EPISTLE

Lesson from the book of Exodus
Exod 23:20-23
Thus says the Lord God: See, I am sending My Angel before you, to guard you on the way and bring you to the place I have prepared. Be attentive to him and heed his voice. Do not rebel against him, for he will not forgive your sin. My authority resides in him. If you heed his voice and carry out all I tell you, I will be an enemy to your enemies and a foe to your foe, and My Angel will go before you.

GRADUAL

Ps 90:11-12
To His Angels God has given command about you, that they guard you in all your ways.
℣. Upon their hands they shall bear you up, lest you dash your foot against a stone. Alleluia, alleluia.
Ps 102:21
Bless the Lord all you His hosts, His ministers, who do His will. Alleluia.

GOSPEL

Continuation ☩ of the Holy Gospel according to Matthew
Matt 18:1-10
At that time, the disciples came to Jesus, saying, Who then is greatest in the kingdom of heaven? And Jesus called a little child to Him, set him in their midst, and said, Amen I say to you, unless you turn and become like little children, you will not enter into the kingdom of heaven. Whoever, therefore, humbles himself as this little child, he is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. And whoever receives one such little child for My sake, receives Me. But whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to sin, it were better for him to have a great millstone hung around his neck, and to be drowned in the depths of the sea. Woe to the world because of scandals! For it must needs be that scandals come, but woe to the man through whom scandal does come! And if your hand or your foot is an occasion of sin to you, cut it off and cast it from you! It is better for you to enter life maimed or lame, than, having two hands or two feet, to be cast into the everlasting fire. And if your eye is an occasion of sin to you, pluck it out and cast it from you! It is better for you to enter into life with one eye, than, having two eyes, to be cast into hell-fire. See that you do not despise one of these little ones; for I tell you, their Angels in heaven always behold the face of My Father in heaven.

OFFERTORY

Ps 102:20-21
Bless the Lord, all you His Angels, His ministers, who do His will, obeying His spoken word.

SECRET

Accept, O Lord, the gifts which we offer in honor of Your holy Angels, and mercifully grant that we may be freed from present perils by their perpetual protection and attain unto life everlasting.
Through our Lord…

PREFACE

Common
It is truly meet and just, and profitable unto salvation, that we should at all times, and in all places, give thanks to Thee, O Holy Lord, Father Almighty, eternal God, through Christ, our Lord. Through whom the Angels praise Thy Majesty, the Dominions adore it, the Powers are in awe. Which the heavens and the hosts of heaven together with the blessed Seraphim joyfully do magnify. And do Thou command that it be permitted us to join with them in confessing Thee, while we say with lowly praise:

COMMUNION

Dan 3:58
All you Angels of the Lord, bless the Lord: sing a hymn, and exalt Him above all forever.

POSTCOMMUNION

Rejoicing on the feast of Your holy Angels, O Lord, we have received the divine sacrament; we pray that we may ever be freed, by their protection, from the snares of the enemy and be preserved from all harm.
Through our Lord…
