3. Reading from the Acts of the Apostles (4:32-35)

Leader: A reading from the Acts of the Apostles.

All the believers were one in heart and mind. No one claimed that any of their possessions was their own, but they
shared everything they had. With great power the apostles continued to testify to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus,
and much grace was upon them all. There were no needy persons among them. For from time to time those who
owned lands or houses sold them, brought the money from the sales and put it at the apostles’ feet, and it was
distributed to anyone who had need.

Leader: The Word of the Lord.

All: Thanks be to God.
