Amen.

SPEAKER_01

The Lord be with you. And with your spirit. Dear brothers and sisters, as we come to celebrate this Eucharist, we are reminded through the scriptures of today, where Jesus invites us and challenges us. Do not judge that you may not be judged. It's easier said than done. We all know that we have a temptation to jump into conclusion, to judge others. So we ask God's pardon and mercy. I confess to Almighty God and to you, my brothers and sisters, that I have greatly sinned in my thoughts and in my words, in what I have done and in what I have failed to do through my fault, through my fault, through my most grievous fault. Therefore I ask Blessed Maria Virgin, all the angels and saints, and to you, my brothers and sisters, to pray for me to the Lord our God. May Almighty God have mercy on us, forgive us our sins, and bring us to life everlasting. Amen. Lord have mercy. Christ have mercy. Lord have mercy. Let us pray. Grant us, Lord our God, that we may honor you with all our mind and love everyone in truth of heart. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, forever and ever. Amen.

A reading from the second book of Kings. The King of Assyria invaded all the land and came to Samaria. For three years he besieged it. In the ninth year of Osheah, the king of Assyria captured Samaria. He carried the Israelites away to Assyria. He placed them in Hala, on the harbor, the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes. This occurred because the people of Israel had sinned against the Lord their God, who had brought them up out of the land of Egypt from under the hand of Pharaoh, king of Egypt. They had worshipped other gods and walked in the customs of the nations, whom the Lord drove out before the people of Israel. Yet the Lord warned Israel and Judah by every prophet and every seer, saying, Turn from your evil ways and keep my commandments and my statutes in accordance with all the law that I commanded your ancestors and that I sent to you by my servants, the prophets. They would not listen but were stubborn as their ancestors had been, who did not believe in the Lord their God. They despised his statutes and his covenant that he made with their ancestors and the warnings that he gave them. Therefore the Lord was very angry with Israel and removed them out of his sight. None was left but the tribe of Judah alone. The word of the Lord.

SPEAKER_05

You have caused the land to quake, you have torn it open, repair the cracks in it, for it is tottering. Help us with your right hand, oh Lord, and answer us. You have made your people suffer hearth. You have given us wine to drink that made us ring. Give victory with your right hand and answer us so that those whom you love may be rescued. Help us with your right hand, oh Lord, and answer us. Have you not rejected us, oh God? You do not go out, oh God with our armies grants us, help against the hoan help is worth help us with your right hand, oh Lord and Alléluia, Alléluia, Alléluia. The word of God is living in active It probes the thoughts and motives of Aleluia Aleluia Hallelujah.

SPEAKER_01

The Lord be with you.

SPEAKER_03

And with your spirit.

