This weekend we celebrate the 22nd Sunday in Ordinary Time, year A. The theme prevalent in our readings serves to illustrate our struggle in living a Christian life. The call for anyone who wishes to follow Jesus to "deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me," as articulated in today's Gospel, serves as a clear depiction of the challenges and complexities inherent in Christian discipleship.

Entrance Antiphon:

Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I cry to you all the day long.

O Lord, you are good and forgiving,

full of mercy to all who call to you.

(Psalm 86:3, 5)

Psalm 63

My soul is thirsting for you, O Lord my God.

Communion Antiphon:

How great is the goodness, Lord,

that you keep for those who fear you.

(Psalm 31:20)
