Gospel Mark 6:7-13

  • 7And he called the twelve. And he began to send them out in twos, and he gave them authority over unclean spirits.

  • 8And he instructed them not to take anything for the journey, except a staff: no traveling bag, no bread, and no money belt,

  • 9but to wear sandals, and not to wear two tunics.

  • 10And he said to them: “Whenever you have entered into a house, stay there until you depart from that place.

  • 11And whoever will neither receive you, nor listen to you, as you go away from there, shake off the dust from your feet as a testimony against them.”

  • 12And going out, they were preaching, so that people would repent.

  • 13And they cast out many demons, and they anointed many of the sick with oil and healed them.

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.
