Readings of the Day
RB: Ch 14 The Celebration of Vigils on the Anniversary of Saints
Mass: 2 Tm 14:10-17b; Resp Ps 145; Lk 10:1-9
Your friends make known, O Lord, the glorious splendor of your Kingdom.
THE LORD JESUS APPOINTED SEVENTY-TWO DISCIPLES WHOM HE SENT AHEAD OF HIM IN PAIRS TO EVERY TOWN AND PLACE HE INTENDED TO VISIT.
(Lk 10:1)
We celebrate Saint Luke the Evangelist, physician and patron saint of artists. We pray then, that Saint Luke intercede for all those who work in the medical field, and for all artists too. May they go about their work and service so that in all things God may be glorified (1 Pt 4:11/RB 57:9).
Beloved brothers, our Lord and Savior sometimes gives us instruction by words and sometimes by actions. His very deeds are his commands; and whenever he acts silently he is teaching us what we should do. For example, he sends his disciples out to preach two by two, because the precept of charity is twofold-love of God and love of one's neighbor.
(From a homily on the gospels by Saint Gregory the Great, pope, in Office of Readings, October 18)
SAINT LUKE,
SAINT JOSEPH,
PRAY FOR US.
