SEVENTEENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME Gloria Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to people of good will. We praise you, we bless you, we adore you, we glorify you, we give you thanks for your great glory, Lord God, heavenly King, O God, almighty Father. Lord Jesus Christ, Only Be- gotten Son, Lord God, Lamb of God, Son of the Father, you take away the sins of the world, have mercy on us; you take away the sins of the world, receive our prayer; you are seated at the right hand of the Father, have mercy on us. For you alone are the Holy One, you alone are the Lord, you alone are the Most High, Jesus Christ, with the Holy Spirit, in the glory of God the Father. Amen. First Reading (Gen 18:20-32) A reading from the book of Genesis. The Lord said, “How great an outcry there is against Sodom and Gomorrah! How grievous is their sin! I propose to go down and see whether or not they have done all that is alleged in the outcry against them that has come up to me. I am deter- mined to know.” The men left there and went to Sodom while Abra- ham remained standing before the Lord. Approach- ing him he said, “Are you really going to destroy the just man with the sinner? Perhaps there are fifty just men in the town. Will you really overwhelm them, will you not spare the place for the fifty just men in it? Do not think of doing such a thing: to kill the just man with the sinner, treating just and sin- ner alike! Do not think of it! Will the judge of the whole earth not administer justice?” The Lord re- plied, “If at Sodom I find fifty just men in the town, I will spare the whole place because of them.” Abraham replied, “I am bold indeed to speak like this to my Lord, I who am dust and ashes. But perhaps the fifty just men lack five: will you destroy the whole city for five?” “No,” he replied, “I will not destroy it if I find forty-five just men there.” Again Abraham said to him, “Perhaps there will only be forty there.” “I will not do it” he replied “for the sake of the forty.” Abraham said, “I trust my Lord will not be angry, but give me leave to speak: perhaps there will only be thirty there.” “I will not do it” he replied “if I find thirty there.” He said, “I am bold indeed to speak like this, but perhaps there will only be twenty there.” “I will not destroy it” he replied “for the sake of the twenty.” He said, “I trust my Lord will not be angry if I speak once more: perhaps there will only be ten.” “I will not destroy it” he replied “for the sake of the ten.” The word of the Lord Thanks be to God Responsorial Psalm R: On the day I called, you answered me, O Lord. I thank you, Lord, with all my heart, you have heard the words of my mouth. Before the angels I will bless you. I will adore before your holy temple. R I thank you for your faithfulness and love which excel all we ever knew of you. On the day I called, you answered; you increased the strength of my soul. R The Lord is high yet he looks on the lowly and the haughty he knows from afar Though I walk in the midst of affliction you give me life and frustrate my foes. R You stretch out your hand and save me, your hand will do all things for me. Your love, O Lord, is eternal, discard not the work of your hands. R Second Reading (Col 2:12-14) A reading from the letter of St Paul to the Colos- sians. You have been buried with Christ, when you were baptised; and by baptism, too, you have been raised up with him through your belief in the power of God who raised him from the dead. You were dead, because you were sinners and had not been circumcised: he has brought you to life with him, he has forgiven us all our sins. He has overridden the Law, and cancelled every record of the debt that we had to pay; he has done away with it by nailing it to the cross. The word of the Lord. Thanks be to God. Gospel Acclamation Alleluia, alleluia! The Word was made flesh and lived among us; to all who did accept him he gave power to become children of God. Alleluia! Gospel (Jn 1:14.12) A reading from the holy Gospel according to Luke. Once Jesus was in a certain place praying, and when he had finished, one of his disciples said, “Lord, teach us to pray, just as John taught his disciples.” He said to them, “Say this when you pray: „Father, may your name be held holy, your kingdom come; give us each day our daily bread, and forgive us our sins, for we ourselves forgive each one who is in debt to us. And do not put us to the test.‟” He also said to them, “Suppose one of you has a friend and goes to him in the middle of the night to say, „My friend, lend me three loaves because a friend of mine on his travels has just arrived at my house and I have nothing to offer him‟; and the man answers from inside the house, „Do not bother me. The door is bolted now, and my children and I are in bed; I cannot get up to give it to you,‟ I tell you, if the man does not get up and give it to him for friendship‟s sake, persistence will be enough to make him get up and give his friend all he wants. “So I say to you: Ask, and it will be given to you; search, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened to you. For the one who asks always receives; the one who searches always finds; the one who knocks will always have the door opened to him. What father among you would hand his son a stone when he asked for bread? Or hand him a snake instead of a fish? Or hand him a scorpion if he asked for an egg? If you then, who are evil, know how to give your children what is good, how much more will the heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!” The Gospel of the Lord. Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ. Profession of Faith I believe in one God, the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible and invisible. I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God, born of the Father before all ages. God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father; through him all things were made. For us and for our salvation he came down from heaven, and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Vir- gin Mary, and became man. For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate, he suffered death and was buried, and rose again on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures. He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead and his kingdom will have no end. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with the Fa- ther and the Son is adored and glorified, who has spoken through the prophets. I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic church. I con- fess one Baptism for the forgiveness of sins and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come. Amen Hymns Give Me Joy Give me joy in my heart, Keep me praising, Give me joy in my heart, I pray. Give me joy in my heart, keep me praising. Keep me praising „till the break of day. Sing hosanna, sing hosanna, Sing hosanna to the King of kings! Sing hosanna, sing hosanna, Sing hosanna to the King. Give me peace in my heart keep me resting ……. Give me love in my heart keep me serving ………. I Am The Bread Of Life I am the bread of life. He who comes to me shall not hunger He who believes in me shall not thirst No one can come to me Unless the father draw him And I will raise him up And I will raise him up And I will raise him up on the last day. The bread that I will give Is my flesh for the life of the world And he who eats of this bread, He shall live forever He shall live forever. How Great Thou Art O Lord my God, When I in awesome wonder Consider all The Worlds Tht Hand hath made, I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder, Thy pow‟r throughout The universe displayed Then sings my soul, my saviour God to Thee, How great Thou art!

