17TH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME YEAR C

Theme: Ask and you shall receive

 

1st Reading: Genesis, Chapter 18: 20-32

Abraham’s prayer encounter with God and God’s response at each turn of the dialogue is a lesson in the power of persistent prayer. We also learn that God’s mercy is abundant.

 

2nd Reading: Colossians, Chapter 2:12-14

St. Paul reminds us that the Grace that was poured into us at baptism leads to new life in Christ, and, consequently, to salvation.

 

Gospel Reading: Luke, Chapter 11: 1-13

Jesus teaches us the basic elements of prayer, and stresses the importance of persistence in prayer.
