Oct. 5 Twenty-Seventh Sunday in Ordinary Time, Sunday

Gospel Excerpt, Lk 17:5-10: “If one of you had a servant plowing or herding sheep and he came in from the fields, would you say to him, ‘Come and sit down at table’? Would you not rather say, ‘Prepare my supper. Put on your apron and wait on me while I eat and drink. You can eat and drink afterward’?

When you have done all you have been commanded to do, say, ‘We are useless servants. We have done no more than our duty (Lk 17:7-10).'”
