Gospel
10.7 to 15 Mt
At that time, Jesus said to his apostles: "Along the way, preach, saying that the kingdom of heaven is near. Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, cast out demons. Freely you received, freely give. Provide neither gold nor silver nor money in your belts, no bag for your journey, nor two tunics, nor sandals, nor staff, for he who works has the right to his food. In any city or village you enter, inquire who is worthy and there stay there until you leave. Entering the house, you should consult the greeting. And if the house is worthy, let your peace come upon it: but if one is not worthy, let your peace return to you. If anyone does not welcome you and does not hear your words, get out of that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet. Verily I say unto the Day of Judgement the land of Sodom and Gomorrah will be treated less harshly than the city. "
Meditation
We know from the history of the Church as the Gospel passage proclaimed today has been truly implemented by many saints, apostles and missionaries. Reading, for example, the Franciscan sources or deeds St. Dominic, he was amazed the way these "beggars of God" we have evangelized and peaceful Europe, you go along "with bare feet, with only a habit, without money or stick," just as Jesus prescribed to his disciples. This is beautiful, and should arouse feelings of emulation in young people today who are called to follow Christ at the school of Francis and Dominic. But in this Gospel passage is something that also applies to married Christians. We discover by reading carefully the instructions that Jesus gave to His apostles and asked them to look in the towns and villages to be visited, "a house where there is some worthy person "who knows how to welcome and host you in the name of God is what he did when Paul arrived in Corinth, he was greeted by Mr and Mrs Priscilla and Aquila. Their hospitality was delicious and providential for the ministry of the Apostle. Indeed, they themselves became his valuable collaborators in the evangelization and the building of the Church. That's why, even after the departure of Paul, the Community of Corinth will meet regularly in the house of Aquila and Priscilla. They, therefore, well deserved to get into the Litany of the Saints that resonate during the rite of marriage, because their example of cooperation with the Apostle, may be repeated our lay Christians who, like them, must not only receive the Church and the priest, but also be able to give collaboration and friendship, so that the priest will no longer feel alone in this mission is the duty of all .
Prayer Jesus, bless my family and reigns in my home, because it, like that of the holy spouses Aquila and Priscilla, is open to hospitality towards the poor and evangelists, so that it enjoy all of your peace. Amen.
Act: will invite to my house the pastor, or a missionary, so I can enjoy a moment of conviviality and friendship.
