Twenty-second Sunday in Ordinary Time
Seeking humility
Reading I Sirach 3:17–18, 20, 28–29 (humility)
Reading II Hebrews 12:18–19, 22–24a (God the judge; Jesus the mediator)
Gospel Luke 14:1, 7–14 (a lesson in humility)
Key Passage Jesus said, “But when you give a banquet, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, and the blind. And you will be blessed, because they cannot repay you, for you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous.” (Luke 14:13–14)
Adult: Has the hunger for status and influence in the world around you endangered your life as a Christian?
Child: Does it make you a better person to be chosen first for a team or some other honor? Why or why not?
