Holy Gospel, prayer of March 19

Today's Gospel
From the Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Matthew 1,16.18-21.24a.
Jacob fathered Joseph, Mary's husband, from whom Jesus called Christ was born.
Here is how the birth of Jesus Christ occurred: her mother Mary, being promised Joseph's bride, before they went to live together, found herself pregnant by the work of the Holy Spirit.
Joseph her husband, who was righteous and did not want to repudiate her, decided to fire her secretly.
But while he was thinking about these things, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said to him: «Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary, your bride, because what is generated in her comes from the Spirit Holy.
She will give birth to a son and you will call him Jesus: in fact he will save his people from their sins ».
Awakened from sleep, Joseph did as the angel of the Lord had ordered.
