Memorial of Our Lady of Fatima

First Reading

Acts 17:15, 22—18:1

15And they that conducted Paul, brought him as far as Athens; and receiving a commandment from him to Silas and Timothy, that they should come to him with all speed, they departed.

22But Paul standing in the midst of the Areopagus, said: Ye men of Athens, I perceive that in all things you are too superstitious.

Responsorial Psalm

Psalm 148:1-2, 11-12, 13, 14

1Praise ye the Lord from the heavens: praise ye him in the high places.

2Praise ye him, all his angels: praise ye him, all his hosts.

11Kings of the earth and all people: princes and all judges of the earth:

12Young men and maidens: let the old with the younger, praise the name of the Lord:

13For his name alone is exalted.

14The praise of him is above heaven and earth: and he hath exalted the horn of his people. A hymn to all his saints: to the children of Israel, a people approaching to him. Alleluia.

Gospel

John 16:12-15

12I have yet many things to say to you: but you cannot bear them now.

13But when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will teach you all truth. For he shall not speak of himself; but what things soever he shall hear, he shall speak; and the things that are to come, he shall shew you.

14He shall glorify me; because he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it to you.

15All things whatsoever the Father hath, are mine. Therefore I said, that he shall receive of mine, and shew it to you.

The Gospel of the Lord.
