First Reading: Romans 16: 3-9, 16, 22-27
Responsorial Psalm: Psalm 145: 2-3, 4-5, 10-11
Holy Gospel: Luke 16:9-15


Holy Gospel:

9 And so I tell you: use filthy money to make friends for yourselves, so that when it fails, these people may welcome you into the eternal homes.

10 Whoever can be trusted in little things can also be trusted in great ones; whoever is dishonest in slight matters will also be dishonest in greater ones. 11 So if you have not been trustworthy in handling filthy money, who could entrust you with true wealth? 12 And if you have not been trustworthy with things that are not really yours, who will give you the wealth which is your own?

13 No servant can serve two masters. Either he does not like the one and is fond of the other, or he regards one highly and the other with contempt. You cannot give yourself both to God and to Money.”

14 The Pharisees, who loved money, heard all this and sneered at Jesus. 15 He said to them, “You do your best to be considered righteous by people. But God knows the heart, and what rises high among humans is loathed by God.

3 Greetings to Prisca and Aquilas, my helpers in Christ Jesus. 4 To save my life, they risked theirs; I am very grateful to them, as are all the churches of the pagan nations. 5 Greetings also to the church that meets in their house. Greetings to my dear Epa­e­netus, the first in the province of Asia to believe in Christ. 6 Greet Mary, who worked so much for you.

7 Greetings to Andronicus and Junias, my relatives and companions in prison; they are well known apostles and served Christ before I did.

8 Give greetings to Ampliatus, whom I love so much in the Lord. 9 Greetings to Urbanus, our fellow worker, and to my dear Stachys.


Responsorial Psalm:

2 I will praise you day after day and exalt your name forever.

3 Great is the Lord, most worthy of praise; and his deeds are beyond mea­sure.

4 Parents commend your works to their children and tell them your feats.

5 They proclaim the splendor of your majesty and recall your wondrous works.

10 All your works will give you thanks; all your saints, O Lord, will praise you.

11 They will tell of the glory of your kingdom and speak of your power, 12 that all may know of your mighty deeds, your reign and its glorious splendor.
