  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.

  Easter Time.

  FIRST LECTURE OF THE MASS

  Acts 19:1-8

  While Apollos was in Corinth,
  Paul traveled through the interior of the country
  and down to Ephesus where he found some disciples.
  He said to them,
  “Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you became believers?”
  They answered him,
  “We have never even heard that there is a Holy Spirit.”
  He said, “How were you baptized?”
  They replied, “With the baptism of John.”
  Paul then said, “John baptized with a baptism of repentance,
  telling the people to believe in the one who was to come after him,
  that is, in Jesus.”
  When they heard this,
  they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.
  And when Paul laid his hands on them,
  the Holy Spirit came upon them,
  and they spoke in tongues and prophesied.
  Altogether there were about twelve men.
  
  He entered the synagogue, and for three months debated boldly
  with persuasive arguments about the Kingdom of God.

  GOSPEL OF THE MASS

  John 16:29-33

  The disciples said to Jesus,
  “Now you are talking plainly, and not in any figure of speech.
  Now we realize that you know everything
  and that you do not need to have anyone question you.
  Because of this we believe that you came from God.”
  Jesus answered them, “Do you believe now?
  Behold, the hour is coming and has arrived
  when each of you will be scattered to his own home
  and you will leave me alone.
  But I am not alone, because the Father is with me.
  I have told you this so that you might have peace in me.
  In the world you will have trouble,
  but take courage, I have conquered the world.”
