Lectio: Mt 10.7-15

Meditatio: “Without cost you have received; without cost you are to give." Mt 10.8b

Oratio: O God, Your Son made it clear that the Good News is free. Pray to avoid making a business out of religion so that the poor will always be beneficiaries for the poor had a special place in Jesus' heart.

I ask this and all things in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with You
and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever.

Contemplatio: spend some time in silence & meditate on the selected passage and hear what  God is saying to you.

Operatio: reflect: “without cost...give"; our most precious worth was a gift and we are to give it to others as a gift.  Seek the grace to be Christ-like in sharing the Good News and Jesus will be pleased.

Lectio: Mt 10.16-23

Meditatio: “But beware of people, for they will hand you over to courts and scourge you in their synagogues." Mt 10.17

Oratio: O God, Your Son warned His disciples that they would be persecuted. And they were and His followers continue to be even now. Pray that all may persevere in the faith.

I ask this and all things in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with You
and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever.

Contemplatio: spend some time in silence & meditate on the selected passage and hear what  God is saying to you.

Operatio: reflect: “hand over...scourge"; persecution is to be the lot of His followers for His Way is not the way of the world. Seek the grace to be always faithful.
