Friends of the Rosary,Lord Christ says today in the Gospel (Luke 12:35-38),"Blessed are those servants whom the master finds vigilant on his arrival."In today's reading, Jesus is calling us to be vigilant for the Second Coming. The Lord tells the parable of the faithful servant whom the master finds vigilant on his return from a wedding.  The creed we recite every day says, “He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead.”And the liturgy states it clearly: “As we await the blessed hope and the coming of our Savior, Jesus Christ.” In Eucharistic Prayer IV, we find, “As we await his coming in glory...” Toward the end of the New Testament, we read, “Come, Lord Jesus!”Whenever the end times may be, each of us must prepare for Christ's second coming at the end of our lives.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

Today's Topics: 1, 2, 3, 4) Gospel - Luke 12:1-7 - At that time: So many people were crowding together that they were trampling one another underfoot. Jesus began to speak, first to His disciples, "Beware of the leaven–that is, the hypocrisy–of the Pharisees. "There is nothing concealed that will not be revealed, nor secret that will not be known. Therefore whatever you have said in the darkness will be heard in the light, and what you have whispered behind closed doors will be proclaimed on the housetops. I tell you, My friends, do not be afraid of those who kill the body but after that can do no more. I shall show you Whom to fear. Be afraid of the One Who after killing has the power to cast into Gehenna; yes, I tell you, be afraid of that One. Are not five sparrows sold for two small coins? Yet not one of them has escaped the notice of God. Even the hairs of your head have all been counted. Do not be afraid. You are worth more than many sparrows."

Today's Topics: 1, 2, 3, 4) Gospel - Luke 11:47-54 - The Lord said: "Woe to you who build the memorials of the prophets whom your fathers killed. Consequently, you bear witness and give consent to the deeds of your ancestors, for they killed them and you do the building. Therefore, the wisdom of God said, 'I will send to them prophets and Apostles; some of them they will kill and persecute' in order that this generation might be charged with the blood of all the prophets shed since the foundation of the world, from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zechariah who died between the altar and the temple building. Yes, I tell you, this generation will be charged with their blood! Woe to you, scholars of the law! You have taken away the key of knowledge. You yourselves did not enter and you stopped those trying to enter." When Jesus left, the scribes and Pharisees began to act with hostility toward Him and to interrogate Him about many things, for they were plotting to catch Him at something He might say.

Gospel  Luke 11:37-41 After Jesus had spoken, a Pharisee invited him to dine at his home. He entered and reclined at table to eat. The Pharisee was amazed to see that he did not observe the prescribed washing before the meal. The Lord said to him, "Oh you Pharisees! Although you cleanse the outside of the cup and the dish, inside you are filled with plunder and evil. You fools! Did not the maker of the outside also make the inside? But as to what is within, give alms, and behold, everything will be clean for you.” Reflection In order to understand the life of the Pharisees that Jesus was so anxious to expose was the fact that there was a way in which they were called to always be clean, never unclean, and there were all these rituals that went to make them clean. And Jesus knows them and knows at the heart of their very being there is a problem. It's greed. It's wanting power. It's wanting control. It's so interesting that he says in such a simple way, you know, if you would just get past all of this, focus on yourself and your power and be generous. Give it away. Understand who I can be in you, making you so rich and so powerful. Closing Prayer Father, bless us always, with a generous, open heart. When we are open to you, we are open to one another. We have compassion. We have understanding. Bless us with not being caught up so much in ourselves, in our roles, in our positions, but make us more like you. Compassionate and understanding.

