1st Reading Jon 3:1-5.10
The word of the Lord came
to Jonah, saying: “Set out for
the great city of Nineveh, and
announce to it the message that
I will tell you.”
So Jonah made ready and went to Nineveh, according to the Lord’s bidding. Now Nineveh was an enormously large city; it took three days to go through it. Jonah began his journey through the city, and had gone but a single day’s walk announcing, “Forty days more and Nineveh shall be destroyed,” when the people of Nineveh believed God; they proclaimed a fast, and all of them, great and small, put on sackcloth.
When God saw by their actions how they turned from their evil way, he repented of the evil that he had threatened to do to them; he did not carry it out.

Responsorial Psalm: Ps 25
R –Teach me your ways,
O Lord!
* Your ways, O Lord, make
known to me; teach me your
paths, guide me in your truth
and teach me, for you are God
my savior. R.
* Remember that your compassion, O Lord, and your love
are from of old. In your kindness remember me, because of
your goodness, O Lord. R.
* Good and upright is the
Lord; thus he shows sinners the
way. He guides the humble to
justice, and teaches the humble
his way. R
2nd Reading: 1 Cor 7:29-31
I tell you, brothers and
sisters, the time is running out.
From now on, let those
having wives act as not having them, those weeping as
not weeping, those rejoicing
as not rejoicing, those buying
as not owning, those using the
world as not using it fully. For
the world in its present form is
passing away.
Gospel Acclamation: Mk 1:15
Alleluia! Alleluia!
The Kingdom of God is at hand. Repent and believe
in the Gospel.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Gospel: Mk 1:14-20
After John had been arrested, Jesus came to Galilee
proclaiming the gospel of God:
“This is the time of fulfillment.
The kingdom of God is at hand.
Repent, and believe in the gospel.”
As he passed by the Sea
of Galilee, he saw Simon and
his brother Andrew casting
their nets into the sea; they
were fishermen. Jesus said to
them, “Come after me, and I
will make you fishers of men.”
Then they abandoned their
nets and followed him.
He walked along a little
farther and saw James, the son
of Zebedee, and his brother
John. They, too, were in a boat
mending their nets. Then he
called them. So they left their
father Zebedee in the boat,
along with the hired men, and
followed him.
