The Triune God, Almighty and Eternal, loving and merciful, we give praise and thanks to you, O God, for your inclusion and blessing to all of us that you have gathered in this place in good health, safe and full of joy.
Thanks be to God for his grace, we can gather here this morning, on Sunday, the 3rd day of the Congress, in good health. We gather in God's love to pray together before we start our activities.
Holy God, you are good, you are the most extraordinary creator, you sent Jesus Your Son to direct us to the right path. Guide us today, the 3rd day of our Congress. Bless always all that we will do today. Pour out Your Holy Spirit so that everything we do today, all decisions we will make today, are always under Your guidance and according to Your will. Father, Strengthen the unity between us in this organization, and renew our spirit of love for one another, so that we can continue to be friends in Your circle of love. Grow a sense of peace, a sense of brotherhood in the organization of the Association of Salesian Cooperators, we always help each other, and with this we can show the world Your love and mercy. Use us as instruments of peace, proclaiming Your gospel, through what we do in our organization. Give encouragement to all our young people who are under the auspices of this organization, hopefully with their youthful enthusiasm, they can spread Your love to this world.
God the Father, we present all of this to Your presence, for the sake of Jesus Christ, Your Son, our Lord, and Mediator, who is united with You and the Holy Spirit, lives, and reigns, now and for all time. Amen.

And shed Your love in ev'ry heart.
To our weak flesh, Your strength supply;
Unfailing courage from on high,
Unfailing courage from on high.

To know the Father and the Son,
And hold with firm, unchanging faith,
That You art Spirit of Them both,

And Holy Spirit, with Them One;
And may the Son on us bestow
The gifts that from the Spirit flow,

THE LITURGY OF THE WORD
First Reading (They were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak.)
A reading from the Acts of the Apostles (2:1-11)
When the time for Pentecost was fulfilled, the apostles were all in one place together. And suddenly there came from the sky a noise like a strong driving wind, and it filled the entire house in which they were. Then there appeared to them tongues as of fire, which parted and came to rest on each one of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in different tongues, as the Spirit enabled them to proclaim.
Now there were devout Jews from every nation under heaven staying in Jerusalem. At this sound, they gathered in a large crowd, but they were confused because each one heard them speaking in his own language. They were astounded, and in amazement they asked, “Are not all these people who are speaking Galileans? Then how does each of us hear them in his native language? We are Parthians, Medes, and Elamites, inhabitants of Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia, Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the districts of Libya near Cyrene, as well as travelers from Rome, both Jews and converts to Judaism, Cretans and Arabs, yet we hear them speaking in our own tongues of the mighty acts of God.”
The Word of the Lord.
All : Thanks be to God.
Responsorial Psalm (104:1, 24, 29-30, 31, 34)
All : Lord, send out your Spirit, and renew the face of the earth. (Cf. Ps 104:30)
Bless the Lord, O my soul! O Lord, my God, you are great indeed!
How manifold are your works, O Lord! the earth is full of your creatures.
All : Lord, send out your Spirit, and renew the face of the earth.
If you take away their breath, they perish and return to their dust. When you send forth your spirit, they are created, and you renew the face of the earth.
All : Lord, send out your Spirit, and renew the face of the earth.
May the glory of the Lord endure forever; may the Lord be glad in his works! Pleasing to him be my theme; I will be glad in the Lord.
All : Lord, send out your Spirit, and renew the face of the earth.
Second Reading (In one Spirit we were all baptized into one body.)
A reading from the first Letter of Saint Paul to the Corinthians (12:3b-7, 12-13)
Brothers and sisters: No one can say, “Jesus is Lord,” except by the Holy Spirit.
There are different kinds of spiritual gifts but the same Spirit; there are different forms of service but the same Lord; there are different workings but the same God who produces all of them in everyone. To each individual the manifestation of the Spirit is given for some benefit.
As a body is one though it has many parts, and all the parts of the body, though many, are one body, so also Christ. For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, slaves or free persons, and we were all given to drink of one Spirit.
The Word of the Lord.
All : Thanks be to God.
SEQUENCE
All : Come, Holy Spirit, come!
And from your celestial home
Shed a ray of light divine!
Come, Father of the poor!
Come, source of all our store!
Come, within our bosoms shine.
You, of comforters the best;
You, the soul’s most welcome guest;
Sweet refreshment here below;
In our labor, rest most sweet;
Grateful coolness in the heat;
Solace in the midst of woe.
O most blessed Light divine,
Shine within these hearts of yours,
And our inmost being fill!
Where you are not, we have naught,
Nothing good in deed or thought,
Nothing free from taint of ill.
Heal our wounds, our strength renew;
On our dryness pour your dew;
Wash the stains of guilt away:
Bend the stubborn heart and will;
Melt the frozen, warm the chill;
Guide the steps that go astray.
On the faithful, who adore
And confess you, evermore
In your sevenfold gift descend;
Give them virtue’s sure reward;
Give them your salvation, Lord;
Give them joys that never end.
Amen. Alleluia.
Gospel Acclamation
Come Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful. Enkindle in them the fire of your love,
Alleluia!
Come, Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of the faithful and kindle in them the fire of your love.
Come Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful. Enkindle in them the fire of your love,
Alleluia!
Gospel
(As the Father sent me, so I send you: Receive the Holy Spirit.)
Priest : The Lord be with you.
All: And with your spirit.
Priest: ✠ A reading from the holy Gospel according to John (20:19-23)
All : ✠ Glory to you, O Lord.
On the evening of that first day of the week, when the doors were locked, where the disciples were, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in their midst and said to them, “Peace be with you.” When he had said this, he showed them his hands and his side. The disciples rejoiced when they saw the Lord. Jesus said to them again, “Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, so I send you.” And when he had said this, he breathed on them and said to them, “Receive the Holy Spirit. Whose sins you forgive are forgiven them, and whose sins you retain are retained.”
Priest: The Gospel of the Lord.
All : Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.
(Homily)
PROFESSION OF FAITH
All : 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,
(At the words that follow up to and including and became man, 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.
First Apostolic Promise (See separate sheet)

