Let us listen to the Holy Gospel according to Saint Matthew, chapter 6, verses 1 to 6 and 16 to 18

Good morning, brothers and sisters in faith.

Today, Wednesday, June 17.

On this new day, Jesus reminds us that acts of charity, prayer, and sacrifice have true value when they come from a sincere heart and seek to please God rather than people.

Let us listen to the Holy Gospel according to Saint Matthew, chapter 6, verses 1 to 6 and 16 to 18.

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Jesus said to His disciples:

"Take care not to practice your righteousness before others in order to be seen by them. Otherwise, you will have no reward from your heavenly Father.

Therefore, when you give alms, do not sound a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, so that they may be honored by others.

Truly, I tell you, they have already received their reward.

But when you give alms, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your almsgiving may remain in secret. And your Father, who sees in secret, will reward you.

When you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, who love to stand and pray in the synagogues and on street corners so that people may see them.

Truly, I tell you, they have already received their reward.

But when you pray, go into your room, close the door, and pray to your Father who is in secret. And your Father, who sees in secret, will reward you.

When you fast, do not look gloomy like the hypocrites, who disfigure their faces to show others that they are fasting.

Truly, I tell you, they have already received their reward.

But when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face, so that your fasting may be seen not by others but by your Father who is in secret. And your Father, who sees in secret, will reward you."

The Gospel of the Lord.

Praise to You, Lord Jesus Christ.
