Listen to the homily here.

Notes:
St. Paul wrote to the Philippians
·
Read this quick reading
·
St. Paul was in jail or a house arrest
·
He wrote with joyfulness:
o 4:4:
“Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will
say, Rejoice.”
o 4:13:
“I can do all things in him who
strengthens me.”
Today we heard his writing in Philippians 1
· “Christ will be magnified in my body, whether by life or by death.”
· “Only, conduct yourselves in a way worthy of the gospel of Christ.”
o The
gospel
o eujaggeli÷ou
o Gospel
or good news
St. Paul is teaching us today
·
Read and listen to the Gospel: the Bible,
Matthew, Mark, Luke and John (evangelists)
·
Pray
o Isaiah
55:6: “Seek the LORD while he may be found, call him while he is near.”
§ Tabernacle,
Mass, opening our hearts to Him, nature and love
o Responsorial
Psalm: “The
Lord is near to all who call upon him.”
And what is the gift that God gives us?
·
Parable
·
The daily wage
·
For each person who serves Him
This service on earth offers our good news to receive heaven
itself
And that is why St. Paul, who wrote to the Philippians a few
years before he was killed and received his daily wage to God
· “For to me life is Christ, and death is gain.”
And that is the good news for each of us!