- Blessed are You O Lord, God of creation
Thro’ Your goodness we have our life to offer.
Priest: Pray, brethren (brothers and sisters),
that my sacrifice and yours
may be acceptable to God,
the almighty Father.
All: May the Lord accept the sacrifice at your hands
for the praise and glory of his name,
for our good
and the good of all his holy Church.
PRAYER OVER THE OFFERINGS
Priest: Let us pray. (pause)
Grant, we pray, O Lord,
that, as promised by your Son,
the Holy Spirit may reveal to us more abundantly
the hidden mystery of this sacrifice
and graciously lead us into all truth.
Through Christ our Lord.

Priest: The Lord be with you.
All: And with your spirit.
Priest: Lift up your hearts.
All: We lift them up to the Lord.
Priest: Let us give thanks to the Lord our God.
All: It is right and just.
PREFACE OF PENTECOST
(The Mystery of Pentecost.)
Priest: It is truly right and just, our duty and our salvation,
always and everywhere to give you thanks,
Lord, holy Father, almighty and eternal God.
For, bringing your Paschal Mystery to completion,
you bestowed the Holy Spirit today
on those you made your adopted children
by uniting them to your Only Begotten Son.
This same Spirit, as the Church came to birth,
opened to all peoples the knowledge of God
and brought together the many languages of the earth
in profession of the one faith.
Therefore, overcome with paschal joy,
every land, every people exults in your praise
and even the heavenly Powers, with the angelic hosts,
sing together the unending hymn of your glory,
as they acclaim:
Holy, Holy, Holy Sanctus (Missa de Angelis)
All: Sanctus, Sanctus, Sanctus Dominus Deus Sabaoth.
Pleni sunt caeli et terra gloria tua.
Hosanna in excelsis.
Benedictus qui venit in nomine Domini.
Hosanna in excelsis.
All: Holy, Holy, Holy Lord God of hosts.
Heaven and earth are full of your glory.
Hosanna in the highest.
Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.
Hosanna in the highest.
Priest: You are indeed Holy, O Lord,
the fount of all holiness.
Make holy, therefore, these gifts, we pray,
by sending down your Spirit upon them like the dewfall,
so that they may become for us
the Body and + Blood of our Lord Jesus Christ.
At the time he was betrayed
and entered willingly into his Passion,
he took bread and, giving thanks, broke it,
and gave it to his disciples, saying:
TAKE THIS, ALL OF YOU, AND EAT OF IT,
FOR THIS IS MY BODY,
WHICH WILL BE GIVEN UP FOR YOU.
In a similar way, when supper was ended,
he took the chalice
and, once more giving thanks,
he gave it to his disciples, saying:
TAKE THIS, ALL OF YOU, AND DRINK FROM IT,
FOR THIS IS THE CHALICE OF MY BLOOD,
THE BLOOD OF THE NEW AND ETERNAL COVENANT,
WHICH WILL BE POURED OUT FOR YOU AND FOR MANY
FOR THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS.
DO THIS IN MEMORY OF ME.
Priest: The mystery of faith.
The Mystery of Faith
All: We proclaim your Death, O Lord,
and profess your Resurrection
until you come again.
Priest: Therefore, as we celebrate
the memorial of his Death and Resurrection,
we offer you, Lord,
the Bread of life and the Chalice of salvation,
giving thanks that you have held us worthy
to be in your presence and minister to you.
Humbly we pray
that, partaking of the Body and Blood of Christ,
we may be gathered into one by the Holy Spirit.
Remember, Lord, your Church,
spread throughout the world,
and bring her to the fullness of charity,
together with Francis our Pope
and Stephen our Bishop, [and his assistant Bishops]
and all the clergy.
Remember also our brothers and sisters
who have fallen asleep in the hope of the resurrection,
and all who have died in your mercy:
welcome them into the light of your face.
Have mercy on us all, we pray,
that with the Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of God,
with blessed Joseph, her Spouse
with the blessed Apostles,
and all the Saints who have pleased you throughout the ages,
we may merit to be coheirs to eternal life,
and may praise and glorify you
through your Son, Jesus Christ.
Through him, and with him, and in him,
O God, almighty Father,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
all glory and honor is yours,
for ever and ever.
All: Amen.
THE COMMUNION RITE

All: For the kingdom,
the power and the glory are yours
now and for ever.

Lamb of God, you take away the sins of the world,
have mercy on us.
Lamb of God, you take away the sins of the world,
grant us peace.
Priest: Behold the Lamb of God,
behold him who takes away the sins of the world.
Blessed are those called to the supper of the Lamb.
All: Lord, I am not worthy
that you should enter under my roof,
but only say the word
and my soul shall be healed.

Fill the earth, bring it to birth and blow where you will.
Blow, blow, blow till I be, but breath of the spirit blowing in me.

4. Spirit of God, every man's heart is lonely, watching and waiting and hungry until.
Spirit of God, we long that you only.
