Gospel Reflection
Hear Jesus’ words:
When you do a kindness,
hide from your left hand what your right is doing.
Your good deed must be secret.
Believe what Jesus says,
God is generous; God is good.
Gospel Reading - Jesus’ promise to the faithful

9“Then you will be tortured and killed and hated all over the world because you are mine, 10and many of you shall fall back into sin and betray and hate each other. 11And many false prophets will appear and lead many astray. 12Sin will be rampant everywhere and will cool the love of many. 13But those enduring to the end shall be saved.
. . . . .Matthew 24:9-13The Lord's Prayer
Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
your kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
Forgive us our sins
as we forgive those who sin against us.
Save us from the time of trial
and deliver us from evil.
For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours
now and for ever.
Amen.
