September 25, 2016 Twenty-sixth Sunday in Ordinary Time

Theme: Poverty and Protecting the Most Vulnerable

While the common good embraces all, those who are weak, vulnerable, and most in need deserve preferential concern. Our concern for the poor and vulnerable includes all who are marginalized in our nation and beyond: unborn children, persons with disabilities, the elderly and terminally ill, victims of injustice and oppression, and immigrants.
