Opening Prayer
Loving God, you have taught us that faith means knowing that
something is real even if we do not see it, we pray that we keep our faith only
in you.… Amen
=== 7:14 - 7:24 ====
Liturgy of the Word
(Hebrews 11:1-2,8-12)This reading talks about FAITH. Can anyone tell me what faith is? <discuss – Faith is believing> We will hear about a man who had a lot of FAITH in God. Let’s listen closely and see if we can hear the message God wants us to hear today.
Today’s first reading
is from the New Testament letter to the Hebrews 11:1-2, 8-12
Faith
11 Faith
means being sure of the things we hope for. And faith means knowing that
something is real even if we do not see it. 2 People
who lived in the past became famous because of faith.
8 It was by
faith Abraham obeyed God’s call to go to another place that God promised to
give him. He left his own country, not knowing where he was to go.9 It was by
faith that he lived in the country God promised to give him. He lived there
like a visitor who did not belong. He lived in tents with Isaac and Jacob, who
had received that same promise from God. 10 Abraham
was waiting for the city[a]that has
real foundations—the city planned and built by God.
11 He was too old to have children, and Sarah was
not able to have children. It was by faith that Abraham was made able to become
a father. Abraham trusted God to do what he had promised.[b] 12 This man
was so old that he was almost dead. But from him came as many descendants as
there are stars in the sky. They are as many as the grains of sand on the
seashore that cannot be counted.
This is the word of the Lord, …
Responsorial Psalm
O Lord, hear my prayer.
Introducing the Gospel
Today’s Gospel reading comes from the book of St. Luke. (Luke 12:35-40) If you were up late and waiting for someone to come home, what would you do? <leave the lights on> Would you do that if you didn’t think that they were coming?> Jesus has a teaching story (a parable) for us to hear today about servants who kept their lamps burning while they waited for their master to come home. Let’s see what Jesus said about keeping your lights ready for him.
With Alleluia!!, let’s welcome the Gospel.
Alle-lu
Alle-lu Alle-lu Alle-lluia,
Lets praise the Lord,
Alle-lu
Alle-lu Alle-lu Alle-lluia,
Lets praise the Lord,
Alle-luia,
Lets Praise the Lord
Alle-luia,
Lets Praise the Lord
Alle..lluia
Lets praise the Lord!!!
Silently say:”
Cleanse my heart and my lips, almighty God, that I may worthily proclaim your
Holy Gospel to your little children.
The Lord be with You,
AND with your Spirit
The Gospel reading is from the book of...” Luke
12:35-40 (ICB)
Always Be Ready
35 “Be ready! Be dressed for service and have your
lamps shining. 36 Be like servants who are waiting
for their master to come home from a wedding party. The master comes and
knocks. The servants immediately open the door for him.37 Those
servants will be blessed when their master comes home, because he sees that his
servants are ready and waiting for him. I tell you the truth. The master will
dress himself to serve and tell the servants to sit at the table. Then the
master will serve them. 38 Those servants might
have to wait until midnight or later for their master. But they will be happy
when he comes in and finds them still waiting.
39 “Remember this: If the owner of the house knew
what time a thief was coming, then the owner would not allow the thief to enter
his house. 40 So you also must be ready! The Son of
Man will come at a time when you don’t expect him!”
“The Gospel of the Lord”,
“Praise to you Lord Jesus Christ”

Gospel Reflection.
Say: Today’s Gospel reading comes from the book of St. Luke. (Luke 12:35-40) If you were up late and waiting for someone to come home, what would you do? <leave the lights on> Would you do that if you didn’t think that they were coming?> Jesus has a teaching story (a parable) for us to hear today about servants who kept their lamps burning while they waited for their master to come home. Let’s see what Jesus said about keeping your lights ready for him.
Ask the Holy Spirit to guide you to do the right thing in the coming week.
Profession of our faith
I believe in God the Father, Almighty,
Creator of heaven and earth:
And in Jesus Christ, his only begotten Son, our Lord: --bow down--
Who was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit,
born of the Virgin Mary:
Suffered under Pontius Pilate;
was crucified, died and was buried:
He descended into hell:
And the third day He rose again from the dead: He ascended into
heaven,
and seated at the right hand of God the Father Almighty:
From there He shall come again to judge the living and the dead:
I believe in the Holy Spirit:
the holy catholic church:
the communion of saints:
The forgiveness of sins:
The resurrection of the body:
And the life everlasting.
Amen.
==== 7:24 - 7:26 ====
