Posted: 10/1/2016 4:21:38 AM EDT

Twenty-seventh Sunday in Ordinary Time
Lectionary: 141
2 OCT 2016 A.D.

First Reading HAB 1:2-3; 2:2-4

How long, O LORD? I cry for help
but you do not listen!
I cry out to you, “Violence!”
but you do not intervene.
Why do you let me see ruin;
why must I look at misery?
Destruction and violence are before me;
there is strife, and clamorous discord.
Then the LORD answered me and said:
Write down the vision clearly upon the tablets,
so that one can read it readily.
For the vision still has its time,
presses on to fulfillment, and will not disappoint;
if it delays, wait for it,
it will surely come, it will not be late.
The rash one has no integrity;
but the just one, because of his faith, shall live.

Responsorial Psalm PS 95:1-2, 6-7, 8-9

R. If today you hear his voice, harden not your hearts.

Come, let us sing joyfully to the LORD;
let us acclaim the Rock of our salvation.
Let us come into his presence with thanksgiving;
let us joyfully sing psalms to him.
R. If today you hear his voice, harden not your hearts.

Come, let us bow down in worship;
let us kneel before the LORD who made us.
For he is our God,
and we are the people he shepherds, the flock he guides.
R. If today you hear his voice, harden not your hearts.

Oh, that today you would hear his voice:
“Harden not your hearts as at Meribah,
as in the day of Massah in the desert,
Where your fathers tempted me;
they tested me though they had seen my works.”
R. If today you hear his voice, harden not your hearts.

Second Reading 2 TM 1:6-8, 13-14

Beloved:
I remind you, to stir into flame
the gift of God that you have through the imposition of my hands.
For God did not give us a spirit of cowardice
but rather of power and love and self-control.
So do not be ashamed of your testimony to our Lord,
nor of me, a prisoner for his sake;
but bear your share of hardship for the gospel
with the strength that comes from God.

Take as your norm the sound words that you heard from me,
in the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus.
Guard this rich trust with the help of the Holy Spirit
that dwells within us.

Alleluia 1 PT 1:25

R. Alleluia, alleluia.
The word of the Lord remains forever.
This is the word that has been proclaimed to you.
R. Alleluia, alleluia.

Gospel LK 17:5-10

The apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our faith.”
The Lord replied,
“If you have faith the size of a mustard seed,
you would say to this mulberry tree,
‘Be uprooted and planted in the sea,’ and it would obey you.

“Who among you would say to your servant
who has just come in from plowing or tending sheep in the field,
‘Come here immediately and take your place at table’?
Would he not rather say to him,
‘Prepare something for me to eat.
Put on your apron and wait on me while I eat and drink.
You may eat and drink when I am finished’?
Is he grateful to that servant because he did what was commanded?
So should it be with you.
When you have done all you have been commanded,
say, ‘We are unprofitable servants;
we have done what we were obliged to do.’”

‘Everything is possible for anyone who has faith.’ The words are Christ’s. How is it that you don’t say to him with the Apostles: ‘Increase my faith!’? -St. Josemaria Escriva

How Long OH Lord?

https://cruxnow.com/global-church/2016/10/01/ghana-man-attacks-churches-rome-motive-unclear/

Several churches in Rome where attacked. Artman can probably offer more about the loss of these but most sculptures found in churches today are poured replicas.

A priest finally stopped the man responsible.

This world is so lost that there is no fear of the wrath of God.

It's not so much an attack on the irreplaceable art in as much as it is an attack on our faith. Some of the comments are telling. This world is full of hatred and people who will act on those feelings without regard for anyone but themselves.

Sad, very sad, angelfire.

the depravity of humankind is telling.

as we say so often: "Without God, anything is possible." and this is what we get.

look what the savages are doing to churches, monasteries, rectories, in the Holy Land.

BUT--there is something glorious afoot in these outrages.

WE.
ARE.
WINNING!

