First Reading
Philippians 2: 1-4
1If there is any encouragement in Christ, any solace in love, any participation in the Spirit, any compassion and mercy,
2complete my joy by being of the same mind, with the same love, united in heart, thinking one thing.
3Do nothing out of selfishness or out of vainglory; rather, humbly regard others as more important than yourselves,
4each looking out not for his own interests, but [also] everyone for those of others.
Responsorial Psalm
Psalms 131: 1bcde, 2, 3
1Psalm 131 Humble Trust in God - A song of ascents. Of David. LORD, my heart is not proud; nor are my eyes haughty. I do not busy myself with great matters, with things too sublime for me.
2Rather, I have stilled my soul, Like a weaned child to its mother, weaned is my soul.
3Israel, hope in the LORD, now and forever.
Alleluia

Gospel
Luke 14: 12-14
12Then he said to the host who invited him, “When you hold a lunch or a dinner, do not invite your friends or your brothers or your relatives or your wealthy neighbors, in case they may invite you back and you have repayment.
13Rather, when you hold a banquet, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind;
14blessed indeed will you be because of their inability to repay you. For you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous.” The Parable of the Great Feast.
