    FIRST LECTURE OF THE MASS

    Acts 2:44-47

    44And all who believed were together and had all things in common;45and they sold their possessions and goods and distributed them to all, as any had need. 46And day by day, attending the temple together and breaking bread in their homes, they partook of food with glad and generous hearts, 47praising God and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to their number day by day those who were being saved.

    RESPONSORIAL PSALM

    Colossians 3:12-17

    12Put on then, as God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassion, kindness, lowliness, meekness, and patience, 13forbearing one another and, if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other;as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive. 14And above all these put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony. 15And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in the one body. And be thankful. 16Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teach and admonish one another in all wisdom, and sing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs with thankfulness in your hearts to God. 17And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.

    SECOND LECTURE OF THE MASS

    Psalms 131:1-3

    1O LORD, my heart is not lifted up, my eyes are not raised too high;I do not occupy myself with things too great and too marvelous for me. 2But I have calmed and quieted my soul, like a child quieted at its mother's breast;like a child that is quieted is my soul. 3O Israel, hope in the LORD from this time forth and for evermore.

    GOSPEL OF THE MASS

    Luke 12:22-31

    22And he said to his disciples, "Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you shall eat, nor about your body, what you shall put on. 23For life is more than food, and the body more than clothing. 24Consider the ravens: they neither sow nor reap, they have neither storehouse nor barn, and yet God feeds them. Of how much more value are you than the birds! 25And which of you by being anxious can add a cubit to his span of life? 26If then you are not able to do as small a thing as that, why are you anxious about the rest? 27Consider the lilies, how they grow;they neither toil nor spin;yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. 28But if God so clothes the grass which is alive in the field today and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, how much more will he clothe you, O men of little faith! 29And do not seek what you are to eat and what you are to drink, nor be of anxious mind. 30For all the nations of the world seek these things;and your Father knows that you need them. 31Instead, seek his kingdom, and these things shall be yours as well.

  • TUESDAY SEVENTH WEEK OF EASTER 2021:

    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.”

    RESPONSORIAL PSALM

    Psalm 68:10-11, 20-21

    R. (33a) Sing to God, O kingdoms of the earth.
    or:
    R. Alleluia.
    A bountiful rain you showered down, O God, upon your inheritance;
    you restored the land when it languished;
    Your flock settled in it;
    in your goodness, O God, you provided it for the needy.
    R. Sing to God, O kingdoms of the earth.
    or:
    R. Alleluia.
    Blessed day by day be the Lord,
    who bears our burdens;God, who is our salvation.
    God is a saving God for us;
    the LORD, my Lord, controls the passageways of death.
    R. Sing to God, O kingdoms of the earth.
    or:
    R. Alleluia.

    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.”
