Catholic Missal of the day: Monday, May 11 2026

Monday of the Sixth week of Easter

Acts of the Apostles

We set sail from Troas, making a straight run for Samothrace, and on the next day to Neapolis,
and from there to Philippi, a leading city in that district of Macedonia and a Roman colony. We spent some time in that city.
On the sabbath we went outside the city gate along the river where we thought there would be a place of prayer. We sat and spoke with the women who had gathered there.
One of them, a woman named Lydia, a dealer in purple cloth, from the city of Thyatira, a worshiper of God, listened, and the Lord opened her heart to pay attention to what Paul was saying.
After she and her household had been baptized, she offered us an invitation, "If you consider me a believer in the Lord, come and stay at my home," and she prevailed on us.

Psalms

Sing to the LORD a new song
of praise in the assembly of the faithful.
Let Israel be glad in their maker,
let the children of Zion rejoice in their king.
Let them praise his name in the festive dance,
let them sing praise to him with timbrel and harp.
For the LORD loves his people,
and he adorns the lowly with victory.
Let the faithful exult in glory;
let them sing for joy upon their couches;
Let the high praises of God be in their throats.
This is the glory of all his faithful. Alleluia!

Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint John

Jesus said to his disciples: "When the Advocate comes whom I will send you from the Father, the Spirit of truth that proceeds from the Father, he will testify to me.
And you also testify, because you have been with me from the beginning.
I have told you this so that you may not fall away.
They will expel you from the synagogues; in fact, the hour is coming when everyone who kills you will think he is offering worship to God.
They will do this because they have not known either the Father or me.
I have told you this so that when their hour comes you may remember that I told you."

St. Mammertus(Archbischop († c. 477))

SAINT MAMMERTUS Archbishop (c. 477) St. Mammertus was the archbishop of Vienne, France. He was a prelate renowned for his sanctity, learning and miracles. He instituted the fasts and supplications called the Rogations. Abp. Mammertus served during the Roman Empire's collapse and the rise of the Frankish Kingdom. There were wars and calamities, and monstrous beasts roamed the market-places. When a fire struck the city of Vienne, only the Bishop's prayers extinguished the flames. Thus, many recognized the devil in spiritual lukewarmness. Abp. Mammertus emphasized the necessity of prayer for spiritual life. Through his efforts, the Church of Auvergne, where St. Sidonius was bishop, adopted an annual three-day fast and supplication. The fasts and supplications became universal practices before Abp. Mammertus passed away around the year 477.