Seventeenth Sunday after Pentecost Old Testament: Habakkuk 1:1-4, 2:1-4 1The oracle that the prophet Habakkuk saw. 2O Lord, how long shall I cry for help, and you will not listen? Or cry to you “Violence!” and you will not save? 3Why do you make me see wrong-doing and look at trouble? Destruction and violence are before me; strife and contention arise. 4So the law becomes slack and justice never prevails. The wicked surround the righteous— therefore judgment comes forth perverted. 1I will stand at my watchpost, and station myself on the rampart; I will keep watch to see what he will say to me, and what he will answer concerning my complaint. 2Then the Lord answered me and said: Write the vision; make it plain on tablets, so that a runner may read it. 3For there is still a vision for the appointed time; it speaks of the end, and does not lie. If it seems to tarry, wait for it; it will surely come, it will not delay. 4Look at the proud! Their spirit is not right in them, but the righteous live by their faith. Psalm: Psalm 37:1-10 1 Do not fret yourself because of evildoers; *        do not be jealous of those who do wrong. 2 For they shall soon wither like the grass, *        and like the green grass fade away. 3 Put your trust in the Lord and do good; *        dwell in the land and feed on its riches. 4 Take delight in the Lord, *        and he shall give you your heart's desire. 5 Commit your way to the Lord and put your trust in him, *        and he will bring it to pass. 6 He will make your righteousness as clear as the light *        and your just dealing as the noonday. 7 Be still before the Lord *        and wait patiently for him. 8 Do not fret yourself over the one who prospers, *        the one who succeeds in evil schemes. 9 Refrain from anger, leave rage alone; *        do not fret yourself; it leads only to evil. 10 For evildoers shall be cut off, *        but those who wait upon the Lord shall possess the land. Epistle: 2 Timothy 1:1-14 1Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, for the sake of the promise of life that is in Christ Jesus, 2To Timothy, my beloved child: Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.3I am grateful to God—whom I worship with a clear conscience, as my ancestors did—when I remember you constantly in my prayers night and day. 4Recalling your tears, I long to see you so that I may be filled with joy. 5I am reminded of your sincere faith, a faith that lived first in your grandmother Lois and your mother Eunice and now, I am sure, lives in you. 6For this reason I remind you to rekindle the gift of God that is within you through the laying on of my hands; 7for God did not give us a spirit of cowardice, but rather a spirit of power and of love and of self-discipline.8Do not be ashamed, then, of the testimony about our Lord or of me his prisoner, but join with me in suffering for the gospel, relying on the power of God, 9who saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works but according to his own purpose and grace. This grace was given to us in Christ Jesus before the ages began, 10but it has now been revealed through the appearing of our Savior Christ Jesus, who abolished death and brought life and immortality to light through the gospel. 11For this gospel I was appointed a herald and an apostle and a teacher, 12and for this reason I suffer as I do. But I am not ashamed, for I know the one in whom I have put my trust, and I am sure that he is able to guard until that day what I have entrusted to him. 13Hold to the standard of sound teaching that you have heard from me, in the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus. 14Guard the good treasure entrusted to you, with the help of the Holy Spirit living in us. Gospel: Luke 17:5-10 5The apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our faith!” 6The Lord replied, “If you had faith the size of a mustard seed, you could say to this mulberry tree, ‘Be uprooted and planted in the sea,' and it would obey you. 7“Who among you would say to your slave who has just come in from plowing or tending sheep in the field, ‘Come here at once and take your place at the table'? 8Would you not rather say to him, ‘Prepare supper for me, put on your apron and serve me while I eat and drink; later you may eat and drink'? 9Do you thank the slave for doing what was commanded? 10So you also, when you have done all that you were ordered to do, say, ‘We are worthless slaves; we have done only what we ought to have done!'”

Today's Topics: 1) Gospel - Luke 11:5-13 - Jesus said to his disciples: "Suppose one of you has a friend to whom he goes at midnight and says, 'Friend, lend me three loaves of bread, for a friend of mine has arrived at my house from a journey and I have nothing to offer him,' and he says in reply from within, 'Do not bother me; the door has already been locked and my children and I are already in bed. I cannot get up to give you anything.' I tell you, if he does not get up to give him the loaves because of their friendship, he will get up to give him whatever he needs because of his persistence. "And I tell you, ask and you will receive; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks, receives; and the one who seeks, finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened. What father among you would hand his son a snake when he asks for a fish? Or hand him a scorpion when he asks for an egg?

Lord, Increase Our Faith: The Power of a Mustard Seed At the start of Mass, the congregation says “Amen” to the opening prayer, asking for God's mercy . . . . . . mercy that both pardons what conscience dreads and grants blessings too great to ask for. The Homily reflects on this prayer, connecting it to the Gospel where the disciples ask Jesus, “Lord, increase our faith.” Jesus' response and parable about faith the size of a mustard seed teaches that even a small amount of faith can accomplish great things if it is lived out . . . not by instantly fulfilling our desires, but by learning to trust God's timing and will. Faith grows through use, through daily acts of trust and service. The Homily emphasizes that belief is not just about ideas about God but a living trust in God. Each believer is called to say, “I believe in God,” personally and actively. Ordinary Christian life means serving, trusting, and acting in faith every day . . . not just occasionally or passively. The Homily concludes by beautifully at the Eucharist: Jesus, the Master, comes to serve his servants. When we receive Him in Communion and pray, “Lord, increase my faith,” His response is immediate and intimate: “I am here within you . . . believe in Me.” Even a small act of belief in that moment begins the growth of faith that transforms our lives.

