Reading 1 2 Kings 4:8-11, 14-16aOne day Elisha came to Shunem,where there was a woman of influence, who urged him to dine with her. Afterward, whenever he passed by, he used to stop there to dine.So she said to her husband, “I know that Elisha is a holy man of God.Since he visits us often, let us arrange a little room on the roofand furnish it for him with a bed, table, chair, and lamp,so that when he comes to us he can stay there.”Sometime later Elisha arrived and stayed in the room overnight.Later Elisha asked, “Can something be done for her?”His servant Gehazi answered, “Yes!She has no son, and her husband is getting on in years.”Elisha said, “Call her.”When the woman had been called and stood at the door,Elisha promised, “This time next yearyou will be fondling a baby son.”Reading II Romans 6:3-4, 8-11Brothers and sisters:Are you unaware that we who were baptized into Christ Jesuswere baptized into his death?We were indeed buried with him through baptism into death,so that, just as Christ was raised from the deadby the glory of the Father,we too might live in newness of life.If, then, we have died with Christ,we believe that we shall also live with him.We know that Christ, raised from the dead, dies no more;death no longer has power over him.As to his death, he died to sin once and for all;as to his life, he lives for God.Consequently, you too must think of yourselves as dead to sinand living for God in Christ Jesus.Gospel Matthew 10:37-42Jesus said to his apostles:“Whoever loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me,and whoever loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me;and whoever does not take up his crossand follow after me is not worthy of me.Whoever finds his life will lose it,and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.""Whoever receives you receives me,and whoever receives me receives the one who sent me.Whoever receives a prophet because he is a prophetwill receive a prophet's reward,and whoever receives a righteous manbecause he is a righteous manwill receive a righteous man's reward.And whoever gives only a cup of cold waterto one of these little ones to drinkbecause the little one is a disciple—amen, I say to you, he will surely not lose his reward.”

One of the great gifts that we have as priests  is that we are invited to journey with people  in some of the most tender and vulnerable  moments of their life. In particular, when people get sick, and when they get terminally sick,  they invite us into that very vulnerable part of their life,  and they share the most powerful insights  and the most tender moments ever shared.

Thirteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time

Father and Annie, in light of all the readings this weekend, stress the importance of hospitality in the life of a Christian, who is baptized into Christ.  By loving one another, we 'worship' God who is present in our brothers and sisters.

Monsignor Watkins speaks of the essence love in today's homily.

The Magic of the Heart. A doctor told the parents that their child would be born with permanent defects and recommended termination. The parents came to me for advice. I told them that there would be sacrifices. Yet, I am not sure how or why it works, but when you open your home and heart...

Thirteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time (A)

Before we can know how to live, we must know to whom we belong. From Surrender to hospitality

Rev. Dr. Larry Hayward preaches on the Thirteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time. The Scripture passage is Exodus 32:7-14.

Homily, Thirteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time, June 28, 2026, by Pastor, Fr. Jeff VonLehmen

Delivered by Reinaldy and Margareth from the Parish of Sacred Heart of Jesus Cathedral and Svara Nirmala and Lukitananda from the Parish of Our Lady of Assumption Mamajang in the Archdiocese of Makassar, Indonesia. 2 Kings 4: 8-11.14-16a; Rs psalm 89: 2-3.16-17.18-19; Romans 6: 3-4.8-11; Matthew 10: 37-42.HAPPY TO CARRY THE CROSS The theme for our meditation today is: Happy to Carrythe Cross. Naturally, we are happy because there are things or happenings thatare good and pleasant. However, the cross is a very shameful and painful thing.The cross signifies the most severe punishment. So if we become happy to carrythe cross, this is an irony. There is a lot of irony and  something doesn't make sense to us aboutJesus Christ. The coming of the Son of God into the world and becoming JesusChrist is beyond our common sense. His choice to obey the Father's will, bycarrying the disgraceful cross and dying on it, cannot enter into our normalunderstanding. He is truly God but He has such a bad reputation. However, Jesus himself had proven that through thecross the best form of love is manifested. The cross is a symbol of sacrificeand suffering that the Lord Jesus had put on us. His own experience is enoughto teach us that we will obtain happiness after bearing our crosses in thisworld. This teaching also suits the understanding of most people in the worldin their belief that there is light after dark, there is success afterstruggle, there is money after working hard. With this concept in mind, it is appropriate for us tohave a positive understanding and attitude about the cross. We are invited onthis Sunday to be happy in carrying out whatever cross we have, however heavyit may be. There are various crosses with different weights. The sins andmistakes we have committed are certainly burdens of the cross itself and theyhave their own weight. They really affect our lives. The cross in the form of sacrifice our personalinterests and doing mortification also have its weight that often makes usdepressed. For example Jesus' command that we should love Him more than our ownparents and brothers and sisters, and that we can lose our lives because webelieve in him, these are obviously heavy crosses that we bear. The command tobe generous and do good, such as welcoming the Lord, a messenger of God, andour neighbors, is also a burden we must bear. Welcoming others, especially the strangers and ourenemies, is also our heavy burden. But in the name of love, we must sacrificeour interests and freedom so we can meet and provide services to them. All ofthis is our cross. And there is a wise advice for us is that we should be happywith these crosses. Let'spray. In the name of the Father... O Lord Jesus, may the celebration of thisSunday give us encouragement to happily carry our crosses. Our Father who artin heaven ... In the name of the Father ...