SPEAKER_01

A reading from the Holy Gospel according to Matthew. Jesus said to his disciples, Do not judge, so that you may not be judged. For with the judgment you make, you will be judged. And the measure you give will be the measure you get. Why do you seek the speck in your neighbor's eye but do not notice the log in your own eye? Or how can you say to your neighbor, let me take the speck out of your eye while the log is in your own eye? You hypocrite. First take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your neighbor's eye. The gospel of the Lord. Praise you, Lord Jesus Christ. You may have heard the story of an elderly woman who every morning sat at her kitchen table with a cup of coffee, looking out the window at her neighbor's yard. Each time the neighbor hung out her laundry, the woman would shake her head and say to her husband, look at that. Those clothes are still dirty. She clearly doesn't know how to wash properly. Maybe she's using the wrong soap. Someone should really teach her. This went on for weeks after weeks. The commentary never changed. Then one morning she looked out and was stunned. The laundry was bright, clean, and spotless. She called out, honey, come quickly. Look, she finally learned how to wash her clothes. I wonder who helped her. Her husband calmly replied, actually, I got up early today and cleaned our windows. We smile at the story because if you are honest, we have all been there. It reminds us how easy it is to see what's wrong with others while missing what might be clouding our own vision. And that's exactly where today's readings meet us. The first reading we hear something honestly a big tragic. God keeps reaching out to his people, he sends prophets, cheers, warnings, invitations to change. He's not silent, he's not distant. But the response, they would not listen. Not because they couldn't, but because they wouldn't. They become stubborn, closed off, certain they were fine. And over time something deeper happens. They start following things that are empty. And slowly they themselves become empty. Their vision gets distorted. They can't see God clearly anymore. And eventually they can't even see themselves clearly. And that leads beautifully to the into the gospel. Jesus says, Do not judge so that you may not be judged. But then he gives us a striking image. Someone trying to remove a tiny speck from another person's eye while a massive wooden beam is sticking out of their own. It's almost humorous. You can picture it. Someone leaning in very carefully and saying, Don't move. I'll fix that for you. Well, completely unaware of the huge plank in their own face. It's ridiculous. And yet it is also uncomfortably familiar. Because we do this. We notice quickly when someone is rude or difficult or makes a mistake. We see it right away. But when it comes to our own impatience, our own pride, our own lack of kindness, we explain it. We justify it. We overlook it. Jesus is not telling us to ignore wrongdoings or pretend everything is fine, not to correct others. He is not asking us to abandon our sense of right and wrong. What he is teaching us is order. Where to begin. Begin with yourself. First remove the beam from your own eye. First look within. First be honest with yourself. First let God work on you. Then he says you will actually be able to see clearly enough to help someone else. That is the key. It should come from humility. It comes from awareness. It comes from someone who knows I am still a work in progress too. I need God's grace, God's mercy. So today the invitation is simple but not easy. It's an invitation to clean our own windows first. To pass and ask ourselves honestly. Where might I be resisting God's voice? Where am I quick to judge others? But slow to examine myself. What might be blocking my vision? This kind of self-examination isn't meant to discourage us. It's meant to free us. Because once we begin to see clearly, everything changes. We become more patient, more understanding, more compassionate. We stop standing over others as judges and begin to walk beside them as fellow travelers. And maybe that's the real goal, not perfection, but clarity of heart. Clarity of vision. A heart that knows it is still learning, still growing, still in need of grace. So today let us ask God for that grace. The courage to look within, the humility to recognize our own need for mercy. And the love to see others. Not through the blur of judgment, but through the clarity of compassion. Because when our vision is clear, we don't just see faults, we begin to see people the way God sees them. Not as a problem to fix, but as a person to love. So dear brothers and sisters, as we come to celebrate this E Christ, we are reminded, to be compassionate, to be loving, to be merciful. When we have the humility to know that we are following pilgrims, we are journeying together with each other, then we would have love as our measuring stick rather than judgment. So we pray for that grace as we celebrate this Eucharist. Let us bring forth our prayers and petitions. We pray for ourselves, for wisdom, knowledge, and understanding. That we continue to know the plan of God for our lives and to understand the invitation that God gives to each of us. We pray to the Lord. We pray for our family members and friends, particularly those who are caught up in the worldly things, who think that they are superior than the others. For country leaders, for all those who feel that they can dominate and control, that they may understand that we all of us are in need of grace. We pray to the Lord. For all those in our daily TV Mass Prayer Intentions book, we pray to the Lord. During this month of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, let us pray for healing in families. That Christ's mercy may renew our hearts and restore our relationships. We pray to the Lord. We take a moment of silence to bring to God our own individual needs and prayers. We pray to the Lord.

SPEAKER_03

Lord, Lord, hear our prayer.

SPEAKER_01

Heavenly Father, we bring before you all our prayers and petitions, knowing and trusting you always listen to us, your children, through Christ our Lord.

unknown

Amen.

SPEAKER_01

Blessed are you, Lord God of all creation, for through your goodness we have received the bread we offer you, fruit of the earth and work of human hands. It will become for us the bread of life. Blessed be God forever. Blessed are you, Lord God of all creation, for through your goodness we have received the wine we offer you, fruit of the wine and work of human hands. It will become our spiritual drink. For the praise and glory of his name. For a good of all his holy church. O Lord, we bring to your altar these offerings of our service. Be pleased to receive them, we pray, to transform them into the sacrament of our redemption. Through Christ our Lord. The Lord be with you. Lift up your hearts. Let us give thanks to the Lord our God. It is truly right and just our duty and our salvation, always and everywhere, to give you thanks. Lord, Holy Father, Almighty and Eternal God. For just as through your beloved Son you created the human race, so also through Him with great goodness you formed it new. And so it is right that all your creatures serve you, all the redeemed praise you, and all your saints with one heart bless you. Therefore, we too extol you with all the angels, as in joyful celebration we acclaim.