Remove not from house to house.In eadem autem domo manete, edentes et bibentes quae apud illos sunt : dignus est enim operarius mercede sua. Nolite transire de domo in domum. 8 And into what city soever you enter, and they receive you, eat such things as are set before you.Et in quamcumque civitatem intraveritis, et susceperint vos, manducate quae apponuntur vobis : 9 And heal the sick that are therein, and say to them: The kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.et curate infirmos, qui in illa sunt, et dicite illis : Appropinquavit in vos regnum DeiThis holy Priest of Luna in Tuscany founded the Congregation of Regular Clergy called "of the Mother of God", and the Institutes.

Friends of the Rosary,Today, the reading of the Gospel (Luke 11:1-4) presents us with the prayer that Christ Jesus taught us.He said to the disciples, "When you pray, say:Father, hallowed be your name,Your Kingdom come.Give us each day our daily breadand forgive us our sinsfor we ourselves forgive everyone in debt to us,and do not subject us to the final test."Through the "Lord's Prayer", we put God's holy name first; we strive to do his will in all things and at all times; we ask to be strengthened by spiritual food; we commit to be forgiving and withstand the dark powers.Humans are wired with the desire to speak to God and listen to Him. That impulse — that grace — is planted deep within us.Our prayer is not designed to change God's mind or to tell God something he doesn't know. He is rather the One who wants to give us good things, though they might not always be what we want.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

Gospel  Luke 10:38-42 Jesus entered a village where a woman whose name was Martha welcomed him. She had a sister named Mary who sat beside the Lord at his feet listening to him speak. Martha, burdened with much serving, came to him and said, "Lord, do you not care that my sister has left me by myself to do the serving? Tell her to help me." The Lord said to her in reply, "Martha, Martha, you are anxious and worried about many things. There is need of only one thing. Mary has chosen the better part and it will not be taken from her.” Reflection Jesus in this story has two ways of understanding the way in which we spend time with God. One is doing everything we can to make ourselves, and our life, and what we do, and what we think we're to make it all what God wants, like setting the perfect dinner table and making the perfect food. And that is a way of honoring our guest. But what people really want, what God wants to teach Martha, is it's not about the setting. It's about the interchange that happens when people are together eating a meal, sharing their wisdom, sharing their struggles. It's about intimacy, and that's what God wants with us. He doesn't want us presenting something that we work on, so that it's as perfect as possible. No, he just wants us to be ourselves in his presence, to speak and to listen and to learn. Closing Prayer Father, everything you say to us through Jesus, through your holy Spirit, is always focused on the one thing, a closeness with you, a oneness with you, an ability to spend time listening to you, and not thinking so much or working so hard. Bless us with that kind of contemplative spirit. And we ask that in Jesus' name, Amen. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

26 And in the sixth month, the angel Gabriel was sent from God into a city of Galilee, called Nazareth,In mense autem sexto, missus est angelus Gabriel a Deo in civitatem Galilaeae, cui nomen Nazareth, 27 To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin's name was Mary.ad virginem desponsatam viro, cui nomen erat Joseph, de domo David : et nomen virginis Maria. 28 And the angel being come in, said unto her: Hail, full of grace, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women.Et ingressus angelus ad eam dixit : Ave gratia plena : Dominus tecum : benedicta tu in mulieribus. 29 Who having heard, was troubled at his saying, and thought with herself what manner of salutation this should be.Quae cum audisset, turbata est in sermone ejus, et cogitabat qualis esset ista salutatio. 30 And the angel said to her: Fear not, Mary, for thou hast found grace with God.Et ait angelus ei : Ne timeas, Maria : invenisti enim gratiam apud Deum. 31 Behold thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and shalt bring forth a son; and thou shalt call his name Jesus.Ecce concipies in utero, et paries filium, et vocabis nomen ejus Jesum : 32 He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the most High; and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of David his father; and he shall reign in the house of Jacob for ever.hic erit magnus, et Filius Altissimi vocabitur, et dabit illi Dominus Deus sedem David patris ejus : et regnabit in domo Jacob in aeternum, 33 And of his kingdom there shall be no end.et regni ejus non erit finis. 34 And Mary said to the angel: How shall this be done, because I know not man?Dixit autem Maria ad angelum : Quomodo fiet istud, quoniam virum non cognosco? 35 And the angel answering, said to her: The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the most High shall overshadow thee. And therefore also the Holy which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.Et respondens angelus dixit ei : Spiritus Sanctus superveniet in te, et virtus Altissimi obumbrabit tibi. Ideoque et quod nascetur ex te sanctum, vocabitur Filius Dei. 36 And behold thy cousin Elizabeth, she also hath conceived a son in her old age; and this is the sixth month with her that is called barren:Et ecce Elisabeth cognata tua, et ipsa concepit filium in senectute sua : et hic mensis sextus est illi, quae vocatur sterilis : 37 Because no word shall be impossible with God.quia non erit impossibile apud Deum omne verbum. 38 And Mary said: Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it done to me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her.Dixit autem Maria : Ecce ancilla Domini : fiat mihi secundum verbum tuum. Et discessit ab illa angelus.In its present form the Rosary (according to the accepted tradition) is due to St Dominic, the founder of the Order of Friars Preachers, his objective being to stem the flood of the Albigensian heresy, then spreading far and wide throughout Europe. He propagated this prayer in obedience to a revelation received from the Blessed Virgin, to whom he had recourse for this purpose, about the war 1206, and to him we owe the spread of a devotion, in the Christian world. The decisive defeat of the Turks at the famous battle of Lepanto (A.D. 1571) and at Belgrade (A.D. 1716) gave occasion to the institution of this Feast and to its extension to the Universal Church.

