God the Father. Amen!

Gloria
Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to people of goodwill.
Verses
1. We praise you, we bless you, we adore you, we glorify you,
we give you thanks for your great glory, Lord God,
heavenly King, O God, almighty Father.
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,
(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 of life, who proceeds from the Father
and the Son, who with the Father and the Son is adored and
glorified, who has spoken through the prophets. I believe in one,
holy, catholic and apostolic Church. I confess one baptism for the
forgiveness of sins and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead
and the life of the world to come. Amen.
Preparation of the Gifts: Come to the Water

Song of Praise: As the Deer Longs
1. As the deer longs for flowing streams, So longs my soul for you, O
God. My soul does thirst for the living God. When shall I come
to see your face?
2. My tears have fed me day and night, while some have said: “Where is
your God?” But I recall as my soul pours dry,
the days of praise within your house.
3. Why do I mourn and toil within, when it is mine to hope in God?
I shall again sing praise to him. He is my help, he is my God.

Aleluya, aleluya. Aleluya, aleluya.
Credo Niceno
Creo en un solo Dios, Padre todopoderoso, Creador del cielo y de la
tierra. Creo en un solo Señor, Jesucristo, Hijo único de Dios, nacido
del Padre antes de todos los siglos: Dios de Dios, Luz de Luz, Dios
verdadero de Dios verdadero, engendrado, no creado, de la misma
naturaleza del Padre, por quien todo fue hecho; que por nosotros, los
hombres, y por nuestras salvación bajó del cielo,
Todos se inclinan: Y por obra del Espíritu Santo se encarnó de María,
la Virgen, y se hizo hombre;
Y por nuestra causa fue crucificado en tiempos de Poncio Pilato;
padeció y fue sepultado, y resucitó al tercer día, según las Escrituras,
y subió al cielo, y está sentado a la derecha del Padre; y de nuevo
vendrá con gloria para juzgar a vivos y muertos, y su reino no tendrá
fin. Creo en el Espíritu Santo, Señor y dador de vida, que procede
del Padre y el Hijo, que con el Padre y el Hijo recibe una misma
adoración y gloria, y que habló por los profetas. Creo en la Iglesia,
que es una, santa, católica y apostólica. Confieso que hay un solo
bautismo para el perdón de los pecados. Espero la resurrección de
los muertos y la vida del mundo futuro. Amén.

Give and it will be given unto –VII
Tithing has been my practice since 1963, and even at times when it seemed impossible to give sacrificially, somehow I always was
able to do it. You recall that as an Episcopal Minister I was married [again another story] but I recall sitting with my wife going
over the budget at the beginning of our married life. She said to me, “it will be tight, but we will just make it.” I looked at her
budget and realized that she had not included the tithe; the result was our first marital fight. “We can’t afford to give that much
money” she said, and I agreed, but having done so for so many years I was committed. By then I knew the Malachi text and
challenged her that if we were faithful in giving 10% to the Church that there would be enough to go around. She was skeptical, but
agreed. A handful of years later she stood up on a Sunday and told that story and witnessed “I didn’t believe it would work, but it
did.” We both still tithe to this day!! Again I am not trying to get you to give more money to IHM, but the principle is worth
noting: to the generous person God pours out blessings. This is actually easy to prove, and this is one area where testing God is
appropriate. “You cannot out give God!” It is the nature of His being to pour out his generous grace and love upon his children,
and when we act like God by being generous amazing things can happen. IHM pray for us. Fr. Jerry
Dad y se os Dara –VII
Donar ha sido mi costumbre desde el año 1963 y también a veces cuando me parecia imposible sacrificarme a donar, de alguna
manera yo lo podia hacer. Ustedes recordarán que como un Ministro Episcopal yo estaba casado (de nuevo otra historia) pero me
acuerdo que estando sentado con mi esposa revisando nuestro presupuesto al principio de nuestra vida matrimonial. Ella me dijo
“será un poco apretado, pero lo podremos hacer.” Yo revise el presupuesto y me di cuenta que ella no habia incluido el diezmo; el
resultado fué nuestra primera pelea matrimonial. “Nosotros no podremos dar tanto dinero,” ella dijo, y yo le di la razón, pero
habiendo hecho eso por muchos años yo estaba comprometido. Para entonces sabia que el texto de Malaquias y yo le rete que si
nosotros religiosamente dabamos el 10% a la Iglesia que habria suficiente para todos. Ella era escéptica pero estuvo de acuerdo.
Unos cuantos años después, se levanto un Domingo en la Iglesia y conto esa historia que ella testifico. “Yo no crei que eso
trabajaria, pero resulto.” Nosotros dos todavia donamos el diezmo hasta este dia!! De Nuevo yo no estoy tratando de que ustedes
den más dinero a ICM pero el principio es bueno anotarlo: A la gente generosa Dios le manda muchas bendiciones. Esto es fácil de
probar y esta es un área donde probando a Dios es apropiado. “Tú no puedes dar más que Dios! Es la natura de su Ser de desbordar
su gracia generosa y el amor a sus hijos y cuando nosotros actuamos como Dios siendo generosos cosas maravillosas pueden pasar.
ICM Ora por nosotros. Fr. Jerry
