FIRST READING
"One heart and one soul"
Reading from the book of Acts of the Apostles (4, 32-37),
The multitude of those who had become believers had one heart and one soul; and no one said that his possessions belonged to him, but they had everything in common. The Apostles bore witness to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus with great power, and abundant grace was upon them all. None of them was destitute, for all those who owned estates or houses sold them, and they brought the proceeds of the sale to deposit at the feet of the Apostles; then it was distributed according to individual needs.
There was a Levite from Cyprus, Joseph, nicknamed Barnabas by the Apostles, which translates as "man of comfort." He sold a field he owned and brought the money from it, which he deposited at the feet of the Apostles.
The Word of the Lord.
