| Feast of St. Luke |
The Lord appointed seventy-two others and sent them out ahead of him,
in pairs, to all the towns and places he himself was to visit. He said to them, 'The harvest is rich but the labourers are few, so ask the Lord of the harvest
to send labourers to his harvest.
Start off now, but remember, I am sending you out like lambs among wolves.
Carry no purse, no haversack, no sandals. Salute no one on the road. Whatever house you go into, let your first words be, "peace to this house!" And if a man of peace lives there, your peace will go and rest on him; if not, it will come back to you.
Stay in the same house, taking what food and drink they have to offer, for
the labourers deserve his wages; do not move from house to house. Whenever you go into a town where they make you welcome, eat what is set before you.
Cure those who are sick, and say, "The kingdom of God is very near to you".
Heavenly Father, make me an instrument for your glory.
Lord Jesus Christ, you warned about
us about the danger, that there will be wolves.
May God's Holy Spirit guide and direct us.