Jesus said to him, "What is written in the law? How do you read it?" He said in reply, "You shall love the Lord, your God, with all your heart, with all your being, with all your strength, and with all your mind, and your neighbor as yourself." He replied to him, "You have answered correctly; do this and you will live." But because he wished to justify himself, he said to Jesus, "And who is my neighbor?" Jesus replied, "A man fell victim to robbers as he went down from Jerusalem to Jericho. They stripped and beat him and went off leaving him half-dead. A priest happened to be going down that road, but when he saw him, he passed by on the opposite side. Likewise a Levite came to the place, and when he saw him, he passed by on the opposite side. But a Samaritan traveler who came upon him was moved with compassion at the sight. He approached the victim, poured oil and wine over his wounds and bandaged them. Then he lifted him up on his own animal, took him to an inn, and cared for him. The next day he took out two silver coins and gave them to the innkeeper with the instruction, 'Take care of him. If you spend more than what I have given you, I shall repay you on my way back.' Which of these three, in your opinion, was neighbor to the robbers' victim?" He answered, "The one who treated him with mercy." Jesus said to him, "Go and do likewise."

Why? Because gratitude transforms healing into communion. It's not manners; it's worship. It's the doorway where grace becomes relationship, where God's mercy turns our everyday life into an altar.Join Greg and Stephanie as they unpack five keys to living gratitude — with wit, depth, and personal stories you'll recognize from your own life.

This Sunday's Gospel (Luke 17:5–10) is not about more faith — it's about less self. The apostles beg Jesus: “Increase our faith.” But He points to a mustard seed. Small. Hidden. Explosive.In this Mass Prep for the Mystic Heart, we dive into:-Why the Bride of Christ always begins with ache and longing.-The mystics' path of littleness and nada — St. Thérèse, John of the Cross, Teresa of Ávila.-What Jesus means when He calls us “unprofitable servants” — love doesn't send invoices.-St. Francis of Assisi as the fool who emptied himself until only Christ remained.-The reversal: the Master who stoops to serve His servants, the Bridegroom who kneels before the Bride.This is mustard seed mysticism: God doesn't need your performance, your devotions tallied up like receipts. He wants your presence. He wants your emptiness. He wants the tiny seed of faith that, surrendered, can move mountains.Prepare your heart for Sunday's Mass with this reflection on faith, littleness, and the love that stoops.

On the way they entered a Samaritan village to prepare for his reception there, but they would not welcome him because the destination of his journey was Jerusalem. When the disciples James and John saw this they asked, "Lord, do you want us to call down fire from heaven to consume them?" Jesus turned and rebuked them, and they journeyed to another village. Reflection The Old Testament is essential. It is a story that we have to understand. And then Jesus came, God incarnate, and so many things changed. And one of the things you see in the Old Testament is God using violence, destruction to make things clear to people. They understood violence and they understood power. But there's a new form of power in the New Testament. And so when Jesus rebukes James and John, who by the way, had the nickname Sons of Thunder. He said, no, we're not there anymore. We're not using violence to establish my kingdom. But forgiveness. Closing Prayer Father, violence often has at its heart, hate. And everything about your kingdom is not about hate, but about acceptance, about love, about compassion. Help us always to live with the message that came from you, your son Jesus. And we ask this in Jesus' name, Amen. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
