Missa "Venite, benedicti"
Station at the St. Laurence-Without-the-Walls. Today we honor St. Lawrence, the Cross-bearer of the Roman Church, to express our gratitude for the favor shown by him to the catechumens in bringing them to holy Baptism.
The Gospel gives the account of the third appearance of the risen Savior to the Apostles. On the shores of Lake Tiberias St. John, the virgin soul among the Apostles, sees him first, but Peter, the most ardent and the most impetuous, in the vigor of his faith throws himself into the water and is the first to reach the divine Master, whilst the others slowly follow in the boat. The fishes brought by St. Peter at the command of Jesus are interpreted to represent the neophytes baptized on Holy Saturday.
Throughout the paschal season the Church displays a great veneration for the martyrs, of which the first evidence is seen today at the tomb of St. Lawrence. The reason of this devotion is that the martyrs have a special claim to the glory of the Resurrection, since they have participated more closely than others in the ignominy of the Cross.

Léctio Áctuum Apostolórum. In diébus illis: Apériens Petrus os suum, dixit: Viri Israëlítæ, et qui timétis Deum, audíte. Deus Abraham, et Deus Isaac, et Deus Jacob, Deus patrum nostrórum glorificávit Fílium suum Jesum, quem vos quidem tradidístis, et negástis ante fáciem Piláti, judicánte illo dimítti. Vos autem sanctum, et justum negástis, et petístis virum homicídam donári vobis: auctórem vero vitæ interfecístis, quem Deus suscitávit a mór-tuis, cujus nos testes sumus. et, nunc, fratres, scio quia per ignorántiam fecístis, sicut et príncipes vestri. Deus autem, quæ prænuntiávit per os óm-nium Prophetárum, pati Christum suum, sic implévit. Pœnitémini ígitur et convertímini, ut deleántur peccáta vestra.
Deo Gratias.

Lesson from the Acts of the Apostles.
In those days, Peter opening his mouth, said, Ye men of Isræl, and ye that fear God, hear. The God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, the God of our fathers hath glorified His Son Jesus, Whom you indeed delivered up and denied before the face of Pilate, when he judged he should be released. But you denied the Holy One and the Just, and desired a murderer to be granted unto you. But the Author of life you killed, Whom God hath raised from the dead, of which we are witnesses. And now, brethren, I know that you did it through ignorance, as did also your rulers. But those things which God before had showed by the mouth of all the prophets, that His Christ should suffer, He hath so fulfilled. Repent therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out.
Thanks be to God.

R.Gloria tibi, Domine.
In illo témpore: Manifestávit se íterum Jesus discípulis ad mare Tiberíadis. Manifestávit autem sic. Erant simul Simon Petrus, et Thomas, qui dícitur Dídymus, et Nathánaël, qui erat a Cana Galilææ, et fílii Zebedæi, et álii ex discípulis ejus duo. Dicit eis Simon Petrus: Vado piscári. Dicunt ei: Venímus et nos tecum. Et exiérunt, et ascendérunt in navim: et illa nocte nihil prendidérunt. Mane autem facto, stetit Jesus in líttore: non tamen cognovérunt discípuli quia Jesus est. Dixit ergo eis Jesus: "Púeri, numquid pulmentárium habétis?" Respondérunt el: Non. Dicit eis: "Míttite in déxteram navígii rete: et inveniétis. Misérunt ergo: et jam non valébant illud tráhere præ multitúdine píscium." Dixit ergo discípulus ille, quem diligébat Jesus, Petro: Dóminus est. Simon Petrus cum audísset quia Dóminus est, túnica succínxit se (erat enim nudus) et misit se in mare. Alii autem discípuli navigio venérunt: (non enim longe erant a terra, sed quasi cúbitis ducéntis), trahéntes rete píscium.Ut ergo descendérunt in terram, vidérunt prunas pósitas, et piscem superpósitum, et panem. Dicit eis Jesus: "Afférte de píscibus, quos prendidístis nunc." Ascéndit Simon Petrus, et traxit rete in terram, plenum magnis píscibus centum quinquagínta tribus. Et cum tanti essent, non est scissum rete. Dicit eis Jesus: "Veníte, prandéte." Et nemo audébat discumbéntium interrogáre eum: Tu quis es? sciéntes, quia Dóminus est. Et venit Jesus, et áccipit panem, et date eis, et piscem simíliter. Hoc jam tértio manifestátus est Jesus discípulis suis, cum resurrexísset a mórtuis.
Laus tibi Christe.

R. And with thy spirit.
The continuation of the holy Gospel according to John.
R. Glory to Thee, O Lord
At that time, Jesus showed Himself again to His disciples at the sea of Tiberias. And He showed Himself after this manner. There were together Simon Peter, and Thomas, who is called Didymus, and Nathanæl, who was of Cana in Galilee, and the sons of Zebedee and two others of His disciples. Simon Peter saith to them, I go fishing. They say to him, We also come with thee. And they went forth, and entered into the ship: and that night they caught nothing. But when the morning was come, Jesus stood on the shore; yet the disciples knew not that it was Jesus. Jesus therefore said to them, "Children, have you any meat?" They answered Him: No. He saith to them, "Cast the net on the right side of the ship, and you shall find." They cast therefore, and now they were not able to draw it, for the multitude of fishes. That disciple therefore whom Jesus loved, said to Peter, it is the Lord. Simon Peter, when he heard that it was the Lord, girt his coat about him (for he was naked) and cast himself into the sea. But the other disciples came in the ship (for they were not far from the land, but as it were two hundred cubits) dragging the net with fishes. As soon then as they came to land, they saw hot coals lying, and a fish laid thereon, and bread. Jesus saith to them, "Bring hither of the fishes which you now have caught." Simon Peter went up, and drew the net to land, full of great fishes, one hundred and fifty-three. And although there were so many, the net was not broken. Jesus saith to them, "Come, and dine." And none of them who were at meat durst ask Him, Who art Thou? knowing that it was the Lord. And Jesus cometh and taketh bread, and giveth them, and fish in like manner. This is now the third time that Jesus was manifested to His disciples, after He was risen from the dead.
Praise be to Christ

Ipse enim verus est Agnus qui ábstulit peccáta mundi. Qui mortem nostram moriéndo destrúxit, et vitam resurgéndo reparávit. Et ídeo cum Angelis et Archángelis, cum Thronis et Dóminatiónibus, cumque omni milítia cæléstis exércitus, hymnum glóriæ tuæ cánimus sine fine dicentes:

It is truly meet and just, right and for our salvation, at all times to praise Thee, O Lord, but more gloriously especially at this time above others when Christ our Pasch was sacrificed. For He is the true Lamb Who hath taken away the sins of the world: Who by dying hath destroyed our death: and by rising again hath restored us to life. And therefore with Angels and Archangels, with Thrones and Dominations, and with all the hosts of the heavenly army, we sing the hymn of Thy glory, evermore saying:
HOLY, HOLY, HOLY...
