  FIRST LECTURE OF THE MASS

  Acts 20:17-27

  17And from Mile'tus he sent to Ephesus and called to him the elders of the church. 18And when they came to him, he said to them: "You yourselves know how I lived among you all the time from the first day that I set foot in Asia, 19serving the Lord with all humility and with tears and with trials which befell me through the plots of the Jews; 20how I did not shrink from declaring to you anything that was profitable, and teaching you in public and from house to house, 21testifying both to Jews and to Greeks of repentance to God and of faith in our Lord Jesus Christ. 22And now, behold, I am going to Jerusalem, bound in the Spirit, not knowing what shall befall me there; 23except that the Holy Spirit testifies to me in every city that imprisonment and afflictions await me. 24But I do not account my life of any value nor as precious to myself, if only I may accomplish my course and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God. 25And now, behold, I know that all you among whom I have gone preaching the kingdom will see my face no more. 26Therefore I testify to you this day that I am innocent of the blood of all of you, 27for I did not shrink from declaring to you the whole counsel of God.

  RESPONSORIAL PSALM

  Psalms 68:10-11, 20-21

  9Rain in abundance, O God, thou didst shed abroad; thou didst restore thy heritage as it languished; 10thy flock found a dwelling in it; in thy goodness, O God, thou didst provide for the needy. 19Blessed be the Lord, who daily bears us up; God is our salvation. [Selah] 20Our God is a God of salvation; and to GOD, the Lord, belongs escape from death.

  GOSPEL OF THE MASS

  John 17:1-11

  1When Jesus had spoken these words, he lifted up his eyes to heaven and said, "Father, the hour has come; glorify thy Son that the Son may glorify thee, 2since thou hast given him power over all flesh, to give eternal life to all whom thou hast given him. 3And this is eternal life, that they know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom thou hast sent. 4I glorified thee on earth, having accomplished the work which thou gavest me to do; 5and now, Father, glorify thou me in thy own presence with the glory which I had with thee before the world was made. 6"I have manifested thy name to the men whom thou gavest me out of the world; thine they were, and thou gavest them to me, and they have kept thy word. 7Now they know that everything that thou hast given me is from thee; 8for I have given them the words which thou gavest me, and they have received them and know in truth that I came from thee; and they have believed that thou didst send me. 9I am praying for them; I am not praying for the world but for those whom thou hast given me, for they are thine; 10all mine are thine, and thine are mine, and I am glorified in them. 11And now I am no more in the world, but they are in the world, and I am coming to thee. Holy Father, keep them in thy name, which thou hast given me, that they may be one, even as we are one.

• TUESDAY SEVENTH WEEK OF EASTER 2026:

  Easter Time.

  FIRST LECTURE OF THE MASS

  Acts 20:17-27

  From Miletus Paul had the presbyters
  of the Church at Ephesus summoned.
  When they came to him, he addressed them,
  “You know how I lived among you
  the whole time from the day I first came to the province of Asia.
  I served the Lord with all humility
  and with the tears and trials that came to me
  because of the plots of the Jews,
  and I did not at all shrink from telling you
  what was for your benefit,
  or from teaching you in public or in your homes.
  I earnestly bore witness for both Jews and Greeks
  to repentance before God and to faith in our Lord Jesus.
  But now, compelled by the Spirit, I am going to Jerusalem.
  What will happen to me there I do not know,
  except that in one city after another
  the Holy Spirit has been warning me
  that imprisonment and hardships await me.
  Yet I consider life of no importance to me,
  if only I may finish my course
  and the ministry that I received from the Lord Jesus,
  to bear witness to the Gospel of God’s grace.
  
  “But now I know that none of you
  to whom I preached the kingdom during my travels
  will ever see my face again.
  And so I solemnly declare to you this day
  that I am not responsible for the blood of any of you,
  for I did not shrink from proclaiming to you the entire plan of God.”

  GOSPEL OF THE MASS

  John 17:1-11a

  Jesus raised his eyes to heaven and said,
  “Father, the hour has come.
  Give glory to your son, so that your son may glorify you,
  just as you gave him authority over all people,
  so that your son may give eternal life to all you gave him.
  Now this is eternal life,
  that they should know you, the only true God,
  and the one whom you sent, Jesus Christ.
  I glorified you on earth
  by accomplishing the work that you gave me to do.
  Now glorify me, Father, with you,
  with the glory that I had with you before the world began.
  
  “I revealed your name to those whom you gave me out of the world.
  They belonged to you, and you gave them to me,
  and they have kept your word.
  Now they know that everything you gave me is from you,
  because the words you gave to me I have given to them,
  and they accepted them and truly understood that I came from you,
  and they have believed that you sent me.
  I pray for them.
  I do not pray for the world but for the ones you have given me,
  because they are yours, and everything of mine is yours
  and everything of yours is mine,
  and I have been glorified in them.
  And now I will no longer be in the world,
  but they are in the world, while I am coming to you.”
