Catholic Liturgy: Readings for the 28th Sunday in Ordinary Time
Various religious communities and liturgical resources are observing the 28th Sunday in Ordinary Time. The readings for this day center on themes of divine invitation and spiritual readiness.
The Gospel, taken from Matthew 22:1-14, features the parable of the wedding banquet. In the story, a king prepares a feast for his son, but the original guests refuse to attend, leading the king to invite all those found on the streets, both good and bad. The parable concludes with a warning regarding a guest who is not wearing the proper wedding attire.
Other readings include the Book of Isaiah (25:6-10), which describes a feast prepared by the Lord for all peoples, and the Letter of Paul to the Philippians (4:12-14, 19-20), where Paul discusses finding strength in all circumstances. Psalm 23 is also utilized, focusing on the Lord as a shepherd.
Local celebrations and schedules are noted in regions such as Proença-a-Nova, Portugal, and through the Archdiocese of Curitiba, Brazil.
