Celebrant: In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
All: Amen
Celebrant: Peace be with you
All: And with your spirit
A brief introduction to the mass follows
Then follows the Penitential Act, to which the Celebrant invites the faithful, saying:
Brothers and sisters, let us acknowledge our sins,
and so prepare ourselves to celebrate the sacred mysteries.
A brief pause for silence follows. Then all recite together the formula of general confession:
I confess to almighty God and to you, my brothers and sisters,
that I have greatly sinned, in my thoughts and in my words,
in what I have done and in what I have failed to do,
through my fault, through my fault, through my most grievous fault;
therefore I ask blessed Mary ever-Virgin,
all the Angels and Saints, and you, my brothers and sisters,
to pray for me to the Lord our God.
The absolution of the Celebrant follows:
May almighty God have mercy on us,
forgive us our sins,
and bring us to everlasting life.
All: Amen

Let us pray:
O God, who out of the abundance of your untold grace alone
choose to set your servant and priest Ivan Pereira
over your Church on this day,
grant that he may carry out worthily the office of Bishop
and, under your governance in all things,
he may direct by word and example
the people entrusted to his care.
Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit
one God, forever and ever.
All: Amen

 LITURGY OF THR WORD
First Reading: Isaiah 61: 1-3a
A reading from the book of Prophet Isaiah
The spirit of the Lord God is upon me,
because the Lord has anointed me;
he has sent me to bring good news to the oppressed,
to bind up the broken-hearted,
to proclaim liberty to the captives,
and release to the prisoners;
to proclaim the year of the Lord's favour,
and the day of vengeance of our God;
to comfort all who mourn;
to provide for those who mourn in Zion
to give them a garland instead of ashes,
the oil of gladness instead of mourning,
the mantle of praise instead of a faint spirit.
This is the word of Lord.
All : Thanks be to God.

Responsorial Hymn
I, the Lord of sea and sky. I have heard my people cry.
All who dwell in dark and sin, my hand will save.
I who made the stars of night.
I will make their darkness bright.
Who will bear my light to them? Who shall I send?
Here I am, Lord, is it I, Lord?
I have heard you calling in the night,
I will go, Lord, if you lead me,
I will hold your people in my heart.
I, the Lord of snow and rain. I have borne my people's pain.
I have wept for love of them, they turn away.
I will break their hearts of stone.
Give them hearts For love alone.
I will speak my word to them, whom shall I send?

Second Reading: 1 Corinthians 12: 12-26

Gospel: Luke 4: 14-21 Fr. Savio sfx
Priest : The Lord be with you. All : And with your spirit.
A reading from the Holy Gospel according to St. Luke
Then Jesus, filled with the power of the Spirit, returned to Galilee, and a report about
him spread through all the surrounding country. He began to teach in their
synagogues and was praised by everyone.
When he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up, he went to the
synagogue on the sabbath day, as was his custom. He stood up to read, and the
scroll of the prophet Isaiah was given to him. He unrolled the scroll and found
the place where it was written:
'The Spirit of the Lord is upon me,
because he has anointed me to bring good news to the poor.
He has sent me to proclaim release to the captives
and recovery of sight to the blind, to let the oppressed go free,
to proclaim the year of the Lord's favour.'
And he rolled up the scroll, gave it back to the attendant, and sat down. The
eyes of all in the synagogue were fixed on him. Then he began to say to them,
'Today this scripture has been fulfilled in your hearing.'
This is the Gospel of the Lord
All : Praise to you Lord, Jesus Christ.

The principal ordaining Bishop questions him, saying:

Principal Consecrator: Have you the Apostolic mandate?

Assisting Priest: We have.

Principal Consecrator: Let it be read. Commentary

Then, with everyone seated, the mandate is read. Once it has been read in full, all assent to the Bishop's election,

After the homily, the elect rises alone and stands before the principal ordaining Bishop, who examines him in
these words:

Principal Consecrator: An age-old custom of the Fathers decrees that a Bishop-

elect is to be questioned before the people on his resolve to uphold the faith
and to discharge his duties faithfully.
My brother, are you resolved by the grace of the Holy Spirit to discharge to the
end of your life the office the apostles entrusted to us, which we now pass on to
you by laying on of hands?
Bishop-elect: I am.
Principal Consecrator: Are you resolved to be faithful and constant in
proclaiming the Gospel of Christ?
Bishop-elect:I am.

Principal Consecrator: Are you resolved to maintain the deposit of faith, entire
and incorrupt, as handed down by the apostles and professed by the Church
everywhere and at all times?
Bishop-elect: I am.
Episcopal Ordination 11
Principal Consecrator: Are you resolved to build up the Church as the body of
Christ and to remain united to it within the order of bishops under the authority
of the successor of the apostle Peter?
Bishop-elect: I am.

