3rd Sunday in Ordinary Time

Date: January 25, 2015

First Reading (Jonah 3: 1–5 and 10)
A reading from the book of Jonah.
The word of the Lord came to Jonah a second time: "Go to Nineveh, the great city, and announce to them the message I give you." In obedience to the word of the Lord, Jonah went to Nineveh. It was a very large city, and it took three days just to cross it. So Jonah walked a single day's journey and began proclaiming, "Forty days more and Nineveh will be destroyed." The people of the city believed God. They declared a fast, and all of them, from the greatest to the least, put on sackcloth. When God saw what they did and how they turned from their evil ways, he had compassion and did not carry out the destruction he had threatened upon them.

Second Reading (1 Corinthians 7: 29–31)
A reading from the first letter of Saint Paul to the Corinthians.
I state this, brothers and sisters: time is running out, and those who are married must live as if not married; those who weep as if not weeping; those who are happy as if they were not happy; those buying something as if they had not bought it; and those enjoying the present life as if they were not enjoying it, for the order of this world is vanishing.

Gospel (Mark 1: 14–20)
A reading from the holy Gospel according to Mark.
After John was arrested, Jesus went into Galilee and began preaching the Good News of God. He stated, "The time has come; the kingdom of God is at hand. Change your ways and believe in the Good News." As Jesus was walking along the shore of Lake Galilee, he saw Simon and his brother Andrew casting a net in the lake, for they were fishermen. And Jesus stated to them, "Follow me, and I will make you fish for people." At once, they left their nets and followed him. Jesus went a little farther on and saw James and John, the sons of Zebedee; they were in their boat mending their nets. Immediately, Jesus called them and they followed him, leaving their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired men.

  1. Responsorial Psalm (Psalm 25) (Verses 4–9)
    The response is: Teach me your ways, O Lord.

    Teach me your ways, O Lord; make known to me your paths. Guide me in your truth and instruct me, for you are my God, my savior; I hope in you all day long.

    Remember your compassion, O Lord, your unfailing love of old. Remember not the sins of my youth, but in your love remember me.

    Good and upright, the Lord teaches sinners his way. He teaches the humble of heart and guides them in what is right.

  2. Si no estabas en los ensayos anteriores, implementamos estrictamente nuestra regla de asistencia en cuanto a las tardanzas no-excusadas y ausencias, especialmente las personas que no nos despidieron. Para que recaudemos a tiempo el dinero adecuado para nuestro viaje doméstico en Vietnam, habrá una multa cada vez que estén tardes o ausentes. Se aplican estas multas desde hoy hasta el mes de marzo. Las ausencias y tardanzas acumuladas desde el noviembre forman parte de la asistencia también. Otra vez, esta regla sólo trata de recaudar dinero para nuestro viaje. No piensen que esta regla es un ataque personal. Por lo tanto, si ustedes quieren evitar pagarnos, vengan a los ensayos a tiempo y que tengan una excusa válida por su ausencia. Comprueben el estado de su asistencia conmigo. Gracias por su atención.
