Well, everybody knows the lector is supposed to CHANT: "The Gospel of Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, according to Saint John."

And the rest of us all respond (in chant): "Glory be to Thee, O Lord."

The really hard-core lector then chants the entire Gospel, concluding with, "The Gospel of the Lord."

Whereupon we chant, "Praise be to Thee, Lord Jesus Christ."

. . . at least that's the way hard-core "High Anglicans" (a/k/a Catholic Lite) do it.

Well, most Christians would call it the Gospel of John anyway.

And the call-response is the same even in the bogus ordo, minus the chant, of course.