Homily from the Thirteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time The necessary risk we must take. Jesus calls us to love Him first. To place Him ahead of every other goal or desire in our lives. In order to answer the question "What are you living for?", we have to take the risk of knowing what we are NOT living for. Mass Readings from June 28, 2026:2 Kings 4:8-11, 14-16a Psalm 89:2-3, 16-17, 18-19Romans 6:3-4, 8-11 Matthew 10:37-42

Read OnlineJesus said to his apostles: “Whoever loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me, and whoever loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me; and whoever does not take up his cross and follow after me is not worthy of me.” Matthew 10:37–38When a scribe approached Jesus and asked Him which of the commandments was the greatest, He replied: “‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.' The second is this: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no other commandment greater than these” (Mark 12:30–31).Today's Gospel offers a similar teaching: We must love God above all else—even more than father, mother, son, or daughter. By contrasting love for God with love for family, Jesus is not diminishing familial affection; rather, He is revealing that the only way to truly love others is by loving God first.Saint Thomas Aquinas teaches: “God must be loved above all things and before all others out of charity, for He is loved as the source of happiness, whereas our neighbor is loved as one who shares in that happiness along with us” (Summa Theologiae II-II, Q.26, A.2). In other words, God must be loved first because He is the ultimate cause and source of beatitude—the only true happiness. Though we are called to love our families and our neighbors, Christian charity dictates that we love them in relation to God—as fellow recipients of divine happiness.One reason this Gospel is challenging is that our natural affections, though good, must be transformed by divine charity. It is natural to love our parents and children—God designed us with these affections. Even animals instinctively care for their offspring. But Jesus calls us to something higher: a love that is perfected by divine charity, transcending mere emotional attachment or duty. His teaching does not negate natural love; rather, it purifies, elevates, and directs it toward the highest good—God Himself.When Jesus speaks of loving “father or mother” or “son or daughter” more than Him, He is addressing the inner conflict we sometimes experience in our emotions. When natural affection is not transformed by spiritual charity, the love we offer another can do more harm than good. Disordered affection replaces the ultimate good—God—with the lesser good of emotional attachment and human consolation. The real danger arises when our loved ones stray from God's will, and we, out of misguided affection, affirm them in their error, thereby confirming them in a state lacking true beatitude.The foundation of true love is this: God alone is the source of perfect happiness, for us and for our loved ones. Our belief in God transforms the way we love others. No longer do we merely seek their earthly comfort or emotional well-being; rather, we direct them to the eternal Good—God Himself—who alone fulfills every longing.When we love God first, all our relationships are purified. Instead of loving others with human affection alone, we love them with the very love of God, seeking their ultimate good: eternal life in Him. This purified love does not exclude human affection; rather, it elevates and directs it, ensuring that our love is not merely sentimental but truly transformative through divine charity.Reflect today on those closest to you—those whom God calls you to love with the highest form of love. Are your affections rightly ordered, or do they sometimes compete with the charity God desires to instill in you? If so, turn your heart to God. Seek to love Him above all else. Let Him become the object of your deepest love and desire. When God is first, His love will transform you from within, enabling you to love others not just with natural affection, but with the very love of Christ, leading them to the eternal joy of union with Him. Lord of perfect charity, Your love is pure, holy, and beyond all understanding—so vast, so encompassing, that I will never fathom its depths. Draw me into this love, O Lord, that I may love You above all things. From that love, let the charity of Your Sacred Heart flow through me to others, so that in loving them, I love You. Jesus, I trust in You.Photo by form PxHereSource: Free RSS feed from catholic-daily-reflections.com — Copyright © 2026 My Catholic Life! Inc. All rights reserved.

Full Text of Readings Thirteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time Lectionary: 97 The Saint of the day is Saint Irenaeus Saint Irenaeus' Story The Church is fortunate that Saint Irenaeus was involved in many of its controversies in the second century. He was a student, well trained no doubt, with great patience in investigating, tremendously protective of apostolic teaching, but prompted more by a desire to win over his opponents than to prove them in error. As bishop of Lyons he was especially concerned with the Gnostics, who took their name from the Greek word for “knowledge.” Claiming access to secret knowledge imparted by Jesus to only a few disciples, their teaching was attracting and confusing many Christians. After thoroughly investigating the various Gnostic sects and their “secret,” Saint Irenaeus showed to what logical conclusions their tenets led. These he contrasted with the teaching of the apostles and the text of Holy Scripture, giving us, in five books, a system of theology of great importance to subsequent times. Moreover, his work, widely used and translated into Latin and Armenian, gradually ended the influence of the Gnostics. The circumstances and details about his death, like those of his birth and early life in Asia Minor, are not at all clear. However in 2022, Pope Francis named Saint Irenaeus a Doctor of the Church. Reflection A deep and genuine concern for other people will remind us that the discovery of truth is not to be a victory for some and a defeat for others. Unless all can claim a share in that victory, truth itself will continue to be rejected by the losers, because it will be regarded as inseparable from the yoke of defeat. And so, confrontation, controversy and the like might yield to a genuine united search for God's truth and how it can best be served.Saint of the Day, Copyright Franciscan Media

Because nearly my whole life is a nay-saying to God, my whole life must be repentance.
