Și Moise s-a suit la Dumnezeu, iar Domnul i-a spus din munte: "Așa să spui casei lui Iacov și să spui poporului lui Israel: Ați văzut ce am făcut egiptenilor și cum v-am purtat pe aripile vulturilor și v-am adus la mine. Acum, deci, dacă veți asculta de glasul meu și veți păzi legământul meu, veți fi posesia mea între toate popoarele; căci toată pământul este al meu, și veți fi pentru mine un regat de preoți și o națiune sfântă."

14-JUN-2026 Readings

1ST READING: Exodus 19:2-6

In those days: When the people of Israel came into the wilderness of Sinai, they encamped in the wilderness; and there Israel encamped before the mountain. And Moses went up to God, and the  Lord called to him out of the mountain, saying, "Thus you shall say to the house of Jacob, and tell the people of Israel: You have seen what I did to the Egyptians, and how I bore you on eagles' wings and brought you to myself. Now therefore, if you will obey my voice and keep my covenant, you shall be my own possession among all peoples; for all the earth is mine, and you shall be to me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation.

The Word of The Lord!

Responsorial Psalm Psalm 100

📢  R. We are his people, the sheep of his flock.

Cry out with joy to the  Lord, all the earth. Serve the  Lord with gladness. Come before him, singing for joy.

R. We are his people, the sheep of his flock.

Know that he, the  Lord, is God. He made us; we belong to him. We are his people, the sheep of his flock.

R. We are his people, the sheep of his flock.

Indeed, how good is the  Lord, eternal his merciful love. He is faithful from age to age.

R. We are his people, the sheep of his flock.

2ND READING: Romans 5:6-11

Brethren: While we were yet helpless, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly. Why, one will hardly die for a righteous man-though perhaps for a good man one will dare even to die. But God shows his love for us in that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us. Since, therefore, we are now justified by his blood, much more shall we be saved by him from the wrath of God. For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, now that we are reconciled, shall we be saved by his life. Not only so, but we also rejoice in God through our  Lord  Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received our reconciliation.

The Word of The Lord!

ACCLAMATION: Mark 1:15

R. ALLELUIA.

The kingdom of God is at hand; repent, and believe the GOSPEL.

R. ALLELUIA.

GOSPEL Matthew 9:36-10:8

At that time: When  Jesus saw the crowds, he had compassion for them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd. Then he said to his disciples, "The harvest is plentiful, but the labourers are few; pray therefore the  Lord of the harvest to send out labourers into his harvest." And he called to him his twelve disciples and gave them authority over unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal every disease and every infirmity. The names of the twelve apostles are these: first, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother; James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother; Philip and Bartholomew; Thomas and Matthew the tax collector; James the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus; Simon the Cananaean, and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed him. These twelve  Jesus sent out, charging them, "Go nowhere among the Gentiles, and enter no town of the Samaritans, but go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. And preach as you go, saying, 'The kingdom of heaven is at hand.' Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse lepers, cast out demons. You received without paying, give without pay.

The Gospel of The Lord!

Reflection:

"*In today’s reading, God reminds Israel at Mount Sinai of His tender care — how He carried them “on eagles’ wings” and brought them to Himself. He calls them His treasured possession and invites them into a covenant of holiness: to be a kingdom of priests and a holy nation. This divine call reveals both privilege and responsibility — to belong entirely to God and reflect His holiness in the world. St. Paul deepens this mystery by showing how God’s love reaches its fullness in Christ. While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. His sacrifice turns enemies into friends, sinners into beloved children. Through His blood we are reconciled, and through His life we are saved — not by merit, but by mercy. In the GOSPEL,  Jesus’ compassion moves Him to act. Seeing the crowds “like sheep without a shepherd,” He sends the Twelve to continue His mission — to heal, to cleanse, to proclaim that the Kingdom of God is near. The same call now reaches us: to be instruments of His mercy, bringing light where there is darkness, hope where there is despair, and healing where there is pain. May we hear God’s voice today as Israel did at Sinai, and respond with grateful obedience, remembering that we are His people — saved by grace, sent in love, and called to serve without expecting anything in return. Jesus, I trust in you.*
