  FIRST LECTURE OF THE MASS

  Acts 28:11-16, 30-31

  11After three months we set sail in a ship which had wintered in the island, a ship of Alexandria, with the Twin Brothers as figurehead. 12Putting in at Syracuse, we stayed there for three days. 13And from there we made a circuit and arrived at Rhe'gium; and after one day a south wind sprang up, and on the second day we came to Pute'oli. 14There we found brethren, and were invited to stay with them for seven days. And so we came to Rome. 15And the brethren there, when they heard of us, came as far as the Forum of Ap'pius and Three Taverns to meet us. On seeing them Paul thanked God and took courage. 16And when we came into Rome, Paul was allowed to stay by himself, with the soldier that guarded him. 30And he lived there two whole years at his own expense, and welcomed all who came to him, 31preaching the kingdom of God and teaching about the Lord Jesus Christ quite openly and unhindered.

  RESPONSORIAL PSALM

  Psalms 98:1-6

  1O sing to the LORD a new song, for he has done marvelous things! His right hand and his holy arm have gotten him victory. 2The LORD has made known his victory, he has revealed his vindication in the sight of the nations. 3He has remembered his steadfast love and faithfulness to the house of Israel. All the ends of the earth have seen the victory of our God. 4Make a joyful noise to the LORD, all the earth; break forth into joyous song and sing praises! 5Sing praises to the LORD with the lyre, with the lyre and the sound of melody! 6With trumpets and the sound of the horn make a joyful noise before the King, the LORD!

  GOSPEL OF THE MASS

  Matthew 14:22-33

  22Then he made the disciples get into the boat and go before him to the other side, while he dismissed the crowds. 23And after he had dismissed the crowds, he went up on the mountain by himself to pray. When evening came, he was there alone, 24but the boat by this time was many furlongs distant from the land, beaten by the waves; for the wind was against them. 25And in the fourth watch of the night he came to them, walking on the sea. 26But when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were terrified, saying, "It is a ghost!" And they cried out for fear. 27But immediately he spoke to them, saying, "Take heart, it is I; have no fear." 28And Peter answered him, "Lord, if it is you, bid me come to you on the water." 29He said, "Come." So Peter got out of the boat and walked on the water and came to Jesus; 30but when he saw the wind, he was afraid, and beginning to sink he cried out, "Lord, save me." 31Jesus immediately reached out his hand and caught him, saying to him, "O man of little faith, why did you doubt?" 32And when they got into the boat, the wind ceased. 33And those in the boat worshiped him, saying, "Truly you are the Son of God."

  FIRST LECTURE OF THE MASS

  3 jn 5-8

  Beloved, you are faithful in all you do for the brothers and sisters,
  especially for strangers;
  they have testified to your love before the Church.
  Please help them in a way worthy of God to continue their journey.
  For they have set out for the sake of the Name
  and are accepting nothing from the pagans.
  Therefore, we ought to support such persons,
  so that we may be co-workers in the truth.

  GOSPEL OF THE MASS

  lk 18:1-8

  Jesus told his disciples a parable
  about the necessity for them to pray always without becoming weary.
  He said, “There was a judge in a certain town
  who neither feared God nor respected any human being.
  And a widow in that town used to come to him and say,
  ‘Render a just decision for me against my adversary.’
  For a long time the judge was unwilling, but eventually he thought,
  ‘While it is true that I neither fear God nor respect any human being,
  because this widow keeps bothering me
  I shall deliver a just decision for her
  lest she finally come and strike me.’”
  The Lord said, “Pay attention to what the dishonest judge says.
  Will not God then secure the rights of his chosen ones
  who call out to him day and night?
  Will he be slow to answer them?
  I tell you, he will see to it that justice is done for them speedily.
  But when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on earth?”
