Third Sunday of
Ordinary Time – Year B
5:00 pm Novena to Our Lady
5:30 pm Sunset Mass in English
First Reading
Jonah 3:1-5, 10
1 The word of Yahweh
was addressed to Jonah a second time.
2 'Up!' he said, 'Go to
Nineveh, the great city, and preach to it as I shall tell you.'
3 Jonah set out and
went to Nineveh in obedience to the word of Yahweh. Now Nineveh was a city
great beyond compare; to cross it took three days.
4 Jonah began by going
a day's journey into the city and then proclaimed, 'Only forty days more and
Nineveh will be overthrown.'
5 And the people of
Nineveh believed in God; they proclaimed a fast and put on sackcloth, from the
greatest to the least.
10 God saw their efforts
to renounce their evil ways. And God relented about the disaster which he had
threatened to bring on them, and did not bring it.

PSALMS 25:4-5, 6-7, 8-9
4 DIRECT me in your
ways, Yahweh, and teach me your paths.
5 ENCOURAGE me to walk
in your truth and teach me since you are the God who saves me. FOR my hope is
in you all day long -- such is your generosity, Yahweh.
6 GOODNESS and faithful
love have been yours for ever, Yahweh, do not forget them.
7 HOLD not my youthful
sins against me, but remember me as your faithful love dictates.
8 INTEGRITY and
generosity are marks of Yahweh for he brings sinners back to the path.
9 JUDICIOUSLY he guides
the humble, instructing the poor in his way.
Second Reading
First Corinthians
7:29-31
29 What I mean,
brothers, is that the time has become limited, and from now on, those who have
spouses should live as though they had none;
30 and those who mourn
as though they were not mourning; those who enjoy life as though they did not
enjoy it; those who have been buying property as though they had no
possessions;
31 and those who are
involved with the world as though they were people not engrossed in it. Because
this world as we know it is passing away.

Gospel Reading
Mark 1:14-20
14 After John had been
arrested, Jesus went into Galilee. There he proclaimed the gospel from God
saying,
15 'The time is
fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is close at hand. Repent, and believe the
gospel.'
16 As he was walking
along by the Lake of Galilee he saw Simon and Simon's brother Andrew casting a
net in the lake -- for they were fishermen.
17 And Jesus said to
them, 'Come after me and I will make you into fishers of people.'
18 And at once they left
their nets and followed him.
19 Going on a little
further, he saw James son of Zebedee and his brother John; they too were in
their boat, mending the nets.
20 At once he called
them and, leaving their father Zebedee in the boat with the men he employed,
they went after him.
