Collect (Prayer)

O God, Who dost gladden us with the solemn yearly festival of Thy holy martyrs, Cyriacus, Largus, and Smaragdus, mercifully grant that we may imitate the virtue of their martyrdom who feast-day we now celebrate.  Through the same.

Epistle • 1 Thess. 2, 2-9

Lesson from the Epistle of blessed Paul the Apostle to the Thessalonians.

[The sincerity of the apostle’s preaching the gospel to them and of their receiving it.]

Brethren, we give thanks to God without ceasing: because, that when you had received of us the word of the hearing of God, you received it not as the word of men, but (as it is indeed) the word of God, who worketh in you that have believed. For you, brethren, are become followers of the churches of God which are in Judea, in Christ Jesus: for you also have suffered the same things from your own coutrymen, even as they have from the Jews, Who both killed the Lord Jesus, and the prophets, and have persecuted us, and please not God, and are adversaries to all men; Prohibiting us to speak to the Gentiles, that they may be saved, to fill up their sins always: for the wrath of God is come upon them to the end.  

Gradual • Ps. 33, 10, 11

Fear the Lord, all ye His saints: for there is no want to them that fear Him. But they that seek the Lord shall not be deprived of any good.

Lesser Alleluia

Alleluia, alleluia. Wis. 3, 7. The just shall shine, and shall run to and fro like sparks among the reeds forever. Alleluia.


 

Gospel • Mark 16, 15-17

Continuation of the Holy Gospel According to St. Mark. 

[Christ’s resurrection and ascension.]

At that time, Jesus said to His disciples, Go ye into the whole world, and preach the gospel to every creature.

He that believeth and is baptized, shall be saved: but he that believeth not shall be condemned. And these signs shall follow them that believe: In my name they shall cast out devils: they shall speak with new tongues. They shall take up serpents; and if they shall drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them: they shall lay their hands upon the sick, and they shall recover.

Offertory • Ps. 31, 11

Be glad in the Lord, and rejoice, ye just: and glory all ye right of heart.
