Reading 1 Acts 10: 34a, 37-43Peter proceeded to speak and said: "You know what has happened all over Judea,
beginning in Galilee after the baptism that John preached, how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth
with the Holy Spirit and power. He went about doing good and healing all those oppressed by the
devil, for God was with him. We are witnesses of all that he did both in the country of the
Jews and in Jerusalem. They put him to death by hanging him on a tree. This man God raised on the
third day and granted that he be visible, not to all the people, but to us, the witnesses chosen by
God in advance, who ate and drank with him after he rose from the dead. He commissioned us to preach
to the people and testify that he is the one appointed by God as judge of the living and the dead.
To him all the prophets bear witness, that everyone who believes in him will receive forgiveness of
sins through his name."
Psalm 118: 1-2, 16-17,
22-23
R. (24) This is the day the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be
glad.

for his mercy endures forever.
Let the house of Israel
say,
"His mercy
endures forever."
R. This is the day the Lord
has made, let us rejoice and be glad.
or:
R. Alleluia.
"The right hand of the LORD has struck with power;
the right hand of the LORD is exalted.
I shall not die, but
live,
and declare
the works of the LORD."
R. This is the day the Lord
has mad,; let us rejoice and be glad.
or:
R. Alleluia.
The stone which the builders rejected
has become the cornerstone.
By the LORD has this been done,
it is wonderful in our
eyes.
R. This is the day the Lord
has made, let us rejoice and be glad.
or:
R. Alleluia.
Reading 2 Colossians 3: 1-4
Brothers and sisters:
If then you were raised with Christ, seek what is
above, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God.
Think of what is
above, not of what is on earth. For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. When
Christ your life appears, then you too will appear with him in
glory.
Gospel Jn 20:
1-9
On the first day of the week, Mary of Magdala came to the
tomb early in the morning, while it was still dark, and saw the stone removed from the tomb. So she
ran and went to Simon Peter and to the other disciple whom Jesus loved, and told them, "They have
taken the Lord from the tomb, and we don't know where they put
him."
So
Peter and the other disciple went out and came to the tomb. They both ran, but the other disciple
ran faster than Peter and arrived at the tomb first; he bent down and saw the burial cloths there,
but did not go in. When Simon Peter arrived after him, he went into the tomb and saw the burial
cloths there, and the cloth that had covered his head, not with the burial cloths but rolled
up in a separate place.
Then the other disciple also went in, the one who
had arrived at the tomb first, and he saw and believed. For they did not yet understand the
Scripture that he had to rise from the dead.
