Saints Simon and Jude, apostles - Feast
Letter to the Ephesians
2,19-22.Brothers and sisters: You are no longer strangers and sojourners, but you are fellow citizens with the holy ones and members of the household of God,
built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus himself as the capstone.
Through him the whole structure is held together and grows into a temple sacred in the Lord;
in him you also are being built together into a dwelling place of God in the Spirit.
Psalms
19(18),2-3.4-5.The heavens declare the glory of God;
and the firmament proclaims his handiwork.
Day pours out the word to day,
and night to night imparts knowledge.
Not a word nor a discourse
whose voice is not heard;
Through all the earth their voice resounds,
and to the ends of the world, their message.
Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Luke
6,12-16.Jesus departed to the mountain to pray, and he spent the night in prayer to God.
When day came, he called his disciples to himself, and from them he chose Twelve, whom he also named apostles:
Simon, whom he named Peter, and his brother Andrew, James, John, Philip, Bartholomew,
Matthew, Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus, Simon who was called a Zealot,
and Judas the son of James, and Judas Iscariot, who became a traitor.
Sts. Simon and Jude(apostles - Feast)
SAINTS SIMON AND JUDE Apostles (Feast) Saint Simon usually appears eleventh in the list of the apostles. Nothing is known of him except that he was born in Cana and is surnamed "The Zealot." He was martyred according to Our Lord's prophecy following the second miraculous catch of fish (John 21:21-23). Saint Jude, also called Thaddeus, is the apostle who asked the Lord at the Last Supper why he manifested himself just to his disciples and not to the whole world (John 12:22). Tradition states that he was martyred in present-day Armenia.