Principal Consecrator: Are you resolved to be faithful in your obedience to the

successor of the apostle Peter?
Bishop-elect: I am.

Principal Consecrator: Are you resolved as a devoted father to sustain the people
of God and to guide them in the way of salvation in cooperation with the priests
and deacons who share your ministry?
Bishop-elect: I am.

Principal Consecrator: Are you resolved to show kindness and compassion in the
name of the Lord to the poor and to strangers and to all who are in need?

who stray and to gather them into the fold of the Lord?

Principal Consecrator: Are you resolved to pray for the people of God without
ceasing, and to carry out the duties of one who has the fullness of the priesthood
so as to afford no grounds for reproach?

fulfillment.

Episcopal Ordination 14
The elect rises and approaches the principal ordaining Bishop, who stands before his throne wearing his mitre; and
the elect genuflects before him.

The Principal Cosecrator lays hands upon the head of the elect, saying nothing. Then, approaching in succession, all
of the Bishops impose hands upon the elect, saying nothing.

Now after the imposition of hands, the Bishops remain round about the principal ordaining Bishop until the Prayer
of Ordination is finished, yet in such a way that the faithful may easily follow the proceedings

Then the Principal Cosecrator receives the book of the Gospels from one of the deacons; and he places it, open,
above the head of the elect. Two deacons, standing at the elect's right and left, hold the book of the Gospels above his
head until the Prayer of Ordination is finished.

With the elect kneeling before him, the Principal Cosecrator puts off his mitre; and standing with the other ordaining
Bishops, who have likewise removed their mitres, he extends his hands and offers the Prayer of Ordination:

God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,

Father of mercies and God of all consolation,
you dwell in heaven, yet look with compassion, on all that is humble.
You know all things before they come to be;
by your gracious word you have established the plan of your Church.
From the beginning you chose the descendants of Abraham
to be your holy nation. You established rulers and priests,
and did not leave your sanctuary without ministries to serve you.
From the creation of the world you have been pleased
to be glorified by those whom you have chosen.
All the consecrating bishops recite the following part of the prayer, with hands joined:
So now pour out upon this chosen one that power, which is from you,
the governing Spirit whom you gave to your beloved Son, Jesus Christ,
the Spirit given by him to the holy apostles,
who founded the Church in every place to be your temple
for the unceasing glory and praise of your name.
Then the principal consecrator continues alone:
Father, you know all hearts.
You have chosen your servant for the office of bishop.
May he be a shepherd to your holy flock,
and a high priest blameless in your sight,

Episcopal Ordination 15
 ministering to you night and day;
may he always gain the blessing of your favour
and offer the gifts of your holy Church.
Through the Spirit who gives the grace of high priesthood
grant him the power to forgive sins as you have commanded,
to assign ministries as you have decreed,
and to loose every bond by the authority,
which you gave to your apostles.

May he be pleasing to you

by his gentleness and purity of heart,
presenting a fragrant offering to you,
through Jesus Christ, your Son,
through whom glory and power and honour are yours
with the Holy Spirit in your holy Church, now and for ever.
ll :Amen

After the prayer of consecration, the deacons remove the book of the Gospels, which they have been holding above the
head of the new bishops. One of them holds the book until it is given to the bishop. The principal consecrator and the

Singing Alleluia.
1. Yahweh's people, dance for joy.
O come before the Lord.
And play for Him on glad tambourines,
And let your trumpet sound.
2. Rise, O Children, from your sleep;
Your saviour now has come
He has turned your sorrow to joy,
And filled your soul with song.
3. Glad my soul, for I have seen
The glory of the Lord
The trumpet sounds; the dead shall be raised.
I know my Saviour lives.

The Priest, standing at the altar, takes the paten with the bread and holds it slightly raised above the
altar with both hands, saying in a low voice:
Blessed are you, Lord God of all creation, for through your goodness we have
received the bread we offer you: fruit of the earth and work of human hands, it will
become for us the bread of life.
Then he places the paten with the bread on the corporal.
The Deacon, or the Priest, pours wine and a little water into the chalice, saying quietly:
By the mystery of this water and wine
may we come to share in the divinity of Christ
who humbled himself to share in our humanity.
The Celebrant then takes the chalice and holds it slightly raised above the altar with both hands, saying in a low
voice:
Blessed are you, Lord God of all creation, for through your goodness we have
received the wine we offer you: fruit of the vine and work of human hands
it will become our spiritual drink.
Then he places the chalice on the corporal.
After this, the Celebrant, bowing profoundly, says quietly:
With humble spirit and contrite heart may we be accepted by you, O Lord,
and may our sacrifice in your sight this day be pleasing to you, Lord God.

