December 6th : Gospel
The one lost sheep gives him more joy than the ninety-nine that did not stray
A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to St.Matthew 18:12-14
Jesus said to his disciples: ‘Tell me. Suppose a man has a hundred sheep and one of them strays; will he not leave the ninety-nine on the hillside and go in search of the stray? I tell you solemnly, if he finds it, it gives him more joy than do the ninety-nine that did not stray at all. Similarly, it is never the will of your Father in heaven that one of these little ones should be lost.’
The Word of the Lord.
