RESPONSORIAL PSALMHere I am, Lord; I come to do your will
SECOND READING1 Corinthians 6:13-15,17-20The body is not meant for fornication: it is for the Lord, and the Lord for the body. God, who raised the Lord from the dead, will by his power raise us up too.
You know, surely, that your bodies are members making up the body of Christ; anyone who is joined to the Lord is one spirit with him.
Keep away from fornication. All the other sins are committed outside the body; but to fornicate is to sin against your own body. Your body, you know, is the temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you since you received him from God. You are not your own property; you have been bought and paid for. That is why you should use your body for the glory of God.
GOSPEL ACCLAMATIONAlleluia, alleluia!We have found the Messiah:Jesus Christ, who brings us truth and grace.
Vol 4 : No 9SECOND SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME - YEAR B
GOSPELJohn 1:35-42As John stood with two of his disciples, Jesus passed, and John stared hard at him and said, ‘Look, there is the lamb of God.’ Hearing this, the two disciples followed Jesus. Jesus turned round, saw them following and said, ‘What do you want?’ They answered, ‘Rabbi,’ – which means Teacher –’where do you live?’ ‘Come and see’ he replied; so they went and saw where he lived, and stayed with him the rest of that day. It was about the tenth hour.
One of these two who became followers of Jesus after hearing what John had said was Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter. Early next morning, Andrew met his brother and said to him, ‘We have found the Messiah’ – which means the Christ – and he took Simon to Jesus. Jesus looked hard at him and said, ‘You are Simon son of John; you are to be called Cephas’ – meaning Rock.
EVANGELII GAUDIUM “Sometimes it is a matter of hearing the cry of entire peoples, the poorest people of the earth...we must never forget that the planet belongs to all mankind and is meant for all mankind; the mere fact that some people are born in places with fewer resources or less development does not justify the fact that they are living with less dignity...We need to grow in a solidarity which ‘would allow all peoples to become artisans of their own destiny’, since every person is called to self-fulfilment.”
Para 190 from Evangelii Gaudium, Pope Francis, Nov. 24, 2013
FEAST DAY OF THE WEEKSt Fabian, (January 20)
Fabian was a Roman layman who came into the city from his farm one day as clergy and people were preparing to elect a new pope. Eusebius, a Church historian, says a dove flew in and settled on the head of Fabian. This sign united the votes of clergy and laity, and he was chosen unanimously.
He led the Church for 14 years and died a martyr’s death during the persecution of Decius in 250 AD. St
(Continued from page 1) Cyprian wrote to his successor that Fabian was an ‘incomparable’ man whose glory in death matched the holiness and purity of his life.
In the catacombs of St Callistus, the stone that covered Fabian’s grave may still be seen, broken into four pieces, bearing the Greek words, ‘Fabian, bishop, martyr.”
AS DISCIPLES, WE ARE ENCOURAGED TO ‘COME AND SEE’
“...the Saviour has a personal call for each one of us to become his ‘disciple’... It is important that we seek that incomparable intimacy with the Saviour that is our birthright through baptism – not relating to him as a remote figure, but confidently sharing our lives, in all their complex tangles, with him. Today’s story of the two disciples encourages this trust and confidence. Encouraged by the Baptist, they approached Jesus; he gave them a warm welcome – ‘Come and see;’ and they spent the rest of the day with him.” Fr John Thornhill
PRAYERS OF THE SAINTS“O gracious and holy one, give us the wisdom to perceive you, intelligence to understand you, diligence to seek you, patience to wait for you, eyes to behold you, a heart to meditate on you and a life to proclaim you.”
St Benedict of Nursia, the founder of the Benedictine Order
