– 11 Gospel: Mark 10:2-16

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Mark:

Anyone who is not against us is for us. If your hand should cause you to sin, cut it off.

John said to Jesus, ‘Master, we saw a man who is not one of us casting out devils in your name; and because he was not one of us we tried to stop him.’ But Jesus said, ‘You must not stop him: no one who works a miracle in my name is likely to speak evil of me. Anyone who is not against us is for us. ‘If anyone gives you a cup of water to drink just be-cause you belong to Christ, then I tell you solemnly, he will most certainly not lose his reward. ‘But anyone who is an obstacle to bring down one of these little ones who

have faith, would be better thrown into the sea with a great millstone round his neck. And if your hand should cause you to sin, cut it off; it is better for you to enter into life crippled, than to have two hands and go to hell, into the fire that cannot be put out. And if your foot should cause you to sin, cut it off; it is better for you to enter into life lame, than to have two feet and be thrown into hell. And if your eye should cause you to sin, tear it out; it is

PLEASE KEEP THEM IN YOUR PRAYERS

26th Sunday in Ord. Times Reflection

OPEN TO THE SPIRIT’S WORKING! The Spirit of God is present and active

in the world. Wherever we see good, we know that God’s Spirit is at

work. The Spirit works in surprising ways. It is sometimes through the

least important member of a community that the Spirit speaks. May big-

otry and prejudice never blind us to the workings of God in our Church

and in our world.
