29th Sunday in Ordinary Time
Mass Readings for the 29th Sunday in Ordinary Time Year B
- First Reading – Isaiah 53:10-11: The LORD allowed the Suffering Servant to suffer for our sins. He will offer his life, see his descendants, fulfill the LORD’s will, and justify many through his affliction and bearing their guilt.
- Responsorial Psalm – Psalm 33: The Lord’s word is reliable, and his works are trustworthy. He watches over those who fear him and hope for his kindness, rescuing them from death and sustaining them in famine.
- Second Reading – Hebrews 4:14-16: Jesus, the Son of God, our great high priest, understands our weaknesses and temptations. Let us confidently approach God’s throne for mercy and grace in our time of need.
- Gospel – Mark 10:35-45: James and John asked Jesus for positions of honor. Jesus taught that true greatness comes from serving others, not from seeking power. He emphasized that he came to serve and give his life for many.
The readings for the 29th Sunday in Ordinary Time Year B highlight the nature of true discipleship and Jesus’ mission. They remind us of the importance of serving others and trusting in God’s plan.
October Mission Sunday Second Collection
Every year, the Catholic Church designates the Sunday before the last in October as "Mission Sunday" to remind us of our role in supporting the Church’s mission work around the world. It’s a chance to raise awareness and offer help to missionaries and churches in areas that need it most.
We’re asking for your prayers and contributions to support the dedicated missionaries spreading the message of Jesus, and to assist churches in mission territories that need extra help.
Your generosity will make a big difference.
Collection Dates: October 19, 20
Clothing Donation Drive
