  FIRST LECTURE OF THE MASS

  Hebrews 8:6-13

  6But as it is, Christ has obtained a ministry which is as much more excellent than the old as the covenant he mediates is better, since it is enacted on better promises.7For if that first covenant had been faultless, there would have been no occasion for a second.8For he finds fault with them when he says: "The days will come, says the Lord, when I will establish a new covenant with the house of Israeland with the house of Judah;9not like the covenant that I made with their fathers on the day when I took them by the handto lead them out of the land of Egypt;for they did not continue in my covenant, and so I paid no heed to them, says the Lord.10This is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the Lord:I will put my laws into their minds, and write them on their hearts, and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.11And they shall not teach every one his fellowor every one his brother, saying, `Know the Lord, 'for all shall know me, from the least of them to the greatest.12For I will be merciful toward their iniquities, and I will remember their sins no more."13In speaking of a new covenant he treats the first as obsolete. And what is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to vanish away.

  RESPONSORIAL PSALM

  Psalms 85:8, 10-14

  7Show us thy steadfast love, O LORD, and grant us thy salvation. 9Surely his salvation is at hand for those who fear him, that glory may dwell in our land. 10Steadfast love and faithfulness will meet;righteousness and peace will kiss each other. 11Faithfulness will spring up from the ground, and righteousness will look down from the sky. 12Yea, the LORD will give what is good, and our land will yield its increase. 13Righteousness will go before him, and make his footsteps a way.

  GOSPEL OF THE MASS

  Mark 3:13-19

  13And he went up on the mountain, and called to him those whom he desired;and they came to him. 14And he appointed twelve, to be with him, and to be sent out to preach 15and have authority to cast out demons: 16Simon whom he surnamed Peter;17James the son of Zeb'edee and John the brother of James, whom he surnamed Bo-aner'ges, that is, sons of thunder;18Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus, and Simon the Cananaean, 19and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed him. Then he went home;

  FIRST LECTURE OF THE MASS

  Heb 9:2-3, 11-14

  A tabernacle was constructed, the outer one,
  in which were the lampstand, the table, and the bread of offering;
  this is called the Holy Place.
  Behind the second veil was the tabernacle called the Holy of Holies.
  
  But when Christ came as high priest of the good things that have come to be,
  passing through the greater and more perfect tabernacle not made by hands,
  that is, not belonging to this creation,
  he entered once for all into the sanctuary,
  not with the blood of goats and calves but with his own Blood,
  thus obtaining eternal redemption.
  For if the blood of goats and bulls and the sprinkling of a heifer’s ashes
  can sanctify those who are defiled
  so that their flesh is cleansed,
  how much more will the Blood of Christ,
  who through the eternal spirit offered himself unblemished to God,
  cleanse our consciences from dead works to worship the living God.
  

  RESPONSORIAL PSALM

  Ps 47:2-3, 6-7, 8-9

  R. (6) God mounts his throne to shouts of joy: a blare of trumpets for the Lord.
  All you peoples, clap your hands,
  shout to God with cries of gladness,
  For the LORD, the Most High, the awesome,
  is the great king over all the earth.
  R. God mounts his throne to shouts of joy: a blare of trumpets for the Lord.
  God mounts his throne amid shouts of joy;
  the LORD, amid trumpet blasts.
  Sing praise to God, sing praise;
  sing praise to our king, sing praise.
  R. God mounts his throne to shouts of joy: a blare of trumpets for the Lord.
  For king of all the earth is God:
  sing hymns of praise.
  God reigns over the nations,
  God sits upon his holy throne.
  R. God mounts his throne to shouts of joy: a blare of trumpets for the Lord.
  

  Alleluia See Acts 16:14b

  GOSPEL OF THE MASS

  Mk 3:20-21

  Jesus came with his disciples into the house.
  Again the crowd gathered,
  making it impossible for them even to eat.
  When his relatives heard of this they set out to seize him,
  for they said, "He is out of his mind."
