1. In bread we bring you, Lord, our bodies labour, In wine we offer you ours spirits’ grief. We do not ask you, Lord, who is my neighbor. But stand united now, one in belief. Oh we have gladly heard your Word, your holy word. And now in answer, Lord, our gifts we bring. Our selfish heart make true, our failing faith renew. Our lives belong to you, our Lord and King 2. The bread we offer you, is blessed and broken, And it becomes for us our spirit food. Over the cup we bring your word is spoken; Make it your gift to us, your healing blood. Take all that daily toil plants in our heart’s poor soil. Take all we start and spoil, each hopeful dream. The chance we have missed, the grace we resist, Lord, in thy Eucharist, take and redeem.

1. THIS IS MY BODY, broken for you, Bringing you wholeness, making you free. Take it and drink it, and when you do, Do it in love for me. 2. This is my blood poured out for you, Bringing forgiveness, making you free. Take it and it, and when you do, Do it in love for me. 3. Back to my Father soon I shall go. Do not forget me; then you will see I am still with you, and you will know You’re very close to me. 4. Filled with my Spirit, how you will grow! You are my branches; I am the tree. If you are faithful, others will know, You are alive in me. 5. Love one another– I have loved you, and I have shown you how to be free; Serve one another, and when you do, do it in love for me.

Gloria (Sung in Sesotho)

Liturgy of the Word A Reading: Acts 19:1-8

While Apollos was in Corinth, Paul travelled through the interior of the country and down to Ephesus where he found some disciples. He said to them, “Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you became believers?” They answered him, “We have never even heard that there is a Holy Spirit.” He said, “How were you baptized? “They replied, “With the baptism of John.” Paul then said, “John baptised with a baptism of repentance, telling the people to believe in the one who was to come after him, that is, in Jesus. “When they heard this, they were baptised in the name of the Lord Jesus. And when Paul laid his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came upon them, and they spoke in tongues and prophesied. Altogether there were about twelve men. He entered the synagogue, and for three months debated boldly with persuasive arguments about the Kingdom of God.

The word of the Lord.

Psalm: 68:2-3,4-5,6-7

R. Sing to God, O kingdoms of the earth.

God arises; his enemies are scattered, and those who hate him flee before him. As smoke is driven away, so are they driven; as wax melts before the fire.

But the just rejoice and exult before God; they are glad and rejoice. Sing to God, chant praise to his name; whose name is the LORD.

The father of orphans and the defender of widows is God in his holy dwelling. God gives a home to the forsaken; he leads forth prisoners to prosperity.

Alleluia. Alleluia.

If then you were raised with Christ, seek what is above, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God.

Alleluia.

Gospel: John 16:29-33

The disciples said to Jesus, “Now you are talking plainly, and not in any figure of speech. Now we realize that you know everything and that you do not need to have anyone question you. Because of this we believe that you came from God. “Jesus answered

them, “Do you believe now? Behold, the hour is coming and has arrived when each of you will be scattered to his own home and you will leave me alone. But I am not alone, because the Father is with me. I have told you this so that you might have peace in me. In the world you will have trouble, but take courage, I have conquered the world.” The Gospel of the Lord