THAT is why they are so hateful, THAT is why they cannot stand!

"VIVA CRISTO REY!"

Link to a GD post about the attack of Santa Maria Maggiore. I attended mass there in May while visiting Italy. Had to go through a Carabinieri check point complete with metal detectors. Shame that the care bears didn't shoot this guy.

What a humbling and challenging gospel reading this Sunday.

For those of us who go to the Extraordinary Form:

20th Sunday After Pentacost

INTROIT

Dan. 3:31,29,35; Ps. 188:1

All that Thou hast done to us, O Lord, Thou hast done in true judgment: because we have sinned against Thee, and we have not obeyed Thy commandments: but give glory to Thy Name, and deal with us according to the multitude of Thy mercy. (Psalm) Blessed are the undefiled in the way who walk in the law of the Lord. Glory be to the Father

COLLECT

Be appeased, O Lord, we beseech Thee, and bestow on Thy faithful pardon and peace, cleansing them from every sin and letting them feel secure in Thy service. Through our Lord.

EPISTLE

Eph. 5:15-21

Brethren, See how you walk circumspectly, not as unwise, but as wise redeeming the time, because the days are evil. Wherefore, become not unwise, but understanding what is the will of God. And be not drunk with wine, wherein is luxury but be ye filled with the Holy Spirit, speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns, and spiritual canticles, singing and making melody in your hearts to the Lord, giving thanks always for all things, in the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to God and the Father being subject one to another in the fear of Christ.

GRADUAL

Ps. 144:15,16

The eyes of all hope in Thee, O Lord and Thou givest them meat in due season. Thou openest Thy hand, and fillest every living creature with Thy blessing.

ALLELUIA

Ps. 107:2

Alleluia, alleluia. My heart is ready, O God my heart is ready: I will sing, and will give praise to Thee, my glory. Alleluia.

GOSPEL

Jn. 4:46-53

At that time, there was a certain ruler whose son was sick at Capharnaum. He having heard that Jesus was come from Judæa into Galilee, went to Him, and prayed Him to come down, and heal his son for he was at the point of death. Jesus therefore said to him: Unless you see signs and wonders, you believe not. The ruler saith to Him: Lord, come down before my son die Jesus saith to him: "Go on thy way, thy son liveth." The man believed the word which Jesus had said to him, and went his way. And as he was going down, his servants met him, and they brought word, saying that his son lived. He asked therefore of them the hour wherein he grew better. And they said to him: Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever.left him. The father therefore knew that it was at the same hour that Jesus said to him: Thy son liveth and himself believed, and his whole house.

OFFERTORY

Ps. 136:1

Upon the rivers of Babylon there we sat, and wept; when we remembered thee, O Sion.

SECRET

May these mysteries, we beseech Thee, O Lord, provide us with a Heavenly remedy: and purge our hearts from their vices. Through our Lord.

PREFACE

Preface of the Most Holy Trinity

It it truly meet and just, right and for our salvation, that we should at all times, and in all places, give thanks unto Thee, O holy Lord, Father almighty, everlasting God; Who, together with Thine only-begotten Son, and the Holy Ghost, art one God, one Lord: not in the oneness of a single Person, but in the Trinity of one substance. For what we believe by Thy revelation of Thy glory, the same do we believe of Thy Son, the same of the Holy Ghost, without difference or separation. So that in confessing the true and everlasting Godhead, distinction in persons, unity in essence, and equality in majesty may be adored. Which the Angels and Archangels, the Cherubim also and Seraphim do praise: who cease not daily to cry out, with one voice saying:

COMMUNION

Ps. 118:49-50

Be Thou mindful of Thy word to Thy servant, O Lord, in which Thou hast given me hope: this hath comforted me in my humiliation.

POSTCOMMUNION

That we may be made worthy, O Lord, of these holy gifts: make us, we beseech Thee, ever to obey Thy commandments. Through our Lord.
