Year I
Reading 1
1 Pet 5:1-4
So I exhort the elders among you, as a fellow elder and a witness of the sufferings ofChrist as well as a partaker in the glory that is to be revealed. Tend the flock of God thatis your charge,l not by constraint but willingly, not for shameful gain but eagerly, notas domineering over those in your charge but being examples to the flock. And whenthe chief Shepherd is manifested you will obtain the unfading crown of glory.
Gospel
Mt 16:13-19
Now when Jesus came into the district of Caesare´a Philippi, he asked his disciples,“Who do men say that the Son of man is?” And they said, “Some say John the Baptist,others say Eli´jah, and others Jeremiah or one of the prophets.” He said to them, “Butwho do you say that I am?” Simon Peter replied, “You are the Christ, the Son of theliving God.” And Jesus answered him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jona! For flesh andblood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven. And I tell you, youare Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the powers of death shall notprevail against it. I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever youbind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosedin heaven.”
