Gospel Mark 3:13-19
13And ascending onto a mountain, he called to himself those whom he willed, and they came to him.
14And he acted so that the twelve would be with him, and so that he might send them out to preach.
15And he gave them authority to cure infirmities, and to cast out demons:
16and he imposed on Simon the name Peter;
17and also he imposed on James of Zebedee, and John the brother of James, the name ‘Boanerges,’ that is, ‘Sons of Thunder;’
18and Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James of Alphaeus, and Thaddeus, and Simon the Canaanite,
19and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him.

Computed by Bless from the US Lectionary cycle — confirm with your parish.
In US parishes the readings are proclaimed from the NABRE; the text shown here is the Catholic Public Domain Version.
Old Testament readings and the psalm are listed with a link to their chapter: the US Lectionary numbers some of their verses differently from the CPDV, so their text is not printed here. Psalm citations keep the Lectionary’s Hebrew numbering; the CPDV numbers the Psalms as the Vulgate does.
