The First Reading

A reading form the book of Genesis

The Lord God said, ‘It is not good that the man should be

alone. I will make him a helpmate.’ So from the soil the Lord God fashioned all the wild beasts and all the birds of heaven. These he

brought to the man to see what he would call them; each one was to bear the name the man would give it. The man gave names to all

the cattle, all the birds of heaven and all the wild beasts. But no helpmate suitable for man was found for him. So the Lord God

made the man fall into a deep sleep. And while he slept, he took one of his ribs and enclosed it in flesh. The Lord God built the rib he had taken

from the man into a woman, and brought her to the man. The man exclaimed: ‘This at last is bone from my bones, and flesh from my flesh! This

is to be called woman, for this was taken from man.’ This is why a man leaves his father and mother and joins himself to his wife, and they become one body.

The Word

of the Lord

Thanks be to God.

May the Lord bless us all the days of our life.

The Psalm

O blessed are those who fear the Lord and walk in his ways! By the labour of your hands you shall eat. You will be happy and prosper.

The Psalm


The Psalm

Your wife like a fruitful vine in the heart of your house; your children like shoots of the olive, around your table.

The Psalm


The Psalm

Indeed thus shall be blessed the man who fears the Lord. May the Lord bless you from Zion in a happy Jerusalem all the days of your life! May you see your children’s children. On Israel, peace! The Psalm


The Psalm

The Second Reading

A reading from the letter to the Hebrews

We see in Jesus one who was for a short while made

lower than the angels and is now crowned with glory and splendour because he submitted to death; by God’s grace he had to experience

death for all mankind. As it was his purpose to bring a great many of his sons into glory, it was appropriate that God, for

whom everything exists and through whom everything exists, should make perfect, through suffering, the leader who would take them to their

salvation. For the one who sanctifies, and the ones who are sanctified, are of the same stock; that is why he openly calls them brothers.

The Word

of the Lord

Thanks be to God.

Alleluia, alleluia!Your word is truth, O Lord: consecrate us in the truth.Alleluia!

Gospel Acclamation

The Lord be with you.

And with your spirit. A Reading from the holy Gospel according to Mark.

Glory to you, O Lord. The Gospel

Some Pharisees approached Jesus and asked, ‘Is it against the law for a man to divorce his wife?’ They were testing him. He answered

them, ‘What did Moses command you?’ ‘Moses allowed us’ they said ‘to draw up a writ of dismissal and so to divorce.’ Then

Jesus said to them, ‘It was because you were so unteachable that he wrote this commandment for you. But from the beginning of

creation God made them male and female. This is why a man must leave father and mother, and the two become one body. They are no longer

two, therefore, but one body. So then, what God has united, man must not divide.’ Back in the house the disciples questioned him

again about this, and he said to them, ‘The man who divorces his wife and marries another is guilty of adultery against her. And if a woman

divorces her husband and marries another she is guilty of adultery too.’ People were bringing little children to him, for him to

touch them. The disciples turned them away, but when Jesus saw this he was indignant and said to them, ‘Let the little children come

to me; do not stop them; for it is to such as these that the kingdom of God belongs. I tell you solemnly, anyone who does not welcome the

kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it.’ Then he put his arms round them, laid his hands on them and gave them his blessing.

The Gospel of the Lord

Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.

I believe in God, the Father almighty, Creator of heaven and earth, and in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord,

The Apostles’ Creed

who was conceived by the Holy Spirit,born of the Virgin Mary,suffered under Pontius Pilate,


was crucified, died and was buried;he descended into hell;on the third day he rose again from the dead;


he ascended into heaven,and is seated at the right hand of God the Father almighty;


from there he will come to judge the living and the dead.I believe in the Holy Spirit,the holy catholic Church,the communion of saints,


the forgiveness of sins,the resurrection of the body,and life everlasting.

AmenThe Apostles’
