Monday of the Fifteenth week in Ordinary Time Saint(s) of the day : St. Kateri Tekakwitha, Virgin (1656-1680), St. Camillus of Lellis, Priest (1550-1614) image Other saints of the day Readings Commentary of the day : Eusebius of Caesarea « When I speak of peace, they are ready for war » (Ps 119[120],7) Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Matthew 10:34-42.11:1. Jesus said to his Apostles: “Do not think that I have come to bring peace upon the earth. I have come to bring not peace but the sword. For I have come to set a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law; and ones enemies will be those of his household. Whoever loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me, and whoever loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me; and whoever does not take up his cross and follow after me is not worthy of me. Whoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it. Whoever receives you receives me, and whoever receives me receives the one who sent me. Whoever receives a prophet because he is a prophet will receive a prophets reward, and whoever receives a righteous man because he is righteous will receive a righteous mans reward. And whoever gives only a cup of cold water to one of these little ones to drink because he is a disciple--amen, I say to you, he will surely not lose his reward. When Jesus finished giving these commands to his twelve disciples, he went away from that place to teach and to preach in their towns.
