Mt 23:1-12

Jesus warns the crowds including his disciples to avoid the religious style and practices of the scribes and Pharisees. Listen but don’t imitate, he tells them. Their practices are showy and done in such a way as to call attention only to themselves.

We pray for our Church leaders, ordained and lay, that their words and actions hold true to you and to your mission.
