    The Liturgy of the Word

    First Reading

    A reading from the Book of Tobit;

    Now you will feel no cold, for each of you will be warmth to the other. Now there isno loneliness, for each of you will be a companion to the other. Now you are two bod-

    ies but there is only one life before you. Go now to your dwelling place to enter into

    the days of your togetherness and may your days be good and long upon the earth.

    This is the word of the Lord.

    Re sponsorial psalm

    Second Reading

    A reading from the rst letter of St Paul to the Corinthians

    Love is always patient and kind; Love is not jealous or envious,Never boastful or proud, never rude or selsh.

    Love does not demand its own way; it is not irritable or resentful.

    It is never glad about injustice, but rejoices whenever the truth wins out.

    Love takes no pleasure in other peoples sins but delights in the truth

    If you love someone, you will be loyal to them no matter what the cost.

    You will always believe them, and always stand your ground defending them.

    All the gifts and powers from God will someday come to an end, but love goes on

    forever.

    This is the word of the Lord.

    All: Thanks be to God

    Gospel Acclamation

    Fr. Slingo: The lord be with you

    All: And with your spirit.

    Fr. Slingo: A reading from the Gospel according to John

    All: Glory to you, Lord

    Jesus said to his disciples:

    As the Father has loved me,

    so I have loved you. Remain in my love.

    If you keep my commandments

    you will remain in my love,just as I have kept my Fathers commandments

    and remain in his love.

    I have told you this

    so that my own joy may be in you

    and your joy be complete.

    This is my commandment:

    love one another,

    as I loved you.

    This is the Gospel of the Lord.

    All: Praise to you Lord Jesus Christ

    who today is united with her husband in this sacrament of marriage.

    May your fullest blessing come upon her and her husband

    so that they may together rejoice in your gift of married love(and enrich your Church with their children).

    and know that you are with them in their need.
