  FIRST LECTURE OF THE MASS

  Colossians 3:14-15, 17, 23-24

  126Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, after our likeness;and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth." 27So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him;male and female he created them. 28And God blessed them, and God said to them, "Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth and subdue it;and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the air and over every living thing that moves upon the earth." 29And God said, "Behold, I have given you every plant yielding seed which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree with seed in its fruit;you shall have them for food. 30And to every beast of the earth, and to every bird of the air, and to everything that creeps on the earth, everything that has the breath of life, I have given every green plant for food." And it was so. 31And God saw everything that he had made, and behold, it was very good. And there was evening and there was morning, a sixth day.21Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. 2And on the seventh day God finished his work which he had done, and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had done. 3So God blessed the seventh day and hallowed it, because on it God rested from all his work which he had done in creation.

  RESPONSORIAL PSALM

  Psalms 90:2-4, 12-14, 16

  2Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, from everlasting to everlasting thou art God. 3Thou turnest man back to the dust, and sayest, "Turn back, O children of men!" 4For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, or as a watch in the night. 12So teach us to number our days that we may get a heart of wisdom. 13Return, O LORD! How long? Have pity on thy servants! 14Satisfy us in the morning with thy steadfast love, that we may rejoice and be glad all our days. 16Let thy work be manifest to thy servants, and thy glorious power to their children.

  GOSPEL OF THE MASS

  Matthew 13:54-58

  54and coming to his own country he taught them in their synagogue, so that they were astonished, and said, "Where did this man get this wisdom and these mighty works? 55Is not this the carpenter's son? Is not his mother called Mary? And are not his brothers James and Joseph and Simon and Judas? 56And are not all his sisters with us? Where then did this man get all this?" 57And they took offense at him. But Jesus said to them, "A prophet is not without honor except in his own country and in his own house." 58And he did not do many mighty works there, because of their unbelief.

  Easter Time.

  FIRST LECTURE OF THE MASS

  Acts 14:19-28

  In those days, some Jews from Antioch and Iconium
  arrived and won over the crowds.
  They stoned Paul and dragged him out of the city,
  supposing that he was dead.
  But when the disciples gathered around him,
  he got up and entered the city.
  On the following day he left with Barnabas for Derbe.
  
  After they had proclaimed the good news to that city
  and made a considerable number of disciples,
  they returned to Lystra and to Iconium and to Antioch.
  They strengthened the spirits of the disciples
  and exhorted them to persevere in the faith, saying,
  “It is necessary for us to undergo many hardships
  to enter the Kingdom of God.”
  They appointed presbyters for them in each Church and,
  with prayer and fasting, commended them to the Lord
  in whom they had put their faith.
  Then they traveled through Pisidia and reached Pamphylia.
  After proclaiming the word at Perga they went down to Attalia.
  From there they sailed to Antioch,
  where they had been commended to the grace of God
  for the work they had now accomplished.
  And when they arrived, they called the Church together
  and reported what God had done with them
  and how he had opened the door of faith to the Gentiles.
  Then they spent no little time with the disciples.

  GOSPEL OF THE MASS

  Jn 14:27-31a

  Jesus said to his disciples:
  “Peace I leave with you;my peace I give to you.
  Not as the world gives do I give it to you.
  Do not let your hearts be troubled or afraid.
  You heard me tell you,
  ‘I am going away and I will come back to you.’
  If you loved me,
  you would rejoice that I am going to the Father;
  for the Father is greater than I.
  And now I have told you this before it happens,
  so that when it happens you may believe.
  I will no longer speak much with you,
  for the ruler of the world is coming.
  He has no power over me,
  but the world must know that I love the Father
  and that I do just as the Father has commanded me.”
