Readings for the 16th Sunday of the Year (C)

1st Reading:  Abraham entertains heavenly guests, just as Martha and Mary entertain a heavenly guest in the Gospel

Responsorial Psalm:  The just will live in the presence of the Lord
 ...a hint of heaven, where we will be God's guests, for ever

2nd Reading:  Jesus himself is hope....our hope in this life...and our hope of a heavenly life with him

Gospel:  A heavenly guest wants to spend time with us each day ....in prayer

Reflection: Martha, Mary ...and Pope Francis

Prayer:
Jesus, help me love you like Mary ....listening to your words each day in prayer
and help me serve you like Martha ....serving you each day in the poor