SPEAKER_05

Holy holy Lord God of hosts heaven and earth are full of your glory.

SPEAKER_01

For through your Son, our Lord Jesus Christ, by the power and working of the Holy Spirit, you give life to all things and make them holy. And you never cease to gather a people to yourself, so that from the rising of the Son to its setting, a pure sacrifice may be offered to your name. Therefore, O Lord, we humbly implore you, by the same Spirit, graciously make holy these gifts we have brought to you for consecration, that they may become the body and blood of your Son, our Lord Jesus Christ, at whose command we celebrate these mysteries. For on the night he was betrayed, he himself took bread, and giving you thanks he said the blessing, broke the bread, and gave it to his disciples, saying, Take this, all of you, and eat of it, for this is my body, which will be given up for you. In a similar way, when supper was ended, he took the chalice, and giving you thanks, he said the blessing, and gave the chalice to his disciples, saying, Take this, all of you, and drink from it, for this is a chalice of my blood, the blood of the new and eternal covenant, which will be poured out for you and for many, for the forgiveness of sins. Do this in memory of me. The mystery of faith.

SPEAKER_05

When we eat this bread and drink this cup, we proclaim your death hold until you come again.

SPEAKER_01

Therefore, O Lord, as we celebrate the memorial of the saving passion of your Son, His wondrous resurrection and ascension into heaven, and as we look forward to your second coming, we offer you in thanksgiving this holy and living sacrifice. Look, we pray upon the oblation of your church, and recognizing the sacrificial victim by whose death you will to reconcile us to yourself. Grant that we who are nourished by the body and blood of your Son and filled with His Holy Spirit may become one body, one spirit. May He make of us an eternal offering to you, so that we may obtain an inheritance with your elect, especially with the most blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of God, with the Blessed Joseph, her spouse, with your blessed apostles and glorious martyrs, and with all the saints on whose constant intercession in your presence we rely for unfailing help. May this sacrifice of our consolation we pray, O Lord, advance the peace and salvation of all the world. Be pleased to confirm in faith and charity your pilgrim church on earth, with your servant Leo, our Pope, Francis our Bishop, the order of bishops, all the clergy, and the entire people you have gained for your own. Listen graciously to the prayers of this family, whom you have summoned before you in your compassion, O merciful Father. Gather to yourself all your children scattered throughout the world. To our departed brothers and sisters, and to all who are pleasing to you at their passing from this life, give kind admittance to your kingdom. There we hope to enjoy forever the fullness of your glory through Christ our Lord, through whom you bestow on the world all that is good. Through him and with him and in him. O God, Almighty Father, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, all glory and honor is yours forever and ever. Amen. At the Savior's command and formed by divine teaching, we dare to say, Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Deliver us, Lord, we pray from every evil. Graciously grant peace in our days, that by the help of your mercy, we may be always free from sin and safe from all distress, as we await the blessed hope and the coming of our Savior, Jesus Christ. For the kingdom, the power and the glory are yours now and forever. Lord Jesus Christ, who said to your apostles, peace I leave you, my peace I give you. Look not on our sins, but on the faith of your church, and graciously grant her peace and unity in accordance with your will, who live and reign forever and ever. Amen. The peace of the Lord be with you always. And with yourself. Let us offer each other the sign of peace.

SPEAKER_05

You take away the sins of the world. Have mercy on us.

SPEAKER_01

Behold the Lamb of God, behold him who takes away the sins of the world. Blessed are those called to the supper of the Lamb. Lord, I am not worthy that you should enter under my roof, but only say the word, and my soul shall be healed.

SPEAKER_04

Please join me now in this act of spiritual communion. My Jesus, I believe that you are present in this holy sacrament of the altar. I love you above all things, and I passionately desire to receive you into my soul. Since I cannot now receive you sacramentally, come spiritually into my soul, so that I may unite myself wholly to you, now and forever. Amen.

SPEAKER_01

Let us pray. Nourished by these redeeming gifts, we pray, O Lord, that through this help to eternal salvation, true faith may ever increase through Christ our Lord. Amen. The Lord be with you and with your spirit. May Almighty God bless you, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Amen. Go forth in peace to love and serve one another. Thanks.

SPEAKER_04

Our thanks to our donors for the gift of this month.
