25th Sunday after Pentecost 2023
The Introit and other prayers of this Mass are repeated every Sunday in the weeks approaching the conclusion of the liturgical year.  The Church’s prayer gives us hope for our impending judgment.  The Collect reminds us that we must not simply rely on words, but we must also act.  A missionary is limited in how many people he can reach, but a contemplative’s reach is limitless because in his prayer he is close to God.  Our enemies seek to change the truth and our children must be aware of these lies and hold fast to their principles.
