Twenty-sixth Sunday in Ordinary Time (A) Ezekiel 18:25-28 | Psalm 25:4-5, 6-7, 8-9 | Philippians 2:1-11 OR 2:1-5 | Matthew 21:28-32  This Twenty-Sixth Sunday in Ordinary Time reminds us that authentic faith is not measured by what we say, how we appear, or what we have done in the past, but by how we live today. God invites us to let go of the past, turn back to Him when we fail, and show our faith through humble obedience and concrete action.

Twenty-fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time (A)  On this Twenty-Fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time, the prophet Isaiah reminds us that God is always ready to show us His grace. St. Paul encourages us to make Christ the center of our lives, while our Lord, in today’s Gospel from Matthew, continually invites us to labor in His vineyard and take part in His work.
Twenty-fourth Sunday in Ordinary Time (A) Sirach 27:30—28:7 | Psalm 103:1-2, 3-4, 9-10, 11-12 | Romans 14:7-9 | Matthew 18:21-35  Today’s readings for the Twenty-fourth Sunday in Ordinary Time raise a question, “Do we forgive first, so that God has to forgive us?” or “Does God forgive us first in order to empower us to forgive others?” Whatever the answer, it’s all about love.
Twenty-third Sunday in Ordinary Time (A) Ezekiel 33:7-9 | Psalm 95:1-2, 6-7, 8-9 | Romans 13:8-10 | Matthew 18:15-20  A blessed Sunday to one and all! This is that special time when you honestly don’t know what to ask from the Lord anymore. Lord, please remove the haze! But then again, if we pray for rain to wash out the air pollutants the whole country might turn into one giant swimming pool. At this point, Lord, we surrender. Ikaw na po ang bahala. We trust Your weather department. The Scriptures for the Twenty-Third Sunday in Ordinary Time remind us that we have a responsibility to speak up when we see sin and evil, to look after the good and well-being of others, and to help those who have gone astray find their way back and be reconciled with the Church.
