Daily Mass Readings for October 18 2024, Feast of Saint Luke, Evangelist
1st Reading – 2 Timothy 4:10-17B
Beloved:
10 Demas has abandoned me, out of love for this age, and he has departed for Thessalonica. Crescens has gone to Galatia; Titus to Dalmatia.
11 Luke alone is with me. Take Mark and bring him with you; for he is useful to me in the ministry.
12 But Tychicus I have sent to Ephesus.
13 When you return, bring with you the supplies that I left with Carpus at Troas, and the books, but especially the parchments.
14 Alexander the coppersmith has shown me much evil; the Lord will repay him according to his works.
15 And you should also avoid him; for he has strongly resisted our preaching.
16 At my first defense, no one stood by me, but everyone abandoned me. May it not be counted against them!
17 But the Lord stood with me and strengthened me, so that through me the preaching would be accomplished, and so that all the Gentiles would hear.
Responsorial Psalm – Psalms 145:10-11, 12-13, 17-18
R. (12) Your friends make known, O Lord, the glorious splendour of your Kingdom.
10 Let all your works give you thanks, O LORD,
and let your faithful ones bless you.
11 Let them discourse of the glory of your Kingdom
and speak of your might.
R. Your friends make known, O Lord, the glorious splendour of your Kingdom.
12 Making known to men your might
and the glorious splendour of your Kingdom.
13 Your Kingdom is a Kingdom for all ages,
and your dominion endures through all generations.
R. Your friends make known, O Lord, the glorious splendour of your Kingdom.
17 The LORD is just in all his ways
and holy in all his works.
18 The LORD is near to all who call upon him,
to all who call upon him in truth.
R. Your friends make known, O Lord, the glorious splendour of your Kingdom.
Alleluia – SEE John 15:16
R. Alleluia, alleluia.
16 I chose you from the world,
to go and bear fruit that will last, says the Lord.
R. Alleluia, alleluia.
Gospel – Luke 10:1-9
1 The Lord Jesus appointed seventy-two disciples whom he sent ahead of him in pairs to every town and place he intended to visit.
2 He said to them, “The harvest is abundant but the labourers are few; so ask the master of the harvest to send out labourers for his harvest.
3 Go on your way; behold, I am sending you like lambs among wolves.
4 Carry no money bag, no sack, no sandals; and greet no one along the way.
5 Into whatever house you enter, first say, ‘Peace to this household.’
6 If a peaceful person lives there, your peace will rest on him; but if not, it will return to you.
7 Stay in the same house and eat and drink what is offered to you, for the labourer deserves payment. Do not move about from one house to another.
8 Whatever town you enter and they welcome you, eat what is set before you,
9 cure the sick in it and say to them, ‘The Kingdom of God is at hand for you.'”
