About today

Andrew, brother of Simon Peter, was a disciple of John the Baptist before he followed Jesus and brought Peter to him. The Gospels show him introducing others to the Lord: the boy with loaves, the Greeks who wished to see Jesus. His feast is 30 November, at the door of Advent. The first called is still bringing others. Ask today for a vocation of bringing people, not collecting them, and for the humility of the one who is named as someone’s brother.

Hear my voice, O Lord, with which I have cried out to you. Have mercy on me, and hear me. My heart has spoken to you; my face has sought you. I yearn for your face, O Lord. Do not turn your face away from me. In your wrath, do not turn aside from your servant. Be my helper. Do not abandon me, and do not despise me, O God, my Savior.

Canticle

And Mary said: “My soul magnifies the Lord. And my spirit leaps for joy in God my Savior. For he has looked with favor on the humility of his handmaid. For behold, from this time, all generations shall call me blessed. For he who is great has done great things for me, and holy is his name. And his mercy is from generation to generations for those who fear him. He has accomplished powerful deeds with his arm. He has scattered the arrogant in the intentions of their heart. He has deposed the powerful from their seat, and he has exalted the humble. He has filled the hungry with good things, and the rich he has sent away empty. He has taken up his servant Israel, mindful of his mercy, just as he spoke to our fathers: to Abraham and to his offspring forever.”

Glory Be

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

Antiphon

The humble are lifted; keep us small enough for joy.
