SECOND READING
Baptism saves you now
from the first letter of Saint Peter the apostle (3, 18-22)
Beloved, Christ, too, suffered for sins only once, he, the righteous, for the unjust, in order to bring you before God; he was put to death in the flesh, but quickened in the Spirit. It was in him that he went to proclaim his message to the spirits who were in captivity. These long ago had refused to obey, in the days of God's patience long, when Noah built the ark, in which a small number, in all eight people, were saved through the water. He was a figure of baptism who now saves you: baptism does not purify external defilements, but it is the commitment to God with an upright conscience and it saves through the resurrection of Jesus Christ, he who is on the right of God, after having gone to heaven, to whom the angels are subject,
🌿Gospel Acclamation
Man will live not by bread alone, but by every word of God.
