The Lectionary for Mass— Twentieth Sunday in Ordinary Time First Reading: Wisdom built her house. She prepared a meal. She sent her maidens to invite guests from the hills overlooking the city. The invitation to attend Wisdom’s banquet goes out not to the rich or wealthy, not to people who think they understand everything, and not to pretentious, the arrogant. No, Wisdom instructs her maidens to invite the simple and those who have yet to encounter Wisdom’s truth. These are the people she invites with the one word “Come,” the word Jesus will also use to invite his disciples to follow him and share in his Wisdom. Responsorial Psalm 34: What more fitting a response to the First Reading than the refrain which invites us to “taste and see” the Lord’s goodness! We also prayed this psalm of thanksgiving as the Responsorial Psalm last Sunday. Our soul glories in the Lord who saves us from sin and delivers us from fear! May the psalm lead our hearts and minds to reflect on the bounteous feast of the Eucharist. In the Eucharistic feast we partake of Christ’s Body and Blood, and share in his divine Wisdom. Second Reading: In the Second Reading, the author of Ephesians contrasts foolish persons with wise persons and provides us here a connection the First Reading in which Wisdom desires those who participate in her banquet renounce foolishness and embrace a life of Wisdom. A life lived according to Wisdom is a life lived in the Spirit. It is a life of prayer—of singing psalms and hymns, of playing instruments. It is a life lived in thanks and praise to God for all God does for us in Jesus Christ. Gospel: Our Gospel from the Bread of Life discourses begins with a repetition of the verse on which last Sunday’s Gospel ended, reminding us that Christ is the “living bread” from heaven. The bread he gives us is truly his flesh for the life and sake of the world. The Jews do not understand how it is possible that Jesus can give his flesh for people to eat. Christ solemnly teaches that his flesh is “true food” and his blood “true drink.” Eternal life and participation in the Resurrection awaits those who feast on his food. When we participate in the Eucharist and eat Christ’s Body and drink his Blood, we partake of his Wisdom and choose to forsake foolishness. Resource from SOURCEBOOK FOR SUNDAYS, SEASONS, AND

Discipleship Invitation Recently, Archbishop Sartain sent a letter to all parishioners. He asked us to reflect on the role the Catholic faith plays in our lives, the spiritual growth required to become a better disciple of Christ and the steps we need to take to get there. He posed a number of requests for us to consider as we take those next steps in our spiritual development and bringing others to know Christ’s love. Those requests were:
Spend time in quiet prayer each day welcoming Jesus more fully into your life. Ask yourself daily: To
whom is Christ calling me to bring his love, mercy, forgiveness and hope? Prayerfully ask the Holy Spirit to guide your actions.
Join your parish community each Sunday for Mass, and consider preparing for Mass by reflecting on
the Sunday readings. Families could do this together. You can find the Mass readings at the U. S. Catholic Bishops website (www.usccb.org).
Be a missionary disciple of Jesus in your own family, workplace, neighborhood, and parish community. Thank God for all the blessings in your life. Ask yourself: How am I being called to serve as Christ served? And where can I find Christ in each person I encounter today? I’m hopeful all of us take an opportunity to truly reflect on these.
