The Memorial of Saint Peter Claver

Today's readings, on the feast of Saint Peter Claver — who spent his life serving enslaved people others had cast aside — explore what it truly means to be blessed. Paul's letter invites us to hold the things of this world loosely, while the Gospel offers Jesus' startling vision of who the fortunate ones really are. Today's Readings: • First Reading: 1 Corinthians 7:25-31 • Responsorial Psalm: Psalm 45:11-12, 14-15, 16-17 • Gospel: Luke 6:20-26
