    Easter Time.

    FIRST LECTURE OF THE MASS

    Acts 5:27-32, 40b-41

    When the captain and the court officers had brought the apostles in
    and made them stand before the Sanhedrin,
    the high priest questioned them,
    "We gave you strict orders, did we not,
    to stop teaching in that name?
    Yet you have filled Jerusalem with your teaching
    and want to bring this man’s blood upon us."
    But Peter and the apostles said in reply,
    "We must obey God rather than men.
    The God of our ancestors raised Jesus,
    though you had him killed by hanging him on a tree.
    God exalted him at his right hand as leader and savior
    to grant Israel repentance and forgiveness of sins.
    We are witnesses of these things,
    as is the Holy Spirit whom God has given to those who obey him."
    The Sanhedrin ordered the apostles
    to stop speaking in the name of Jesus, and dismissed them.
    So they left the presence of the Sanhedrin,
    rejoicing that they had been found worthy
    to suffer dishonor for the sake of the name.

    RESPONSORIAL PSALM

    Ps 30:2, 4, 5-6, 11-12, 13

    R. (2a)
    I will praise you, Lord, for you have rescued me.
    or:
    R.Alleluia.
    I will extol you, O LORD, for you drew me clear
    and did not let my enemies rejoice over me.
    O LORD, you brought me up from the netherworld;
    you preserved me from among those going down into the pit.
    R.I will praise you, Lord, for you have rescued me.
    or:
    R.Alleluia.
    Sing praise to the LORD, you his faithful ones,
    and give thanks to his holy name.
    For his anger lasts but a moment;
    a lifetime, his good will.
    At nightfall, weeping enters in,
    but with the dawn, rejoicing.
    R.I will praise you, Lord, for you have rescued me.
    or:
    R.Alleluia.
    Hear, O LORD, and have pity on me;
    O LORD, be my helper.
    You changed my mourning into dancing;
    O LORD, my God, forever will I give you thanks.
    R.I will praise you, Lord, for you have rescued me.
    or:
    R.Alleluia.

    SECOND LECTURE OF THE MASS

    Rev 5:11-14

    I, John, looked and heard the voices of many angels
    who surrounded the throne
    and the living creatures and the elders.
    They were countless in number, and they cried out in a loud voice:
    "Worthy is the Lamb that was slain
    to receive power and riches, wisdom and strength,
    honor and glory and blessing."
    Then I heard every creature in heaven and on earth
    and under the earth and in the sea,
    everything in the universe, cry out:
    "To the one who sits on the throne and to the Lamb
    be blessing and honor, glory and might,
    forever and ever."
    The four living creatures answered, "Amen,"
    and the elders fell down and worshiped.

    GOSPEL OF THE MASS

    Jn 21:1-19

    At that time, Jesus revealed himself again to his disciples at the Sea of Tiberias.
    He revealed himself in this way.
    Together were Simon Peter, Thomas called Didymus,
    Nathanael from Cana in Galilee,
    Zebedee’s sons, and two others of his disciples.
    Simon Peter said to them, "I am going fishing."
    They said to him, "We also will come with you."
    So they went out and got into the boat,
    but that night they caught nothing.
    When it was already dawn, Jesus was standing on the shore;
    but the disciples did not realize that it was Jesus.
    Jesus said to them, "Children, have you caught anything to eat?"
    They answered him, "No."
    So he said to them, "Cast the net over the right side of the boat
    and you will find something."
    So they cast it, and were not able to pull it in
    because of the number of fish.
    So the disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, "It is the Lord."
    When Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord,
    he tucked in his garment, for he was lightly clad,
    and jumped into the sea.
    The other disciples came in the boat,
    for they were not far from shore, only about a hundred yards,
    dragging the net with the fish.
    When they climbed out on shore,
    they saw a charcoal fire with fish on it and bread.
    Jesus said to them, "Bring some of the fish you just caught."
    So Simon Peter went over and dragged the net ashore
    full of one hundred fifty-three large fish.
    Even though there were so many, the net was not torn.
    Jesus said to them, "Come, have breakfast."
    And none of the disciples dared to ask him, "Who are you?"
    because they realized it was the Lord.
    Jesus came over and took the bread and gave it to them,
    and in like manner the fish.
    This was now the third time Jesus was revealed to his disciples
    after being raised from the dead.
    When they had finished breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter,
    "Simon, son of John, do you love me more than these?"
    Simon Peter answered him, "Yes, Lord, you know that I love you."
    Jesus said to him, "Feed my lambs."
    He then said to Simon Peter a second time,
    "Simon, son of John, do you love me?"
    Simon Peter answered him, "Yes, Lord, you know that I love you."
    Jesus said to him, "Tend my sheep."
    Jesus said to him the third time,
    "Simon, son of John, do you love me?"
    Peter was distressed that Jesus had said to him a third time,
    "Do you love me?" and he said to him,
    "Lord, you know everything;you know that I love you."
    Jesus said to him, "Feed my sheep.
    Amen, amen, I say to you, when you were younger,
    you used to dress yourself and go where you wanted;
    but when you grow old, you will stretch out your hands,
    and someone else will dress you
    and lead you where you do not want to go."
    He said this signifying by what kind of death he would glorify God.
    And when he had said this, he said to him, "Follow me."
