O
Lord,
make
haste
to

me.
Glory
be

Father
and

Holy
Spirit,
as
it

in
the
beginning,
is

and
sufferings

Amen.

From
a
sermon
by
Saint
Augustine,
Bishop.
The
day
has
been
made
holy
by
the
passion
of
the
Blessed
Apostles
Peter
and
Paul.
We
are
therefore
not
talking
about
some
obscure
martyrs,
for
their
voice
has
gone
forth
to
all
the
world,
and
to
the
ends
of
the
earth
their
message.
These
martyrs
realized
what
they
taught.
They
pursued
justice,
they
confessed
the
truth,
they
died
for
it.
Saint
Peter,
the
first
of
the
apostles,
and
a
fervent
lover
of
Christ,
merited
to
hear
these
words.
I
say
to
you
that
you
are
Peter.
For
he
said,
You
are
the
Christ,
the
Son
of
the
Living
God.
Then
Christ
said,
And
I
say
to
you
that
you
are
Peter,
and
on
this
rock
I
will
build
my
church.
On
this
rock
I
will
build
the
faith
that
you
now
confess,
and
on
your
words
you
are
the
Christ,
the
Son
of
the
Living
God,
I
will
build
my
church,
for
you
are
Peter,
and
the
name
Peter
comes
from
Petra,
the
word
for
rock,
and
not
vice
versa.
Peter
comes,
therefore,
from
Petra,
just
as
Christian
comes
from
Christ.
As
you
are
aware,
Jesus
chose
his
disciples
before
his
passion
and
called
them
apostles,
and
among
these
almost
everywhere
Peter
alone
deserved
to
represent
the
entire
church,
and
because
of
that
role
which
he
alone
had,
he
merited
to
hear
the
words,
To
you
I
shall
give
the
keys
of
the
kingdom
of
heaven.
SPEAKER_00
2:08
For
it
was
not
one
man
who
received
the
keys,
but
the
entire
church
considered
as
one.
Now,
insofar
as
he
represented
the
unity
and
universality
of
the
church,
Peter's
preeminence
is
clear
from
the
words,
To
you
I
give,
for
what
was
given
was
given
to
all.
For
the
fact
that
it
was
the
church
that
received
the
keys
of
the
kingdom
of
God
is
clear
from
what
the
Lord
says
elsewhere
to
all
the
apostles,
receive
the
Holy
Spirit,
adding
immediately,
Whose
sins
you
forgive,
they
are
forgiven,
and
whose
sins
you
retain,
they
are
retained.
SPEAKER_00
2:43
Rightly
then
did
the
Lord
after
his
resurrection
entrust
Peter
with
the
feeding
of
his
sheep.
Yet
he
was
not
the
only
disciple
to
merit
the
feeding
of
the
Lord's
sheep,
but
Christ,
in
speaking
to
only
one,
suggests
the
unity
of
all.
And
so
he
speaks
to
Peter,
because
Peter
is
first
among
the
apostles.
Therefore
do
not
be
disheartened,
Peter.
Reply
once,
reply
twice,
reply
a
third
time.
The
triple
confession
of
your
love
is
to
regain
what
was
lost
three
times
by
your
fear.
You
must
loose
three
times
what
you
bound
three
times.
Untie
by
love
that
which
your
fear
bound.
Once
and
again
and
a
third
time
did
the
Lord
entrust
his
sheep
to
Peter.
SPEAKER_00
3:28
Both
apostles
share
the
same
feast
day,
for
these
two
were
one,
and
even
though
they
suffered
on
different
days,
they
were
as
one.
Peter
went
first
and
Paul
followed,
and
so
we
celebrate
this
day
made
holy
for
us
by
the
apostles'
blood.
Let
us
embrace
what
they
believed
their
life,
their
labors,
their
sufferings,
their
preaching,
and
their
confession
of
faith.
Blessed
Apostle
Paul,
preacher
of
the
truth
and
teacher
of
the
Gentiles,
you
are
truly
worthy
of
praise.
Through
you,
all
peoples
have
come
to
know
God's
grace.
You
are
truly
worthy
of
praise.
SPEAKER_00
4:08
Grant
we
pray,
O
Lord,
our
God,
that
we
may
be
sustained
by
the
intercession
of
the
blessed
Apostles
Peter
and
Paul,
that,
as
through
them
you
gave
your
church
the
foundations
of
her
heavenly
office,
so
through
them
you
may
help
her
to
eternal
salvation.
Through
our
Lord
Jesus
Christ,
your
Son,
who
lives
and
reigns
with
you
in
the
unity
of
the
Holy
Spirit,
God
forever
and
ever.
Amen.
O
God,
come
to
my
assistance.
O
Lord,
make
haste
to
help
me.
Glory
be
to
the
Father,
and
to
the
Son,
and
to
the
Holy
Spirit,
as
it
was
in
the
beginning,
is
now
and
ever
shall
be.
World
without
end.
Amen.
All
that
I
have,
and
all
that
I
am,
I
give
to
your
hands,
Jesus,
through
the
heart
of
Mary,
your
blessed
mother.
Amen.
Sacred
heart
of
Jesus,
have
mercy
on
us.
Our
Lady
of
Guadalupe,
pray
for
us.
In
the
name
of
the
Father,
and
of
the
Son,
and
of
the
Holy
Spirit.
Amen.
