Readings for the Solemnity of All Saints Cycle A

The Diocese of Sevilla has published the readings for the Solemnity of All Saints for Cycle A.

The first reading is from Apocalipsis 7, 2-4 and 9-14. It describes an immense multitude from all nations, races, peoples, and languages standing before the throne and the Cordero. These people wear white garments and hold palms, shouting that victory belongs to God and the Cordero. The text states these individuals come from the great tribulation and have washed their garments in the blood of the Cordero.

The Psalm is Salmo 23, 1-2, 3-4ab, 5-6 with the refrain: "Esta es la generación que busca tu rostro, señor."
