Dear brothers and sisters, now that we have began our solemn vigil, let us listen with quiet hearts to the word of God. Let us meditate on how God in time past save his people and indeed the last days has sent us his son as our redeemer. Let us pray that our God may complete this pastoral work of salvation by the fullness of redemption.

I anticipated that Somehow there might be some special uh unknown invisible wisdom that might come to me to share with you what the meaning of this evening is about

first one from Old Testament, the Hebrew scriptures was about the creation, the myth of creation. Now mind you that when we say myth, it's not about something that is just made up. So the detail the story might be made up from the limit of human mind. Without such interpretation or description, we would not know of a true reality that exists behind the story or exist behind the myth. That's what myth is about. So we call it the myth of creation. And all cultures in the world that I know about do has some myths about how this universe came about. And it is from our Christian root that we borrow or reuse the Abrahamic myth of how God has created this world. How God has created us.

Look, we pray upon the face of your church and graciously and still fulfill the baptism. May this water received by the Holy Spirit, the grace of your only begotten son, so that human nature created in your image and wash from the sacment of baptism from all the squalor of the life of old may be found worthy to rise to the life of newborn children and the Holy Spirit.
May the power of the Holy Spirit, Lord, we pray, come down to your son into the fullness of this heart. So that all who have been buried with Christ by baptism into death may rise again to life with him who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God forever and ever. Amen.

My brothers and sisters, through the pastoral mystery, we have been buried with Christ in baptism so that we may walk with him in newness of life.
So now our journey has concluded.
I would like to ask all of the members of it community to renewal as our brothers and sisters here.
Do you renounce Satan? I do. And all his works and all his empty.
Do you believe in God the Father Almighty, creator of heaven and earth? Do you believe in Jesus Christ, God's only son, our Lord, who was born of the Virgin Mary, suffered death, and was buried, rose again, and is seated at the right hand of the father. You believe in the Holy Spirit, the Holy Catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting.
May God Jesus Christiven

You are to bear in the outpouring among us of the Holy Spirit who was sent by the Lord upon the apostles at Pentecost to be given by them and the baptized. Therefore, you also are to receive the promised power of the Holy Spirit so that Being more perfectly conformed to Christ, you may bear witness to the Lord's passion and resurrection and become active members of the church for the building up of the body of Christ in faith and

Pray to God the Almighty Father that he will graciously pour out the Holy Spirit on these candidates for confirmation to confirm them with his abundant gift and through his anointing confirm them more to Christ the son of God.

Sisters and brothers, pray that our offerings may become acceptable and pleasing to God our almighty father. May the Lord accept his sacrifice at our hands for the praise and glory of God's name for our good and good of all God's holy church. Accept we ask Lord the prayers of your people with the sacrificial offerings that what has be done in the pascal mysteries may by the working of your power bring us to the healing of eternity. Through Christ our Lord.
The Lord be with you. Lift up your hearts. Let us give thanks to the Lord our God. It is truly right and just our duty and our salvation at all times to acclaim you, oh Lord, but on this night above all to love you yet more gloriously when Christ Our Passover has been sacrificed. For he is the true lamb who has taken away the sins of the world. By dying he has destroyed our death and by rising restored our life. Therefore overcome with joy every land, every people ex
the unending hym of your glory.
You are indeed holy, oh Lord, and all you have created rightly gives you praise. For through your son, our Lord Jesus Christ, by the power and working of the Holy Spirit, you give life to all things and make them holy. And you never cease to g a people to yourself so that from the rising of the sun to its setting a pure sacrifice may be offered to your name. Therefore, we humbly implore you by the same spirit, graciously make holy these gifts we have brought to you for consecration that they may become the body and blood of your son, our Lord Jesus Christ. At first we celebrate this mystery. For on the night he was betrayed, he himself took bread, giving his thanks, he said the blessing, broke the bread, 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, he took the chalice and giving you thanks, he said the blessing and gave the chalice 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.
The mystery of faith.
Lord, as we celebrate the memorial of the second passion of your son, his wondous resurrection and ascension into heaven, and as we look forward to his second coming, we offer you in thanksgiving this holy and living sacrifice.
upon the oblation of your church and recognizing the sacrificial victim by you will reconcile us to yourself that we who are nourished by the body and blood of your son and filled with his holy spirit may become one body.
Listen
graciously to the family whom you have summoned before you this evening. Oh merciful and compassionate father. Gather to yourselves all your children scattered throughout the world. to our departed brothers and sisters and to all who were pleasing to you at their passing from this life. Give kind admittance to your kingdom. We hope to enjoy forever the fullness of your glory through Christ our Lord through whom you bestow on the world all that is good.
Through him with him and in him in the unity of the Holy Spirit. All glory and honor is yours, Almighty Father, forever and ever.
At the Savior's command and formed by divine teaching, we dare to say, Our Father, in heaven be thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us and lead us not into tempt us from evil. Deliver us Lord we pray from every evil graciously in our day. That by the help of your mercy, we may be always free from sin and safe from all distress as we await the blessed hope and the coming of our savior Jesus Christ.
