Twenty-sixth Sunday in
Ordinary Time
Ezekiel 18:25-28
Psalm 25
Philippians 2:1-11 or 2:1-5
Matthew 21:28-32
Introduction to the Liturgy of the Word
Ezekiel exhorts his audience to turn back to God, that
in so doing they will save their lives. Jesus tells the
chief priests and the elders that those who obey God
will enter the kingdom of God. Paul suggests a model
in Jesus, who humbled himself to do his Father’s will.
Let us listen to the word of God, asking for God’s
mercy for our failings and God’s grace to change our
minds and hearts.
What righteous act can I do this week that I have previ-
ously expressed reluctance to do?

Ezequiel 18:25-28

Filipenses 2:1-11 ó 2:1-5
Mateo 21:28-32
Introducción a la Liturgia de la Palabra
Ezequiel exhorta a su audiencia a volverse a Dios para
que salven su vida. Jesús les dice a los sumos sacer-
dotes y a los ancianos que aquellos que obedecen a
Dios entrarán en el Reino de Dios. Pablo sugiere un
modelo en Jesús, que se humilló a sí mismo para hacer
la voluntad del Padre. Escuchemos la palabra de Dios
y pidámosle su misericordia para con nuestras faltas, y
su gracia para cambiar nuestros pensamientos y nuestro
corazón.

RECEPTION OF HOLY COMMUNION
The safety of all is our utmost concern. Because of
this, we are not tired of reminding everyone to observe
the safety guidelines. We strongly ask everyone to
receive Holy Communion in the hand and must leave
their mask on when approaching the priest; after re-
ceiving the Sacred Host, move to the side, lower the
mask and consume the Sacred Host, then put back the
mask and return to your seat.
RECEPCIÓN DE LA SAGRADA COMUNIÓN
La seguridad de todos es primordial. Por eso le recor-
damos que todos deberán observar las reglas de seguri-
dad. Le rogamos que todos reciban la Sagrada Comu-
nión en la mano. Deberán permanecer con la máscara
hasta llegar al frente del sacerdote. Después de acep-
tar la Hostia Sagrada, moverse para el lado antes de
quitar la máscara para consumir la Hostia Sagrada.
Inmediatamente, colocar la máscara y regresar a su
asiento.
MUSIC MINISTRY

lines, the Adult Choir will resume rehearsals on
Wednesday evening September 30th at 7:30 p.m. in the
