Today, as always, the good Lord continues to ask: “Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?” The Lord still needs messengers, men and women who, like Isaiah, will proclaim the Good News of God's love in the temple, or who, like Paul, will announce it in foreign lands to the ends of the earth, or who, like Peter, will speak up for God in the workplace and bring their coworkers and business partners to know and follow the Lord. If we feel unworthy and incompetent for the work of God, know that it is only people who feel that way that God can use. All that remains is for you to take the risk and say, “Here am I; send me!” The Lord himself will see to it that He renders you fit for the job He wants you to do for Him, as He did with Isaiah, with Paul, and with Peter.

Dear Jesus, help me to spread your fragrance everywhere I go. Flood my soul with your spirit and

love. Penetrate and possess my whole being so utterly that all my life may only be a radiance of You.

Shine through me and be so in me that every soul I come in contact with may feel Your presence in

my soul. Let them look up and see no longer me but only Jesus. Stay with me and then I shall begin

to shine as you shine, so to shine as to be a light to others. Amen.

GATHERING

Reading 1 ISAIAH 6:1-2A, 3 -8

In the year King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord seated on a high and lofty throne, with the train of his

garment filling the temple. Seraphim were stationed above.

They cried one to the other, "Holy, holy, holy is the LORD of hosts! All the earth is filled with his

glory!" At the sound of that cry, the frame of the door shook and the house was filled with smoke.

Then I said, "Woe is me, I am doomed! For I am a man of unclean lips, living among a people of

unclean lips; yet my eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts!" Then one of the seraphim flew

to me, holding an ember that he had taken with tongs from the altar.

He touched my mouth with it, and said, "See, now that this has touched your lips, your wickedness is

removed, your sin purged."

Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, "Whom shall I send? Who will go for us?" "Here I am,"

I said; "send me!"

Hear what the spirit is saying to the church.

Thanks be to God

Responsorial Psalm PALMS 138:1-2 , 2-3 , 4-5 , 7-8

R. In the sight of the angels I will sing your praises, Lord.

I will give thanks to you, O LORD, with all my heart, for you have heard the words of my mouth; in

the presence of the angels I will sing your praise; I will worship at your holy temple and give thanks

to your name.

R. In the sight of the angels I will sing your praises, Lord.

Because of your kindness and your truth; for you have made great above all things your name and

your promise. When I called, you answered me; you built up strength within me.

R. In the sight of the angels I will sing your praises, Lord.

All the kings of the earth shall give thanks to you, O LORD, when they hear the words of your mouth;

and they shall sing of the ways of the LORD: "Great is the glory of the LORD."

R. In the sight of the angels I will sing your praises, Lord.

Your right hand saves me. The LORD will complete what he has done for me; your kindness, O

LORD, endures forever; forsake not the work of your hands.

R. In the sight of the angels I will sing your praises, Lord.

SPANISH TEXT FOLLOWS THE ENGLISH

Reading 2 1 CORINTHIANS 15:1-11

I am reminding you, brothers and sisters, of the gospel I preached to you, which you indeed

received and in which you also stand. Through it you are also being saved, if you hold fast to the

word I preached to you, unless you believed in vain. For I handed on to you as of first importance

what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures; that he was

buried; that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures; that he appeared to

Cephas, then to the Twelve. After that, Christ appeared to more than five hundred brothers at once,

most of whom are still living, though some have fallen asleep. After that he appeared to James, then

to all the apostles. Last of all, as to one born abnormally, he appeared to me. For I am the least of the

apostles, not fit to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. But by the grace of

God I am what I am, and his grace to me has not been ineffective. Indeed, I have toiled harder than

all of them; not I, however, but the grace of God that is with me. Therefore, whether it be I or they, so

we preach and so you believed.

Hear what the spirit is saying to the church.

Thanks Be To God

Gospel LUKE 5:1-11

While the crowd was pressing in on Jesus and listening to the word of God, he was standing by

the Lake of Gennesaret. He saw two boats there alongside the lake; the fishermen had disembarked

and were washing their nets. Getting into one of the boats, the one belonging to Simon, he asked him

to put out a short distance from the shore. Then he sat down and taught the crowds from the boat.

After he had finished speaking, he said to Simon, "Put out into deep water and lower your nets for a

catch." Simon said in reply, "Master, we have worked hard all night and have caught nothing,

but at your command I will lower the nets." When they had done this, they caught a great number of

fish and their nets were tearing. They signaled to their partners in the other boat

to come to help them. They came and filled both boats so that the boats were in danger of sinking.

When Simon Peter saw this, he fell at the knees of Jesus and said, "Depart from me, Lord, for I am a

sinful man." For astonishment at the catch of fish they had made seized him

and all those with him, and likewise James and John, the sons of Zebedee,

who were partners of Simon. Jesus said to Simon, "Do not be afraid;

from now on you will be catching men." When they brought their boats to the shore,

they left everything and followed him.

