The Liturgy of the Word

First reading
(Wis 12:13, 16-19)

A reading from the book of Wisdom.

THERE is no god besides you who have
the care of all, that you need show you
have not unjustly condemned.
For your might is the source of justice;
your mastery over all things makes you
lenient to all. For you show your might
when the perfection of your power is
disbelieved; and in those who know you,
you rebuke temerity.
But though you are master of might, you
judge with clemency, and with much
lenience you govern us; for power,
whenever you will, attends you.
And you taught your people, by these
deeds, that those who are just must be
kind; and you gave your children good

Second reading
(Rom 8:26-27)

A reading from the letter of Saint Paul to the

Romans.

BROTHERS and sisters:

The Spirit comes to the aid of our
weakness; for we do not know how to pray
as we ought, but the Spirit himself
intercedes with inexpressible groanings.
And the one who searches hearts knows
what is the intention of the Spirit, because
he intercedes for the holy ones according
to God's will.

-The Word of the Lord-

All: Thanks be to God.

Gospel
(Mt 13:24-30)

Priest: The Lord be with you.

All: and with your Spirit.
Priest: A reading from the Holy Gospel
according to Matthew.
All: Glory to you, O Lord.
JESUS proposed another parable
to the crowds, saying:
"The kingdom of heaven may be
likened to a man who sowed good
seed in his field. While everyone
was asleep his enemy came and
sowed weeds all through the
wheat, and then went off.

When the crop grew and bore

fruit, the weeds appeared as well.
The slaves of the householder
came to him and said, 'Master,
9
abeglish9705@gmail.com
Roman Missal: 16th Sunday in Ordinary Time

did you not sow good seed in your

field? Where have the weeds
come from?' He answered, 'An
enemy has done this.' His slaves
said to him, 'Do you want us to go
and pull them up?'

He replied, 'No, if you pull up

the weeds you might uproot the
wheat along with them. Let them
grow together until harvest; then
at harvest time I will say to the
harvesters, "First collect the
weeds and tie them in bundles for
burning; but gather the wheat into
my barn."

-The Gospel of the Lord-

All: Praise to you, O Lord Jesus Christ.

Profession of Faith
Priest/ All:
I believe in one God, the Father almighty,
maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible
and invisible.
I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Only
Begotten Son of God, born of the Father
before all ages. God from God, Light from
Light, true God from true God, begotten, not
made, consubstantial with the Father;
through him all things were made. For us men
and for our salvation he came down from
heaven,
and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the
Virgin Mary, and became man.
For our sake he was crucified under Pontius
Pilate, he suffered death and was buried,
and rose again on the third day in accordance
with the Scriptures. He ascended into heaven
and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
He will come again in glory to judge the living
and the dead and his kingdom will have no
end.

11
abeglish9705@gmail.com
Roman Missal: 16th Sunday in Ordinary Time

I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver

of life, who proceeds from the Father and the
Son, who with the Father and the Son is
adored and glorified, who has spoken through
the prophets.
I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic
Church. I confess one Baptism for the
forgiveness of sins and I look forward to the
resurrection of the dead
and the life of the world to come.
Amen.
