First Reading: Acts 1:12-14 [#708 (1) on P.1876]
A reading from the Acts of the Apostles.
(After Jesus was taken up into heaven,)
the Apostles returned to Jerusalem
from the mount called Olivet,
which is near Jerusalem,
a sabbath day’s journey away;
and when they had entered,
they went up to the upper room,
where they were staying,
Peter and John and James and Andrew,
Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew,
James the son of Alphaeus
and Simon the Zealot
and Judas the son of James.
All these with one accord devoted themselves to prayer,
together with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus,
and with his brethren.
The Word of the Lord.
Responsorial Psalm: Luke 1:46-55 [# 709 (5) on p. 1879]
Let us now pray the Responsorial Psalm:
R/. He who is mighty has done great things for me,
and holy is his name.
“My soul magnifies the Lord,
and my spirit rejoices in God my Saviour,
for he has regarded the low estate of his handmaiden.
For behold, henceforth all generations will call me blessed;
for he who is mighty has done great things for me,
and holy is his name.
And his mercy is on those who fear him
from generation to generation.
He has shown strength with his arm,
he has scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.
He has put down the mighty from their thrones,
and exalted those of low degree;
he has filled the hungry with good things,
and the rich he has sent empty away.
He has helped his servant Israel,
in remembrance of his mercy,
as he spoke to our fathers,
to Abraham and to his posterity forever.”
R/. He who is mighty has done great things for me,
and holy is his name.
Please stand for the Gospel.
Alleluia, alleluia.
Hail, Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with you; blessed are you among women.
Alleluia.
Gospel: Luke 1:26-38 [#712 (4) on p. 1884]
A reading from the Holy Gospel according to Luke.
At that time;
the angel Gabriel was sent from God
to a city of Galilee named Nazareth,
to a virgin betrothed to a man whose name was Joseph,
of the house of David;
and the virgin’s name was Mary.
And he came to her and said,
“Hail, full of grace, the Lord is with you!”
But she was greatly troubled at the saying
and considered in her mind what sort of greeting this might be.
And the angel said to her,
“Do not be afraid, Mary,
for you, have found favour with God.
And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son,
and you shall call his name Jesus.
He will be great,
and will be called the Son of the Most High;
and the Lord God will give to him
the throne of his father David,
and he will reign over the house of Jacob forever,
and of his kingdom, there will be no end.”
And Mary said to the angel,
“How will this be, since I do not know man?”
And the angel said to her,
“The Holy Spirit will come upon you,
and the power of the Most High will overshadow you;
therefore the child to be born will be called holy,
the Son of God.
And behold,
your kinswoman Elizabeth in her old age
has also conceived a son;
and this is the sixth month with her who was called barren.
For with God nothing will be impossible.”
And Mary said,
“Behold, I am the handmaid of the Lord;
let it be to me according to your word.”
And the angel departed from her.
