Reading 1: About midnight, while Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God as the prisoners listened, there was suddenly such a severe earthquake that the foundations of the jail shook; all the doors flew open, and the chains of all were pulled loose. (Sixth Tuesday of Easter Season – Acts of the Apostles 16: 25-26)
