Mass Readings for the 30th Sunday in Ordinary Time Year B

• First Reading – Jeremiah 31:7-9: The LORD promises to bring back the remnant of Israel from the north, comforting and guiding them as a father, ensuring a safe return for all, including the vulnerable.
• Responsorial Psalm – Psalm 126: The LORD restored Zion’s captives, filling us with joy. Nations recognized God’s deeds. We pray for renewed fortunes, knowing those who sow in tears will reap in joy, bringing in their harvest.
• Second Reading – Hebrews 5:1-6: High priests are chosen from among men to offer sacrifices for sins. Christ, called by God, is a priest forever in the order of Melchizedek, not by self-glorification.
• Gospel – Mark 10:46-52: Bartimaeus, a blind beggar, called out to Jesus for mercy. Despite being told to be quiet, he persisted. Jesus healed him, saying his faith had saved him. Bartimaeus then followed Jesus.
  
  The 30th Sunday in Ordinary Time Year B highlights God’s love and mercy. The readings show how God listens to our cries and heals our brokenness. Here are some themes for this Sunday: trusting in God’s plan.
  

Thank you to everyone who participated in the clothing donation drive organized by the Youth Group and CCD for St. Vincent de Paul. Your generous contributions have made a big difference to those in need!

To keep things running smoothly during Mass, please try to sit toward the inside of the pews. This will make it easier for latecomers to find their seats. We really appreciate your help!
