First Reading [ Isa 52:7-10 ]
A Reading from the Prophet Isaiah
How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of the one bringing good news, Announcing peace, bearing good news, announcing salvation, saying to Zion, “Your God is King!” Listen! Your sentinels raise a cry, together they shout for joy, For they see directly, before their eyes, the Lord’s return to Zion.
Break out together in song, O ruins of Jerusalem! For the Lord has comforted his people, has redeemed Jerusalem. The Lord has bared his holy arm in the sight of all the nations; All the ends of the earth can see the salvation of our God. - The Word of the Lord.
Responsorial Psalm [ Ps 117 ]
【R】: O Lord, my mouth will proclaim your salvation.
Praise the Lord, all you nations! Extol him, all you peoples! 【R】
His mercy for us is strong; the faithfulness of the Lord is forever. 【R】
Gospel Acclamation [ Mt 28:19-20 ]
The Lord said, Go, make disciples of all nations. And behold, I am with you always, until the end of the age.
Gospel Acclamation [ Mt 28:19-20 ]
A reading from the Gospel according to St Mark
He said to them, “Go into the whole world and proclaim the gospel to every creature. Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved; whoever does not believe will be condemned. These signs will accompany those who believe: in my name they will drive out demons, they will speak new languages. They will pick up serpents [with their hands], and if they drink any deadly thing, it will not harm them. They will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover.”
So then the Lord Jesus, after he spoke to them, was taken up into heaven and took his seat at the right hand of God. But they went forth and preached everywhere, while the Lord worked with them and confirmed the word through accompanying signs. - The Word of the Lord
