First ReadingFirst ReadingFirst ReadingFirst Reading

A reading from the first letter of St Paul to the Corinthians (12:31-13:8)

Be ambitious for the higher gifts. And I am going to show you a way that is better than any of them.

If I have all the eloquence of men or of angels, but speak without love, I am simply a gong booming or a cymbal clashing.

1 of 41 of 4


First Reading (con’t)First Reading (con’t)First Reading (con’t)First Reading (con’t)

If I have the gift of prophecy, understanding all the faith in all its fullness, to move mountains, but without love, then I am nothing at all.

If I give away all that I posses, piece by piece, and if I even let them take my body to burn it, but am without love, it will do me no good whatever.

2 of 42 of 4


Love is always patient and kind; it is never jealous; love is never boastful or conceited; it is never rude or selfish; it does not take offence; and is not resentful.

Love takes no pleasure in other people’s sins but delights in the truth; it is always ready to excuse, to trust, to hope, and to endure whatever comes.


3 of 43 of 4


Love does not come to an end.

The Word of the Lord.

All : Thanks be to God.

This poor man called; the Lord heard him and rescued him from all his distress.

The angel of the Lord is encamped around those who revere him, to rescue them. Taste and see that the Lord is good.

He is happy who seeks refuge in him.
