After Eastertide and the great mid-year Solemnities of Pentecost, Trinity Sunday and Corpus Christi, we settle into some 20 weeks or so of Ordinary Time. In this second part of Year A (weeks 12 – 24), we resume our journey through Matthew’s Gospel. from the commissioning of the Apostles {Matt 9:36 – 10:8} to the great parable of the unforgiving servant. {Matt 18:21-35}
The responsorial psalms continue to provide a beautiful soundtrack for us to meditate on the Word more deeply and the readings unfold through the cycle of the Lectionary.
