1ST READING (Sit)

Is 25:6-10
R—A proclamation from the Book of Prophet Isaiah
On this mountain the Lord of hosts will provide for all peoples a feast of
rich food and choice wines, juicy, rich food and pure, choice wines. On
this mountain he will destroy the veil that veils all peoples, the web that
is woven over all nations; he will destroy death forever. The Lord God
will wipe away the tears from every face; the reproach of his people he
will remove from the whole earth; for the Lord has spoken. On that day
it will be said: “Behold our God, to whom we looked to save us! This is
the Lord for whom we looked; let us rejoice and be glad that he has
saved us!” For the hand of the Lord will rest on this mountain.
The Word of the Lord!
All—Thanks be to God!

me repose; beside restful waters he leads me; he refreshes my soul R.
*He guides me in right paths for his name’s sake. Even though I walk in
the dark valley I fear no evil; for you are at my side with your rod and
your staff that give me courage. R.

R—A proclamation from the Letter of Paul to the Philippians
Brothers and sisters:
I know how to live in humble circumstances. I know also how to live with
abundance. In every circumstance and in all things I have learned the
secret of being well fed and of going hungry, of living in abundance
and of being in need. I can do all things in him who strengthens me.
Still, it was kind of you to share in my distress. My God will fully supply
whatever you need, in accord with his glorious riches in Christ Jesus. To
our God and Father, glory forever and ever. Amen!
The Word of the Lord!
All—Thanks be to God!

GOSPEL
Mt 22:1-14
P—The Lord be with you!
All—And with your spirit!
P—A proclamation from the Holy Gospel according to Matthew
All—Glory to you, O Lord!
Jesus again in reply spoke to the chief priests and elders of the people
in parables, saying, “The kingdom of heaven may be likened to a king
who gave a wedding feast for his son. He dispatched his servants to
summon the invited guests to the feast, but they refused to come. A
second time he sent other servants, saying, ‘Tell those invited: “Behold,
I have prepared my banquet, my calves and fattened cattle are killed,
and everything is ready; come to the feast.”’ Some ignored the
invitation and went away, one to his farm, another to his business. The

rest laid hold of his servants, mistreated them, and killed them.
The king was enraged and sent his troops, destroyed those murderers,
and burned their city. Then he said to his servants, ‘The feast is ready,
but those who were invited were not worthy to come. Go out, therefore,
into the main roads and invite to the feast whomever you find.’ The
servants went out into the streets and gathered all they found, bad and
good alike, and the hall was filled with guests. But when the king came
in to meet the guests, he saw a man there not dressed in a wedding
garment. The king said to him, ‘My friend, how is it that you came in
here without a wedding garment?’ But he was reduced to silence. Then
the king said to his attendants, ‘Bind his hands and feet, and cast him
into the darkness outside, where there will be wailing and grinding of
teeth.’ Many are invited, but few are chosen.”
The Gospel of the Lord!
All—Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ!

Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me

And grace my fears relieved
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed
Through many dangers, toils, and snares
I have already come
This grace have brought me safe thus far
And grace will lead me home
