​Gospel: Matthew 11:28-30
 
Jesus said:
“Come to me, all you who labor and are burdened,
   and I will give you rest.
Take my yoke upon you and learn from me,
   for I am meek and humble of heart;
   and you will find rest for yourselves.
For my yoke is easy, and my burden light.”

Preacher: Patrick Tesorio

​Gospel: Matthew 11:25-27
 
At that time Jesus exclaimed:
“I give praise to you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth,
   for although you have hidden these things
   from the wise and the learned
   you have revealed them to the childlike.
Yes, Father, such has been your gracious will.
All things have been handed over to me by my Father.
No one knows the Son except the Father,
   and no one knows the Father except the Son
   and anyone to whom the Son wishes to reveal him.”

Preacher: Emy Abaya

​Gospel: Matthew 11:20-24
 
Jesus began to reproach the towns
   where most of his mighty deeds had been done,
   since they had not repented.
“Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida!
For if the mighty deeds done in your midst
   had been done in Tyre and Sidon,
   they would long ago have repented in sackcloth and ashes.
But I tell you, it will be more tolerable
   for Tyre and Sidon on the day of judgment than for you.
And as for you, Capernaum:
 
   Will you be exalted to heaven?
      You will go down to the nether world.
 
For if the mighty deeds done in your midst had been done in Sodom,
   it would have remained until this day.
But I tell you, it will be more tolerable
   for the land of Sodom on the day of judgment than for you.”

Preacher: Grace Jungco Sabidolas

​Gospel: Matthew 10:34-11:1
 
Jesus said to his Apostles:
“Do not think that I have come to bring peace upon the earth.
I have come to bring not peace but the sword.
For I have come to set
   a man against his father,
      a daughter against her mother,
   and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law;
      and one’s enemies will be those of his household.
 
“Whoever loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me,
   and whoever loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me;
   and whoever does not take up his cross
   and follow after me is not worthy of me.
Whoever finds his life will lose it,
   and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.
 
“Whoever receives you receives me,
   and whoever receives me receives the one who sent me.
Whoever receives a prophet because he is a prophet
   will receive a prophet’s reward,
   and whoever receives a righteous man
   because he is righteous
   will receive a righteous man’s reward.
And whoever gives only a cup of cold water
   to one of these little ones to drink
   because he is a disciple--
   amen, I say to you, he will surely not lose his reward.”
 
When Jesus finished giving these commands to his Twelve disciples,
   he went away from that place to teach and to preach in their towns.

Preacher: Jay-anne Desabelle

​Gospel: Matthew 10:24-33
 
Jesus said to his Apostles:
“No disciple is above his teacher,
   no slave above his master.
It is enough for the disciple that he become like his teacher,
   for the slave that he become like his master.
If they have called the master of the house Beelzebul,
   how much more those of his household!
 
“Therefore do not be afraid of them.
Nothing is concealed that will not be revealed,
   nor secret that will not be known.
What I say to you in the darkness, speak in the light;
   what you hear whispered, proclaim on the housetops.
And do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul;
   rather, be afraid of the one who can destroy
   both soul and body in Gehenna.
Are not two sparrows sold for a small coin?
Yet not one of them falls to the ground without your Father’s knowledge.
Even all the hairs of your head are counted.
So do not be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.
Everyone who acknowledges me before others
   I will acknowledge before my heavenly Father.
But whoever denies me before others,
   I will deny before my heavenly Father.”

Preacher: Adriana Haro

​Gospel: Matthew 10:16-23
 
Jesus said to his Apostles:
“Behold, I am sending you like sheep in the midst of wolves;
   so be shrewd as serpents and simple as doves.
But beware of men,
   for they will hand you over to courts
   and scourge you in their synagogues,
   and you will be led before governors and kings for my sake
   as a witness before them and the pagans.
When they hand you over,
   do not worry about how you are to speak
   or what you are to say.
You will be given at that moment what you are to say.
For it will not be you who speak
   but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you.
Brother will hand over brother to death,
   and the father his child;
   children will rise up against parents and have them put to death.
You will be hated by all because of my name,
   but whoever endures to the end will be saved.
When they persecute you in one town, flee to another.
Amen, I say to you, you will not finish the towns of Israel
   before the Son of Man comes.”

Preacher: Jou Marquez

​Gospel: Matthew 10:7-15
 
Jesus said to his Apostles:
“As you go, make this proclamation:
   ‘The Kingdom of heaven is at hand.’
Cure the sick, raise the dead,
   cleanse the lepers, drive out demons.
Without cost you have received; without cost you are to give.
Do not take gold or silver or copper for your belts;
   no sack for the journey, or a second tunic,
   or sandals, or walking stick.
The laborer deserves his keep.
Whatever town or village you enter, look for a worthy person in it,
   and stay there until you leave.
As you enter a house, wish it peace.
If the house is worthy,
   let your peace come upon it;
   if not, let your peace return to you.
Whoever will not receive you or listen to your words--
   go outside that house or town and shake the dust from your feet.
Amen, I say to you, it will be more tolerable
   for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah on the day of judgment
   than for that town.”

Preacher: Ronan Capuras

​Gospel: Matthew 10:1-7
 
Jesus summoned his Twelve disciples
   and gave them authority over unclean spirits to drive them out
   and to cure every disease and every illness.
The names of the Twelve Apostles are these:
   first, Simon called Peter, and his brother Andrew;
   James, the son of Zebedee, and his brother John;
   Philip and Bartholomew,
   Thomas and Matthew the tax collector;
   James, the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddeus;
   Simon the Cananean, and Judas Iscariot
   who betrayed Jesus.
 
Jesus sent out these Twelve after instructing them thus,
   “Do not go into pagan territory or enter a Samaritan town.
Go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
As you go, make this proclamation: ‘The Kingdom of heaven is at hand.’”

​Gospel: Matthew 9:32-38
 
A demoniac who could not speak was brought to Jesus,
   and when the demon was driven out the mute man spoke.
The crowds were amazed and said,
   “Nothing like this has ever been seen in Israel.”
But the Pharisees said,
   “He drives out demons by the prince of demons.”
 
Jesus went around to all the towns and villages,
   teaching in their synagogues,
   proclaiming the Gospel of the Kingdom,
   and curing every disease and illness.
At the sight of the crowds, his heart was moved with pity for them
   because they were troubled and abandoned,
   like sheep without a shepherd.
Then he said to his disciples,
   “The harvest is abundant but the laborers are few;
   so ask the master of the harvest
   to send out laborers for his harvest.”

Preacher: Richard Cabarrubias

​Gospel: Matthew 9:18-26
 
While Jesus was speaking, an official came forward,
   knelt down before him, and said,
   “My daughter has just died.
But come, lay your hand on her, and she will live.”
Jesus rose and followed him, and so did his disciples.
A woman suffering hemorrhages for twelve years came up behind him
   and touched the tassel on his cloak.
She said to herself, “If only I can touch his cloak, I shall be cured.”
Jesus turned around and saw her, and said,
   “Courage, daughter! Your faith has saved you.”
And from that hour the woman was cured.
 
When Jesus arrived at the official’s house
   and saw the flute players and the crowd who were making a commotion,
   he said, “Go away! The girl is not dead but sleeping.”
And they ridiculed him.
When the crowd was put out, he came and took her by the hand,
   and the little girl arose.
And news of this spread throughout all that land.
