SUNDAY 30th AUGUST 2026

Twenty-Second Sunday in Ordinary Time

When Peter tries to deny the Lord his Passion “God forbid that such a thing ever happen to you!”—the Lord rebukes him. Why? Because Christ’s death on the cross would fulfill the “good and pleasing and perfect” will of the Father for our salvation. In union with Jesus, we offer our bodies as a living sacrifice to God. And no matter how much our sharing in Christ’s cross may make us an object of the world’s laughter and mockery, the love of God is like a fire burning in our heart. This love, in all its life-giving glory, is what Christ reveals on the cross.

INTENTIONS

Pope Leo XIV has urged Catholics across the globe to join him this July in praying for respect for human life.

He released the monthly “Pray with the Pope” video on Thursday, which is prepared by the Pope’s Worldwide Prayer Network.

In his prayer, the Pope recognized that the Lord has created each of us in love and called us to live in fullness.

"Each person is a sacred gift that reflects your face," he said, "from the first instant of existence to the final breath of their journey on earth."

"Today," he continued, "we ask for the grace to recognise and protect the unique and unrepeatable value of every human being."
