Opening Song

“I Have Loved You” by Michael Joncas

I have loved you with an everlasting love, I have called you and you are mine; I have loved you with an everlasting love, I have called you and you are mine.

First Reading

Isaiah 43:1-7,19, Frida Luna ’23 & Carolina Ramirez ’23

Proclaimed in Spanish, translation to follow.

A reading from the book of the Prophet Isaiah.

But now, thus says the Lord, who created you, Jacob, and formed you, Israel: Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name: you are mine. When you pass through waters, I will be with you; through rivers, you shall not be swept away.

When you walk through fire, you shall not be burned, nor will flames consume you. For I, the Lord, am your God, the Holy One of Israel, your savior. I give Egypt as ransom for you, Ethiopia and Seba in exchange for you. Because you are precious in my eyes and honored, and I love you, I give people in return for you and nations in exchange for your life.

Fear not, for I am with you; from the east I will bring back your offspring, from the west I will gather you. I will say to the north: Give them up! And to the south: Do not hold them! Bring back my sons from afar, and my daughters from the ends of the earth: All who are called by my name I created for my glory; I formed them, made them. See, I am doing something new! Now it springs forth, do you not perceive it? In the wilderness I make a way, in the wasteland, rivers.

The Word of the Lord.

Response: “Thanks be to God.”

Responsorial Psalm

Psalm 104, Paulette Vazquez ’23

Response: “Lord, send out your Spirit, and renew the face of the earth.”

Second Reading

Philippians 1:3-11, Elizabeth Thom Cattell ’73

Response: “Thanks be to God.”

Gospel

John 17:20-26, Monsignor Richard Duncanson

Response: “Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.”

Homily

Fr. Emmanuel Ochigbo

Alma Mater

Set on a hill over valley royal Mountain and sea afar, Built by a love and devotion loyal, Stands Villa Montemar. Though years may pass, Other cares a’bringing, And you may not be near, Turn back our thoughts, Our hearts are singing to those memories dear. So sing to Villa Montemar, Where our hearts will be always; Sing once more to Our Lady of Peace Who deserves all our tribute and praise. With your shoulders back and heads up high And a bright gleam in your eye, Stand and cheer, loyal daughter, For your Alma Mater With a hail, hail, hail.

Ada B. Nesbit 1924
