Reading

The Acts of the Apostles 11: 19-26

11:19	And some of them, having been dispersed by the persecution that had occurred under Stephen, traveled around, even to Phoenicia and Cyprus and Antioch, speaking the Word to no one, except to Jews only.
11:20	But some of these men from Cyprus and Cyrene, when they had entered into Antioch, were speaking also to the Greeks, announcing the Lord Jesus.
11:21	A ręka Pańska była z nimi. I wielka liczba uwierzyła i nawróciła się do Pana.
11:22	Teraz wiadomość o tych rzeczach dotarła do uszu Kościoła w Jerozolimie, i wysłali Barnabę aż do Antiochii.
11:23	A kiedy tam przybył i ujrzał łaskę Bożą, był zadowolony. I napominał ich wszystkich, aby trwali w Panu z mocnym sercem.
11:24	Bo był dobrym człowiekiem, i został napełniony Duchem Świętym i wiarą. I wielki tłum został dodany do Pana.
11:25	Następnie Barnaba wyruszył do Tarsu, aby mógł szukać Saula. I kiedy go znalazł, przywiózł go do Antiochii.
11:26	I rozmawiali tam w Kościele przez cały rok. I nauczali tak wielką rzeszę, że to w Antiochii uczniowie byli po raz pierwszy znani pod imieniem chrześcijan.

Ewangelia

The Holy Gospel According to John 10: 22-30

10:22	Now it was the Feast of the Dedication at Jerusalem, and it was winter.
10:23	And Jesus was walking in the temple, in the portico of Solomon.
10:24	And so the Jews surrounded him and said to him: “How long will you hold our souls in suspense? If you are the Christ, tell us plainly.”
10:25	Jesus answered them: “I speak to you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in the name of my Father, these offer testimony about me.
10:26	But you do not believe, because you are not of my sheep.
10:27	My sheep hear my voice. And I know them, and they follow me.
10:28	And I give them eternal life, and they shall not perish, for eternity. And no one shall seize them from my hand.
10:29	What my Father gave to me is greater than all, and no one is able to seize from the hand of my Father.
10:30	I and the Father are one.”
