Hodges N. & A. Fernando C. Thiele G. & M. Nogueira ENTRANCE ANTIPHON: See, I have God for my help. The Lord sustains my soul. I will sacrifice to You with willing heart, and praise Your Name, O Lord, for it is good. RESPONSORIAL PSALM: The just will live in the presence of the Lord. 1. Lord, who shall dwell on Your holy mountain? He who walks without fault; he who acts with justice and speaks the truth from his heart; he who does not slander with his tongue. 2. He who does no wrong to his brother, who casts no slur on his neighbour, who holds the godless in disdain, but honours those who fear the Lord. 3. He who keeps his pledge, come what may; who takes no interest on a loan and accepts no bribes against the innocent. Such a man will stand firm for ever. GOSPEL ACCLAMATION: Alleluia, alleluia! Happy are they who have kept the Word with a generous heart and yield a harvest through perseverance. Alleluia! COMMUNION ANTIPHON: The Lord, the gracious, the merciful, has made a memorial of His wonders; He gives food to those who fear Him. READINGS FOR NEXT SUNDAY: 17th Sunday in Ordinary Time (Year C): Genesis 18:20-32; Colossians 2:12-14; Luke 11:1-13. THOUGHTS ON THE GOSPEL: Mary and Martha. I believe that these two women exist in each of us, vying for attention but needing to be in harmony. That is why we can become so enamoured of their story. We contemplate why Christ chides Martha and feel empathy because Martha is a very real part of who we are, who we seemingly have to be. She was on the right track because she was, after all, the one who invited Him in, and yet misunderstood what was then expected of her. Mary, on the other hand, while seemingly presenting to us an attitude of peace and centeredness that we all aspire to, sometimes seems a bit, well, lazy. Don’t we sometimes think, “Hmmm…realistically, doesn’t someone need to get these things done?” But these women exist in Scripture for a reason. They are meant to show us the balance required to live as a follower of Christ. Prayer and meditation allow us to discern when we should be Martha or Mary. Both women have a lot to teach us in our lives as Catholic women. And now the Martha in me has a party to plan so that the Mary in me will be blessed by time with family and friends! Commentary by Cheryl Dickow, The Integrated Catholic Life. LISTENING: There are many opportunities during the liturgy for us to listen with great reverence. We listen to the word of God as proclaimed through the readings from Scripture. We listen as the priest or deacon delivers a homily, which brings to life the message of the readings of the day. We listen in the quietness of our own hearts to the personal response to which we are called in our own lives. From the Catholic Enquiry Centre http://www.catholicenquiry.com Thursday, 22nd July is the Feast Day of St Mary Magdalene: Mary Magdalene is mentioned among the women who accompanied Jesus and ministered to Him (Luke 8:2-3), where it is also said that seven devils had been cast out of her (Mark 16:9). She is next named as standing at the foot of the cross (Mark 15:40; Matthew 27:56; John 19:25; Luke 23:49). She saw Christ laid in the tomb, and she was the first recorded witness of the Resurrection when she went to the empty tomb and Jesus called her by her name “Mary!” (John 20:16). QUOTE: I have found the paradox that if I love until it hurts, then there is no hurt, but only more love. Mother Teresa

ENTRANCE ANTIPHON: See, I have God for my help. The Lord sustains
my soul. I will sacrifice to You with willing heart, and praise Your Name,
O Lord, for it is good.
RESPONSORIAL PSALM:
The just will live in the presence of the Lord.
1. Lord, who shall dwell on Your holy mountain? He who walks without
fault; he who acts with justice and speaks the truth from his heart;
he who does not slander with his tongue.
2. He who does no wrong to his brother, who casts no slur on his
neighbour, who holds the godless in disdain, but honours those
who fear the Lord.
3. He who keeps his pledge, come what may; who takes no interest on
a loan and accepts no bribes against the innocent. Such a man will
stand firm for ever.
GOSPEL ACCLAMATION: Alleluia, alleluia! Happy are
they who have kept the Word with a generous heart
and yield a harvest through perseverance. Alleluia!
COMMUNION ANTIPHON: The Lord, the gracious,
the merciful, has made a memorial of His wonders;
He gives food to those who fear Him.
READINGS FOR NEXT SUNDAY: 17th Sunday in Ordinary Time (Year C): Genesis 18:20-32; Colossians 2:12-14; Luke 11:1-13.
THOUGHTS ON THE GOSPEL: Mary and Martha. I believe that these two women exist in each of
us, vying for attention but needing to be in harmony. That is why we can become so enamoured of their
story. We contemplate why Christ chides Martha and feel empathy because Martha is a very real part of

one who invited Him in, and yet misunderstood what was then expected of her. Mary, on the other
