Friday of the Ninth week in Ordinary Time

Second Letter to Timothy

You have followed my teaching, way of life, purpose, faith, patience, love, endurance,
persecutions, and sufferings, such as happened to me in Antioch, Iconium, and Lystra, persecutions that I endured. Yet from all these things the Lord delivered me.
In fact, all who want to live religiously in Christ Jesus will be persecuted.
But wicked people and charlatans will go from bad to worse, deceivers and deceived.
But you, remain faithful to what you have learned and believed, because you know from whom you learned it,
and that from infancy you have known (the) sacred scriptures, which are capable of giving you wisdom for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.
All scripture is inspired by God and is useful for teaching, for refutation, for correction, and for training in righteousness,
so that one who belongs to God may be competent, equipped for every good work.

Psalms

Though my persecutors and my foes are many,
I turn not away from your decrees.
Permanence is your word's chief trait;
Each of your just ordinances is everlasting.
Princes persecute me without cause
But my heart stands in awe of your word.
Those who love your law have great peace,
And for them there is no stumbling block.
I wait for your salvation, O LORD,
And your commands I fulfill.
I keep your precepts and your decrees,
For all my ways are before you.

Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Mark

As Jesus was teaching in the temple area he said, "How do the scribes claim that the Messiah is the son of David?
David himself, inspired by the holy Spirit, said: 'The Lord said to my lord, "Sit at my right hand until I place your enemies under your feet."'
David himself calls him 'lord'; so how is he his son?" (The) great crowd heard this with delight.

St. Boniface(Bishop and Martyr († 754) - Memorial)

ST. BONIFACEBishop, Martyr( 754) St. Boniface was born in Crediton, Devonshire, England, around 673. He was inspired by missionries who stayed at his father's house and entered the Exminster monastery. After failing to convert the pagans in Holland, he went to Rome and obtained the Pope's blessing. He returned with papal authority and evangelized Germanic tribes. Evangelization was a slow and dangerous task. St. Boniface's life was in constant peril and his flock was often reduced to abject poverty by wandering robber bands. Through God's grace, his courage never flagged. He began in Bavaria and Thuringia before going to Friesland, Hesse and Saxony. He frequently demolished pagan temples and raised churches on the sites. St. Boniface endeavored to make every object of idolatry contribute in some way to the glory of God. On one occasion, an immense oak tree used for rituals to Jupiter was blessed and used to build a church dedicated to the Prince of the Apostles. He was then recalled to Rome, consecrated bishop, and returned to extend and organize the rising German Church. With diligent care, he reformed abuses among the clergy and established religious houses. At length, feeling his infirmities increase, St. Boniface appointed a successor to his monastery and set out to convert another pagan tribe. While waiting to administer the Sacrament of Confirmation to some newly-baptized Christians, a pagan group arrived armed with swords and spears. His attendants would have opposed them, but the Bishop said, "Let us put our hope in God." Scarcely had he finished speaking when the pagans fell upon them and martyred all fifty-two.
