[Oratio] O God, Who willed to foreshow divinely that blessed Peter Chrysologus would be a~ great Doctor to rule and teach Your Church, grant, we beseech You, that we may~ be worthy to have him as our intercessor in heaven who on earth was a teacher of~ life. $Per Dominum [Lectio] Lesson from the second letter of St. Paul the Apostle to Timothy !2 Tim. 4:1-8 Beloved: I charge you, in the sight of God and Christ Jesus, Who will judge the living and the dead by His coming and by His kingdom, preach the word, be urgent in season, out of season; reprove, entreat, rebuke with all patience and teaching. For there will come a time when they will not endure the sound doctrine; but having itching ears, will heap up to themselves teachers according to their lusts, and they will turn away their hearing from the truth and turn aside rather to fables. But be watchful in all things, bear with tribulation patiently, work as a preacher of the Gospel, fulfill your ministry. As for me, I am already being poured out in sacrifice, and the time of my deliverance is at hand. I have fought the good fight, I have finished the course, I have kept the faith. For the rest, there is laid up for me a crown of justice, which the Lord, the just Judge, will give to me in that day; yet not to me only, but also to those who love His coming. [Graduale] !Ecclus 44:16 Behold a great priest, who in his days pleased God. !Ecclus 44:20 V. There was not found the like to him, who kept the law of the Most High.~ Alleluia, alleluia. !Ps 109:4 V. You are a priest forever, according to the order of Melchisedec. Alleluia. [Evangelium] Continuation + of the Holy Gospel according to Matthew !Matt 5:13-19 At that time Jesus said to His disciples: "You are the salt of the earth; but if~ the salt loses its strength, what shall it be salted with? It is no longer of~ any use but to be thrown out and trodden underfoot by men. You are the light of~ the world. A city set on a mountain cannot be hidden. Neither do men light a~ lamp and put it under the measure, but upon the lampstand, so as to give light~ to all in the house. Even so let your light shine before men, in order that they~ may see your good works and give glory to your Father in heaven. Do not think~ that I have come to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I have not come to destroy,~ but to fulfill. For amen I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, not one~ jot or one tittle shall be lost from the Law till all things have been~ accomplished. Therefore whoever does away with one of these least commandments,~ and so teaches men, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever~ carries them out and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of~ heaven. [Offertorium] !Ps 91:13 v. The just shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow up like the cedar of Libanus. [Secreta] May the loving prayer of blessed Peter, Your Confessor and Doctor, fail us never, O~ Lord; may it commend our offerings and ever secure for us Your forgiveness. $Per Dominum [Communio] !Matt 25:20-21 Master, you handed over to me five talents; behold, I have gained five others in~ addition. Well done, good and faithful servant; because you have been faithful~ over a few things, I will set you over many, enter into the joy of your master. [Postcommunio] So that your sacrificial rites may grant us salvation, we pray you, O Lord, that~ blessed Peter, Your Bishop and illustrious Doctor, may draw nigh as our~ intercessor. $Per Dominum [Commemoratio Oratio] !For St. Barbara, O God, Who among the other miracles of Your power have~ bestowed the victory of martyrdom even upon the weaker sex, graciously grant~ that we who commemorate the anniversary of the death of blessed Barbara, Your~ Virgin and Martyr, may come to You by the path of her example. $Per Dominum [Commemoratio Secreta] !For St. Barbara, V.
