Catholic Missal of the day: Saturday, October 12 2024
Saturday of the Twenty-seventh week in Ordinary Time
Letter to the Galatians
3,22-29.Brothers and sisters: Scripture confined all things under the power of sin, that through faith in Jesus Christ the promise might be given to those who believe.
Before faith came, we were held in custody under law, confined for the faith that was to be revealed.
Consequently, the law was our disciplinarian for Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
But now that faith has come, we are no longer under a disciplinarian.
For through faith you are all children of God in Christ Jesus.
For all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ.
There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free person, there is not male and female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.
And if you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham's descendant, heirs according to the promise.
Psalms
105(104),2-3.4-5.6-7.Sing to him, sing his praise,
proclaim all his wondrous deeds.
Glory in his holy name;
rejoice, O hearts that seek the LORD!
Look to the LORD in his strength;
seek to serve him constantly.
Recall the wondrous deeds that he has wrought,
his portents, and the judgments he has uttered.
You descendants of Abraham, his servants,
sons of Jacob, his chosen ones!
He, the LORD, is our God;
throughout the earth his judgments prevail.
Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Luke
11,27-28.While Jesus was speaking, a woman from the crowd called out and said to him, "Blessed is the womb that carried you and the breasts at which you nursed."
He replied, "Rather, blessed are those who hear the word of God and observe it."
St. Wilfrid(Bishop (c. 634-709))
SAINT WILFRID Bishop (c. 634-709) St. Wilfrid was "a quick walker, (and) expert at all good works, with never a sour face." He was trained by Celtic monks in Lindisfarne in the rites and usages of the British Church. He longed for conformity with the Holy See, and at first chance set out for Rome. Upon his return, he governed a monastery in Ripon under the rule of St. Benedict. In 664, St. Wilfrid was consecrated Bishop of Lindisfarne. Five years later, he was transferred to the see of York. He contended with the passions of wicked kings, the cowardice of worldly prelates and the errors of holy men. His authority was usurped and his see partitioned several times. For attempting to free the Church, he was twice exiled and once imprisoned. St. Wilfrid made the Church system universal rather than nationalistic. He experienced moral pain and extreme hardship, but acted like Jesus in everything. He was called to Heaven onOctober 12, 709.
