Prayers of the People
He has told you, O mortal, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?

Responsive Reading
Leader: When Jesus saw the crowds, he went up the mountain; and after he sat down, his disciples
came to him. Then he began to speak, and taught them, saying:
People: “Blessed are the poor in spirit,
Leader: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.              
“Blessed are those who mourn,
People: for they will be comforted.                 
Leader: “Blessed are the meek,
People: for they will inherit the earth.             
Leader: “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
People: for they will be filled.
Leader: “Blessed are the merciful,
People:  for they will receive mercy.                
Leader: “Blessed are the pure in heart,
People: for they will see God.             
Leader: “Blessed are the peacemakers,
People: for they will be called children of God.                      
Leader: “Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake,
People: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.              
Leader: “Blessed are you when people revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against
you falsely on my account.
People: Rejoice and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven, for in the same way they
persecuted the prophets who were before you."
