Today’s first reading is of Peter’s imprisonment and the angel breaks the chains and allows him to leave the prison.
The second reading is Paul’s goodbye speech to Timothy from prison. He knows he is going to heaven.
In the gospel, Jesus asks who he is and Peter said He is the Christ. Then Jesus said that Peter is the rock on which He will build His church, making him the first pope of our Catholic faith.

I will do the will of the Father with the help of the Holy Spirit! Amen!