The Croagh Patrick pilgrim- age is associated with St Patrick who, in 441, spent 40 days and nights fasting on the summit, following the example of Christ and Moses. The name ‘Reek Sunday’ comes from Patrick’s ability to Christianise many pagan customs including the festival of Lughnasa, which pre- viously had heralded the start of the harvest festival honouring the ancient pagan god Lugh, whose name is encompassed in the Irish word for August: Lughnasa. This festival’s tradition became absorbed into the new Christian beliefs and locally become known as Domhnach na Cruaiche (Reek Sunday).

kingdom come; give us each day our daily bread,
and forgive us our sins, for we ourselves forgive
each one who is in debt to us.
And do not put us to the test.‟”

friend and goes to him in the middle of the night to
say, „My friend, lend me three loaves because a
friend of mine on his travels has just arrived at my
house and I have nothing to offer him‟; and the man
answers from inside the house, „Do not bother me.

in bed; I cannot get up to give it to you,‟ I tell you, if
the man does not get up and give it to him for
friendship‟s sake, persistence will be enough to
make him get up and give his friend all he wants.
“So I say to you: Ask, and it will be given to you;
search, and you will find; knock, and the door will
be opened to you. For the one who asks always

one who knocks will always have the door opened

Papal Visits
In 1979 Saint John Paul II visited Knock shrine where he declared:”Our Lady of Knock to be the Mother of the Eucharist”
During his visit he elevated Knock’s new Church of Our Lady Queen of Ireland to the prestigious status of Basilica. Saint John Paul presented a golden rose saying:
“I am happy to offer as my personal tribute and as a gift to the Shrine of Knock a Rose in Gold which will remain my personal tribute and testimony of gratitude to Mary, Mother of the Heavenly and Earthly Church”
On the 22nd of August 2018 Pope Francis visited Knock Shrine on the occasion of the World Meeting of Families. In the apparition Chapel Pope Francis spent time in silent prayer and reflection, lit a special candle and then pre-sented the candle and a beautiful Rosary beads. These gifts presented by the two popes are on display at the outer east wall of Knock parish Church.
In a booklet by Fr. B Walsh in 1985 he described the apparition: “If all the Bishops and Theologians at Vati-can II were to remain there till the end of time in an effort to epitomise the whole Paschal Mystery in a compelling visual symbol, they could never have come up with any-thing to equal the one that God gave us in the Apparition at the gable-end of the little church at Knock in 1879”
