PATHWAYS OF HOPE: “IN HUMILITY AND LOVE”

SATURDAY, March 14, 2026Saturday of the 3rd Week of LentMemorial of Saint Matilda, queen PATHWAYS OF HOPE: “IN HUMILITY AND LOVE”[GOSPEL OF THE DAY]: LUKE 18:9-14Jesus addressed this parableto those who were convinced of their own righteousnessand despised everyone else.“Two people went up to the temple area to pray;one was a Pharisee and the other was a tax collector.The Pharisee took up his position and spoke this prayer to himself,‘O God, I thank you that I am not like the rest of humanity —greedy, dishonest, adulterous — or even like this tax collector.I fast twice a week,and I pay tithes on my whole income.’But the tax collector stood off at a distanceand would not even raise his eyes to heavenbut beat his breast and prayed,‘O God, be merciful to me a sinner.’I tell you, the latter went home justified, not the former;for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled,and the one who humbles himself will be exalted.”Reflection by Anya Santos: Campus Staffer for Christ’s Youth in Action.
