  FIRST LECTURE OF THE MASS

  Philippians 4:4-9

  4Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, Rejoice. 5Let all men know your forbearance. The Lord is at hand. 6Have no anxiety about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. 7And the peace of God, which passes all understanding, will keep your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. 8Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is gracious, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things. 9What you have learned and received and heard and seen in me, do; and the God of peace will be with you.

  RESPONSORIAL PSALM

  Psalms 34:2-11

  1I will bless the LORD at all times; his praise shall continually be in my mouth. 2My soul makes its boast in the LORD; let the afflicted hear and be glad. 3O magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt his name together! 4I sought the LORD, and he answered me, and delivered me from all my fears. 5Look to him, and be radiant; so your faces shall never be ashamed. 6This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles. 7The angel of the LORD encamps around those who fear him, and delivers them. 8O taste and see that the LORD is good! Happy is the man who takes refuge in him! 9O fear the LORD, you his saints, for those who fear him have no want! 10The young lions suffer want and hunger; but those who seek the LORD lack no good thing.

  GOSPEL OF THE MASS

  John 17:20-26

  20"I do not pray for these only, but also for those who believe in me through their word, 21that they may all be one; even as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be in us, so that the world may believe that thou hast sent me. 22The glory which thou hast given me I have given to them, that they may be one even as we are one, 23I in them and thou in me, that they may become perfectly one, so that the world may know that thou hast sent me and hast loved them even as thou hast loved me. 24Father, I desire that they also, whom thou hast given me, may be with me where I am, to behold my glory which thou hast given me in thy love for me before the foundation of the world. 25O righteous Father, the world has not known thee, but I have known thee; and these know that thou hast sent me. 26I made known to them thy name, and I will make it known, that the love with which thou hast loved me may be in them, and I in them."

  Ordinary Time.

  FIRST LECTURE OF THE MASS

  1 pt 1:10-16

  Beloved:
  Concerning the salvation of your souls
  the prophets who prophesied about the grace that was to be yours
  searched and investigated it
  investigating the time and circumstances
  that the Spirit of Christ within them indicated
  when it testified in advance
  to the sufferings destined for Christ
  and the glories to follow them.
  It was revealed to them that they were serving not themselves but you
  with regard to the things that have now been announced to you
  by those who preached the Good News to you
  through the Holy Spirit sent from heaven,
  things into which angels longed to look.
  
  Therefore, gird up the loins of your mind, live soberly,
  and set your hopes completely on the grace to be brought to you
  at the revelation of Jesus Christ.
  Like obedient children,
  do not act in compliance with the desires of your former ignorance
  but, as he who called you is holy,
  be holy yourselves in every aspect of your conduct,
  for it is written, Be holy because I am holy.
  

  RESPONSORIAL PSALM

  ps 98:1, 2-3ab, 3cd-4

  R. (2a) The Lord has made known his salvation.
  Sing to the LORD a new song,
  for he has done wondrous deeds;
  His right hand has won victory for him,
  his holy arm.
  R. The Lord has made known his salvation.
  The LORD has made his salvation known:
  in the sight of the nations he has revealed his justice.
  He has remembered his kindness and his faithfulness
  toward the house of Israel.
  R. The Lord has made known his salvation.
  All the ends of the earth have seen
  the salvation by our God.
  Sing joyfully to the LORD, all you lands;
  break into song; sing praise.
  R. The Lord has made known his salvation.
  

  GOSPEL OF THE MASS

  mk 10:28-31

  Peter began to say to Jesus,
  “We have given up everything and followed you.”
  Jesus said, “Amen, I say to you,
  there is no one who has given up house or brothers or sisters
  or mother or father or children or lands
  for my sake and for the sake of the Gospel
  who will not receive a hundred times more now in this present age:
  houses and brothers and sisters
  and mothers and children and lands,
  with persecutions, and eternal life in the age to come.
  But many that are first will be last, and the last will be first.”