This is the Gospel of the Lord

Praise to you Lord Jesus Christ

Question of the Week:

How am I called to transform my

life? Have I already transformed my

life and feel called to encourage others

to do so as well?

V Domingo Ordinario

Primera lectura Is 6, 1-2a. 3-8

El año de la muerte del rey Ozías, vi al Señor, sentado sobre un trono muy alto y magnífico. La

orla de su manto llenaba el templo. Había dos serafines junto a él, con seis alas cada uno, que se

gritaban el uno al otro:

“Santo, santo, santo es el Señor, Dios de los ejércitos; su gloria llena toda la tierra”.

Temblaban las puertas al clamor de su voz y el templo se llenaba de humo. Entonces exclamé:

“¡Ay de mí!, estoy perdido, porque soy un hombre de labios impuros, que habito en medio de un

pueblo de labios impuros, porque he visto con mis ojos al Rey y Señor de los ejércitos”.

Después voló hacia mí uno de los serafines. Llevaba en la mano una brasa, que había tomado del

altar con unas tenazas. Con la brasa me tocó la boca, diciéndome:

“Mira: Esto ha tocado tus labios. Tu iniquidad ha sido quitada y tus pecados están perdonados”.

Escuché entonces la voz del Señor que decía: “¿A quién enviaré? ¿Quién irá de parte mía?” Yo le

respondí: “Aquí estoy, Señor, envíame”.

Segunda Lectura 1 Cor 15, 1-11

Hermanos: Les recuerdo el Evangelio que yo les prediqué y que ustedes aceptaron y en el cual

están firmes. Este Evangelio los salvará, si lo cumplen tal y como yo lo prediqué. De otro modo,

habrán creído en vano.

Les transmití, ante todo, lo que yo mismo recibí: que Cristo murió por nuestros pecados, como

dicen las Escrituras; que fue sepultado y que resucitó al tercer día, según estaba escrito; que se le

apareció a Pedro y luego a los Doce; después se apareció a más de quinientos hermanos reunidos, la

mayoría de los cuales vive aún y otros ya murieron. Más tarde se le apareció a Santiago y luego a

todos los apóstoles.

Finalmente, se me apareció también a mí, que soy como un aborto. Porque yo perseguí a la Iglesia

de Dios y por eso soy el último de los apóstoles e indigno de llamarme apóstol. Sin embargo, por la

gracia de Dios, soy lo que soy, y su gracia no ha sido estéril en mí; al contrario, he trabajado más que

todos ellos, aunque no he sido yo, sino la gracia de Dios, que está conmigo. De cualquier manera, sea

yo, sean ellos, esto es lo que nosotros predicamos y esto mismo lo que ustedes han creído.

Evangelio Lc 5, 1-11

En aquel tiempo, Jesús estaba a orillas del lago de Genesaret y la gente se agolpaba en torno suyo

para oír la palabra de Dios. Jesús vio dos barcas que estaban junto a la orilla. Los pescadores habían

desembarcado y estaban lavando las redes. Subió Jesús a una de las barcas, la de Simón, le pidió que

la alejara un poco de tierra, y sentado en la barca, enseñaba a la multitud.

Cuando acabó de hablar, dijo a Simón: “Lleva la barca mar adentro y echen sus redes para

pescar”. Simón replicó: “Maestro, hemos trabajado toda la noche y no hemos pescado nada; pero,

confiado en tu palabra, echaré las redes”. Así lo hizo y cogieron tal cantidad de pescados, que las

redes se rompían. Entonces hicieron señas a sus compañeros, que estaban en la otra barca, para que

vinieran a ayudarlos. Vinieron ellos y llenaron tanto las dos barcas, que casi se hundían.

Al ver esto, Simón Pedro se arrojó a los pies de Jesús y le dijo: “¡Apártate de mí, Señor, porque

soy un pecador!” Porque tanto él como sus compañeros estaban llenos de asombro al ver la pesca que

habían conseguido. Lo mismo les pasaba a Santiago y a Juan, hijos de Zebedeo, que eran compañeros

de Simón.

Entonces Jesús le dijo a Simón: “No temas; desde ahora serás pescador de hombres”. Luego

llevaron las barcas a tierra y, dejándolo todo, lo siguieron.

SENDING

2. A rich young person came to Jesus looking for advice. "How can I obtain eternal life?" Jesus told him, "Honor the commandments of the Lord. Then sell off all your riches for the poor." And Jesus said, REFRAIN: "Oh, come and follow me. Oh, leave behind your nets. I call you. Oh, come and fish with me, and your life will never be the same again."
