Memorial
Entrance Antiphon I Sam
I
shall raise up for myself a priest who will be faithful. He will do what I have
in my mind and in my heart, says the Lord.
Opening Prayer
Father,
you made
Saint Ivo
a zealous
promoter of religious life,
a
brilliant teacher
and an
attentive pastor of his flock.
Grant
that, following his example,
we may
fulfill the duties entrusted to us on earth,
and so
deserve to join him in your heavenly kingdom.
We
ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
who lives
and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,
one God,
for ever and ever.
Prayer over the Gifts
Lord,
receive these gifts of your people,
which we
offer you on the feast of Saint Ivo.
Through
them may we experience your loving help
in which
we place all our hope.
We
ask this through Christ our Lord

Lord
our God,
you have
