    FIRST LECTURE OF THE MASS

    Rom 10:9-18

    Brothers and sisters:
    If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord
    and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead,
    you will be saved.
    For one believes with the heart and so is justified,
    and one confesses with the mouth and so is saved.
    The Scripture says,
    No one who believes in him will be put to shame.
    There is no distinction between Jew and Greek;
    the same Lord is Lord of all,
    enriching all who call upon him.
    For everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.

    But how can they call on him in whom they have not believed?
    And how can they believe in him of whom they have not heard?
    And how can they hear without someone to preach?
    And how can people preach unless they are sent?
    As it is written,
    How beautiful are the feet of those who bring the good news!
    But not everyone has heeded the good news;
    for Isaiah says, Lord, who has believed what was heard from us?
    Thus faith comes from what is heard,
    and what is heard comes through the word of Christ.
    But I ask, did they not hear?
    Certainly they did; for

    Their voice has gone forth to all the earth,
    and their words to the ends of the world.

    RESPONSORIAL PSALM

    Ps 19:8, 9, 10, 11

    R. (10) The judgments of the Lord are true, and all of them are just.
    or:
    R. (John 6:63) Your words, Lord, are Spirit and life.
    The law of the LORD is perfect,
    refreshing the soul;
    The decree of the LORD is trustworthy,
    giving wisdom to the simple.
    R. The judgments of the Lord are true, and all of them are just.
    or:
    R. Your words, Lord, are Spirit and life.
    The precepts of the LORD are right,
    rejoicing the heart;
    The command of the LORD is clear,
    enlightening the eye.
    R. The judgments of the Lord are true, and all of them are just.
    or:
    R. Your words, Lord, are Spirit and life.
    The fear of the LORD is pure,
    enduring forever;
    The ordinances of the LORD are true,
    all of them just.
    R. The judgments of the Lord are true, and all of them are just.
    or:
    R. Your words, Lord, are Spirit and life.
    They are more precious than gold,
    than a heap of purest gold;
    Sweeter also than syrup
    or honey from the comb.
    R. The judgments of the Lord are true, and all of them are just.
    or:
    R. Your words, Lord, are Spirit and life.

    GOSPEL OF THE MASS

    Mt 4:18-22

    As Jesus was walking by the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers,
    Simon who is called Peter, and his brother Andrew,
    casting a net into the sea; they were fishermen.
    He said to them,
    "Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men."
    At once they left their nets and followed him.
    He walked along from there and saw two other brothers,
    James, the son of Zebedee, and his brother John.
    They were in a boat, with their father Zebedee, mending their nets.
    He called them, and immediately they left their boat and their father
    and followed him.

  • THURSDAY THIRTY-FOURTH WEEK OF ORDINARY TIME 2023:

    Ordinary Time.

    FIRST LECTURE OF THE MASS

    Daniel 6, 11-27

    RESPONSORIAL PSALM

    Daniel 3, 68. 69. 70. 71. 72. 73. 74

    GOSPEL OF THE MASS

    Lk 21:20-28

    Jesus said to his disciples:
    "When you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies,
    know that its desolation is at hand.
    Then those in Judea must flee to the mountains.
    Let those within the city escape from it,
    and let those in the countryside not enter the city,
    for these days are the time of punishment
    when all the Scriptures are fulfilled.
    Woe to pregnant women and nursing mothers in those days,
    for a terrible calamity will come upon the earth
    and a wrathful judgment upon this people.
    They will fall by the edge of the sword
    and be taken as captives to all the Gentiles;
    and Jerusalem will be trampled underfoot by the Gentiles
    until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled.

    "There will be signs in the sun, the moon, and the stars,
    and on earth nations will be in dismay,
    perplexed by the roaring of the sea and the waves.
    People will die of fright
    in anticipation of what is coming upon the world,
    for the powers of the heavens will be shaken.
    And then they will see the Son of Man
    coming in a cloud with power and great glory.
    But when these signs begin to happen,
    stand erect and raise your heads
    because your redemption is at hand."
