Responsorial Psalm: The Lord comes to rule the peoples with fairness. Gospel Acclamation: Alleluia, alleluia! Stay awake, praying at all times for the strength to stand with confidence before the Son of Man! Alleluia! Remembrance Sunday Lord, we remember those who died when madness ruled the world and evil dwelt on earth, those we knew and those whose very name is lost. Because of their sacrifice, may we renew our fight against cruelty and injustice, against prejudice, tyranny, and oppression. Still we cry to God out of the darkness of our divided world. Let not the hope of men and women perish. Let not new clouds rain death upon the earth. Turn to yourself the hearts and wills of rulers and peoples, so that a new world may arise where men and women live as friends in the bond of your peace. In a world still troubled with war, hatred and unrest, we pray for peace and unity... You have called us to be one, to live in unity and harmony, and yet we are divided; race from race, faith from faith, rich from poor, old from young; neighbour from neighbour. O Lord, by whose cross all enmity is brought to an end, break down the walls that separate us, tear down the fences of indifference and hatred; forgive us the sins that divide us, free us from pride and self-seeking; overcome our prejudices and fears. Give us courage to open ourselves to others, and by the power of your Spirit make us one. We ask this through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Some people love to be frightened into thinking that every flood, hurricane, war or earthquake is somehow a sign that the end of the world is about to hit us. They love to have something to worry about. I n today’s gospel Jesus tells us to be worried about three things. But they’re not the ones we expect to hear. First, he tells us to worry about being deceived. Make sure you’re not taken in by claims about the end of the world. If you believe that the predictions of Nostradamus or the prophecies of Malachy are true then it’s time to give in. You should worry, says Jesus, if you’re enticed by these claims to know about the future, by rumours, apparitions of gloom, or plagues and revolutions as forerunners of the end of TO WORRY ABOUT? the world. Yes, worry. Because if you put your trust in these predictions (which are always explained away when they fail to deliver) then you’re far away from trusting in God’s promises. You’ve already been tricked. S to worry, says Jesus, when you begin to fear that natural disasters have a sinister meaning. All sorts of fearful things take place in this world, but your endurance will win you your lives. T hirdly, Jesus implicitly tells us to worry if we econdly, worry about find that we’ve become disletting people disturb tracted. Today’s gospel is a plea to get things into perspective. Where are our priorities? Are we living our lives eating and drinking, so caught up in the ordinariness of daily existence, planning how to spend our lottery win, how to improve our garden and how to get the latest isound that we have lost the plot? If you want something to worry about, then worry about how you are preparing for the Second Coming of Jesus. you. The fact that terrorists exist doesn’t mean that one lives next door to you. The fact that people get shot and knifed doesn’t mean that it’s going to happen to r maybe that’s not as you or your family. The fact interesting as worrythat new strains of diseases ing about nothing or worrycome into being does not ing about something that mean that half the world is about to be wiped out.
