Parish News for 22nd Week in Ordinary Time

September 1, 2024 by James Elston in Weekly News

This Sunday is the 22nd in Ordinary Time. In the Gospel reading Jesus argues with the scribes and Pharisees about their hypocrisy. He sees that their outward show of religion does not match the intentions of their hearts. Christ calls us to conform our hearts to him so that all we do might be done in love.  Click here for the Scripture Readings.
