First Reading

 

The Acts of the Apostles 10: 25-26, 34-35, 44-48

10:25 Y sucedió que, cuando Pedro había entrado, Cornelio fue a su encuentro. Y cayendo ante sus pies, él reverenciaba.

10:26 Sin embargo, verdaderamente, Pedro, levantándolo, dicho: "Levantate, porque yo también soy sólo un hombre.”

10:34 Entonces, Pedro, abriendo su boca, dicho: “He concluido en verdad que Dios no hace acepción de personas.

10:35 Pero dentro de cada nación, el que le teme y hace justicia le es acepto.

10:44 Mientras Pedro aún hablaba estas palabras, el Espíritu Santo cayó sobre todos los que escuchaban la Palabra.

10:45 Y los fieles de la circuncisión, que había llegado con Peter, se asombraron de que la gracia del Espíritu Santo se derramara también sobre los gentiles.

10:46 Porque los oían hablar en lenguas y magnificar a Dios.

10:47 Entonces Pedro respondió, “¿Cómo podría alguien prohibir el agua, para que los que han recibido el Espíritu Santo no sean bautizados, así como también lo hemos sido?”

10:48 Y mandó que fueran bautizados en el nombre del Señor Jesucristo. Entonces le rogaron que se quedara con ellos algunos días..

 

Segunda Lectura

The First Letter of Saint John 4: 7-10

4:7 Mas amado, let us love one another. For love is of God. And everyone who loves is born of God and knows God.

4:8 Whoever does not love, does not know God. For God is love.

4:9 The love of God was made apparent to us in this way: that God sent his only-begotten Son into the world, so that we might live through him.

4:10 In this is love: not as if we had loved God, but that he first loved us, and so he sent his Son as a propitiation for our sins.

 

Evangelio

The Holy Gospel According to John 15: 9-17

15:9 As the Father has loved me, so I have loved you. Abide in my love.

15:10 If you keep my precepts, you shall abide in my love, just as I also have kept my Father’s precepts and I abide in his love.

15:11 These things I have spoken to you, so that my joy may be in you, and your joy may be fulfilled.

15:12 This is my precept: that you love one another, just as I have loved you.

15:13 No one has a greater love than this: that he lay down his life for his friends.

15:14 You are my friends, if you do what I instruct you.

15:15 I will no longer call you servants, for the servant does not know what his Lord is doing. But I have called you friends, because everything whatsoever that I have heard from my Father, I have made known to you.

15:16 You have not chosen me, but I have chosen you. And I have appointed you, so that you may go forth and bear fruit, and so that your fruit may last. Then whatever you have asked of the Father in my name, he shall give to you.

15:17 This I command you: that you love one another.
