Liturgical colour: Green
Today’s Rosary: The Glorous Mysteries
FIRST READING
A reading from the Book of Sirach 3:17-20,28-29
Humble yourself so you will find favour in the sight of the Lord.
My son, perform your tasks in meekness; then you will be loved more than a giver of gifts. The greater you are, the more you must humble yourself, so you will find favour with God. There are many who are noble and renowned, but it is to the humble that he reveals his mysteries. For great is the might of the Lord; he is glorified by the humble. The affliction of the proud has no healing, for a plant of wickedness has taken root in them, though it will not be perceived. The mind of the wise man will ponder the words of the wise, and an attentive ear is the wise man’s desire.
V/ The word of the Lord.
R/ Thanks be to God.