The celebrant now incenses the offerings, the cross, and the altar. A Deacon or other minister then incenses the
Priest and the people.
Then the Celebrant, standing at the side of the altar, washes his hands, saying quietly:
Wash me, O Lord, from my iniquity and cleanse me from my sin.
Standing at the middle of the altar, facing the people, extending and then joining his hands, he says:

EUCHARISTIC PRAYER VI
Church on the Path of Unity

V. The Lord be with you.

R. And with your spirit.
V. Lift up your hearts.
R. We lift them up to the Lord.
V. Let us give thanks to the Lord our God.
R. It is right and just.
It is truly right and just to give you thanks
and raise to you a hymn of glory and praise,
O Lord, Father of infinite goodness.
For by the word of your Son's Gospel
you have brought together one Church
from every people, tongue, and nation,
and, having filled her with life
by the power of your Spirit,
you never cease through her
to gather the whole human race into one.
Manifesting the covenant of your love,
she dispenses without ceasing
the blessed hope of your Kingdom
and shines bright as the sign of your faithfulness,
which in Christ Jesus our Lord
you promised would last for eternity.
And so, with all the Powers of heaven,
we worship you constantly on earth,
while, with all the Church,
as one voice we acclaim:

The Priest, with hands extended, says:

C: You are indeed Holy and to be glorified, O God,

who love the human race
and who always walk with us on the journey of life.
Blessed indeed is your Son, present in our midst
when we are gathered by his love,
and when, as once for the disciples, so now for us,
he opens the Scriptures and breaks the bread.
He joins his hands and, holding them extended over the offerings, says:

CC:Therefore, Father most merciful

we ask that you send forth your Holy Spirit
to sanctify these gifts of bread and wine,

He joins his hands and makes the Sign of the Cross once over the bread and chalice together, saying:

that they may become for us

the Body and + Blood
of our Lord Jesus Christ.

On the day before he was to suffer,

on the night of the Last Supper,
he took bread and said the blessing,
broke the bread and gave it to his disciples, saying:
He bows slightly.

TAKE THIS, ALL OF YOU, AND EAT OF IT,

FOR THIS IS MY BODY,
WHICH WILL BE GIVEN UP FOR YOU.
Episcopal Ordination 21
He shows the consecrated host to the people, places it again on the paten, and genuflects in adoration. After
this, he continues:
In a similar way, when supper was ended,
he took the chalice, gave you thanks
and gave the chalice to his disciples, saying:
He bows slightly
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.
He shows the chalice to the people, places it on the corporal, and genuflects in adoration. Then he says:

C: The mystery of faith.

Then the Celebrant, with hands extended, says:

CC: Therefore, holy Father, as we celebrate the memorial

of Christ your Son, our Saviour, whom you led
through his Passion and Death on the Cross
to the glory of the Resurrection,
and whom you have seated at your right hand,
we proclaim the work of your love until he comes again
and we offer you the Bread of life
and the Chalice of blessing.
Look with favor on the oblation of your Church,
in which we show forth the paschal Sacrifice of Christ
that has been handed on to us,
and grant that, by the power of the Spirit of your love,
we may be counted now and until the day of eternity
among the members of your Son,
in whose Body and Blood we have communion.
Episcopal Ordination 22
 C1. Lord, renew your Church which is in Jammu & Kashmir
by the light of the Gospel.
Strengthen the bond of unity
between the faithful and the pastors of your people,
together with Francis our Pope, Ivan Pereira our Bishop,
and the whole Order of Bishops,
that in a world torn by strife
your people may shine forth
as a prophetic sign of unity and concord.
C2. Remember our brothers and sisters (N. and N.),
who have fallen asleep in the peace of your Christ,
and all the dead, whose faith you alone have known.
Admit them to rejoice in the light of your face,
and in the resurrection give them the fullness of life.
C3. Grant also to us, when our earthly pilgrimage is done,
that we may come to an eternal dwelling place
and live with you for ever;
there, in communion with the Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of God,
Blessed Joseph, her Spouse, with the Apostles and Martyrs,
and with all the Saints, we shall praise and exalt you
through Jesus Christ, your Son.

He takes the chalice and the paten with the host and, raising both, he sings:

There shall be seasons refreshing,
Sent from the Savior above.
Showers of blessing,
Showers of blessing we need:
Mercy-drops round us are falling,
But for the showers we plead.
There shall be showers of blessing,
Precious reviving again;
Over the hills and the valleys,
Sound of abundance of rain.
There shall be showers of blessing;
Send them upon us, O Lord;
Grant to us now a refreshing,
Come, and now honor Thy Word.

Assisting Priest : Bow your heads and pray for blessing.
Bishop: O God, who care for your people with gentleness,
