CALLED TO LIVE WITH COMPASSION, JUSTICE AND HUMILITY
The 26th Sunday in Ordinary Time (Year C) invites us to pause and examine our lives in the light of the Gospel. The readings present a clear call to move beyond indifference, selfish comfort and material security, and to open our eyes to the poor, the needy and the marginalized in our midst. Just as the prophet Amos denounced complacency and Jesus spoke of the reversal between the rich man and Lazarus, we too are challenged to build a life rooted in compassion, justice and humility.
Living this call means allowing our faith to become visible through concrete actions of mercy, solidarity and service. It is not enough to admire these virtues; we are called to practice them daily — in our homes, parishes, workplaces and communities. When we show genuine concern for others, especially the least and the forgotten, we bear authentic witness to Christ and become instruments of God’s Kingdom here on earth.
To help you enter more deeply into this Sunday’s message, we are sharing a set of liturgical resources — Mass introductions, prayers, reflections and visuals — to support your celebration. May these materials inspire us all to respond generously to God’s Word and to participate more fully in the Eucharist, drawing strength to live the Gospel with courage and joy.
