Today the Church celebrates the Fourth Sunday of Easter. The assigned readings are Acts 13: 14, 43-52; Revelation 7:9, 14-17; and John 10:27-30. The Responsorial Psalm is from Psalm 100 (Psalm 100:1-3, 5).

The Gospel reading is as follows:

Jesus said: "My sheep hear my voice; I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish. No one can take them out of my hand. My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all, and no one can take them out of the Father's hand. The Father and I are one."
