Almighty and Eternal God, who governs all things in heaven and on

EPISTLE (Rom. 12:6-16)
Brethren: We having different gifts, according to the grace that is
given us, either prophecy, to be used according to the rule of faith; or
ministry, in ministering; or he that teacheth, in doctrine; he that
exhorteth, in exhorting; he that giveth, with simplicity; he that
ruleth, with carefulness; he that sheweth mercy, with cheerfulness. Let
love be without dissimulation. Hating that which is evil, cleaving to
that which is good, loving one another with the charity of brotherhood:
with honour preventing one another. In carefulness not slothful. In
spirit fervent. Serving the Lord. Rejoicing in hope. Patient in
tribulation. Instant in prayer. Communicating to the necessities of the
saints. Pursuing hospitality. Bless them that persecute you: bless, and
curse not. Rejoice with them that rejoice: weep with them that weep.
Being of one mind one towards another. Not minding high things, but
consenting to the humble. Be not wise in your own conceits.

The Lord sent forth His word and healed them, and rescued them from destruction. V. Let them praise the Lord for His mercies, and His wondrous deeds towards the children of men.
Alleluia, alleluia! (V. Ps. 148:2)
Praise the Lord, all you His angels; praise Him, all you His hosts.
Alleluia!
GOSPEL (John 2:1-11)
At that time, there was a marriage in Cana
of Galilee: and the mother of Jesus was there. And Jesus also was
invited, and his disciples, to the marriage. And the wine failing, the
mother of Jesus saith to him: "They have no wine." And Jesus saith to
her: "Woman, what is that to me and to thee? My hour is not yet come."
His mother saith to the waiters: "Whatsoever he shall say to you, do
ye." Now there were set there six waterpots of stone, according to the
manner of the purifying of the Jews, containing two or three measures
apiece. Jesus saith to them: "Fill the waterpots with water." And they filled them up to the brim. And Jesus saith to them: "Draw out now and carry to the chief steward of the feast."
And they carried it. And when the chief steward had tasted the water
made wine and knew not whence it was, but the waiters knew who had drawn
the water: the chief steward calleth the bridegroom, And saith to him:
"Every man at first setteth forth good wine, and when men have well
drunk, then that which is worse. But thou hast kept the good wine until
now." This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana of Galilee and
manifested his glory. And his disciples believed in him.
OFFERTORY ANTIPHON (Ps. 65:1-2, 16)
Shout joyfully to God, all the earth; sing a psalm to the glory of
His name. Come and hear, all you who fear God, while I declare what He
has done for me, alleluia!
SECRET
O Lord, sanctify the gifts we offer You, and cleanse us from the stain of our sins. Through Our Lord . . .
COMMUNION ANTIPHON (John 2:7, 8, 9, 10-11)
The Lord said, "Fill the waterpots with water, and carry them to the
chief steward of the feast." When the chief steward had tasted the water
made wine, he calleth the bridegroom, and saith to him: "thou hast kept
the good wine until now." This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana
of Galilee and manifested his glory. And his disciples believed in him.
POSTCOMMUNION
O Lord, increase Your grace within us, so that this divine Sacrament
may bring us life and prepare us for the blessedness It promises.
Through Our Lord . . .

Did you apologize to Henry yet?
It would be immoral for me to apologize for being write about the Latin Edition of the Latin Liturgical Books which clearly state in Latin and in red rubrics (redundancy alert) that the Feast of the Baptism of the Lord is also the First Sunday in Ordinary Time, other conflicting ambiguities notwithstanding.
TJM,
FAJM WILL have the last word on this as on all topics, and he is ALWAYS right, no matter the subject or the truth...just so you understand.
Thank you, as I blush!
