神父講道 – 聖路加 (週三) (2017年10月18日)

(聖路加)

恭讀聖路加福音 10:1-9

那時候,耶穌選定了七十二人,派遣他們兩個兩個地在他前面,到他自己將要去的各城各地去。
耶穌對他們說:「莊稼多而工人少,所以你們應當求莊稼的主人,派遣工人來,收割他的莊稼。你們去吧!看,我派遣你們猶如羔羊往狼群中。你們不要帶錢囊,不要帶口袋,也不要帶鞋;路上也不要向人請安。不論進了那一家,先說:願這一家平安!那裏如有和平之子,你們的和平就要停留在他身上;否則,仍歸於你們。你們要住在那一家,吃喝他們所供給的,因為工人自當有他的工資;你們不可從這一家遷移到另一家。不論進了那座城,人若接納你們,給你們擺上什麼,你們就吃什麼。要醫治城中的病人,並向他們說:天主的國已經臨近你們了。」

—上主的話。

(Saint Luke, Evangelist)

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Luke 10:1-9

After this the Lord appointed seventy others, and sent them on ahead of him, two by two, into every town and place where he himself was about to come.  And he said to them, “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few; pray therefore the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.  Go your way; behold, I send you out as lambs in the midst of wolves. 4 Carry no purse, no bag, no sandals; and salute no one on the road.  Whatever house you enter, first say, `Peace be to this house!’  And if a son of peace is there, your peace shall rest upon him; but if not, it shall return to you.  And remain in the same house, eating and drinking what they provide, for the laborer deserves his wages; do not go from house to house. 8 Whenever you enter a town and they receive you, eat what is set before you;  heal the sick in it and say to them, `The kingdom of God has come near to you.’

神父講道 – 聖依納爵安提約基亞 (週二) (2017年10月17日)

恭讀聖若望福音 12:24-26

那時候,耶穌對門徒說:「我實實在在告訴你們:一粒麥子如果不落在地裏死了,仍只是一粒;如果死了,才結出許多子粒來。愛惜自己性命的,必要喪失性命;在現世憎恨自己性命的,必要保存性命入於永生。誰若事奉我,就當跟隨我;如此,我在那裡,我的僕人也要在那裡;誰若事奉我,我父必要尊重他。」

—上主的話。

(Saint Ignatius of Antioch, Bishop and Martyr)

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to John 12:24-26

Amen, amen, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains just a grain of wheat; but if it dies, it produces much fruit. Whoever loves his life*loses it, and whoever hates his life in this world will preserve it for eternal life. Whoever serves me must follow me, and where I am, there also will my servant be. The Father will honor whoever serves me.

—The Gospel of the Lord.
