Sunday 20 September

25th Week in Ordinary Time

Wisdom 2:12; 17-20; Ps.54; James 3:16-4:3; Mark 9: 30-37

On the road

Such a human story! The disciples arguing on the road about who would be in charge! Jesus’ question to them meets with an awkward silence. He disrupts their arguments and offers some guidance about authentic success and service. Pope Francis says: The world tells us to seek success, power and money; God tells us to seek humility, service and love.
