Thirtieth Sunday in Ordinary Time October 27, 2019

Today’s Gospel is the famous

parable of the

Pharisee and Publican.

What the Pharisee could not

see and the Publican could

was that all goodness and all

grace come from God! The

Publican in humility called out

for God’s mercy while the

Pharisee thought that his

good actions justified him

before God. The good we do

is God’s grace working in us

and we do it with humility and

gratitude for God’s love.

What good works can you do this week that will give

witness to God’s grace and love and mercy in your

life?

Friday 8:30am - 5:30pm
