Philippians 3:17--4:1
3
17Brethren, join in imitating me, and mark those who so live as you have an example in us.
18For many, of whom I have often told you and now tell you even with tears, live as enemies of the cross of Christ.
19Their end is destruction, their god is the belly, and they glory in their shame, with minds set on earthly things.
20But our commonwealth is in heaven, and from it we await a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ,
21who will change our lowly body to be like his glorious body, by the power which enables him even to subject all things to himself.

1Therefore, my brethren, whom I love and long for, my joy and crown, stand firm thus in the Lord, my beloved.
Responsorial Psalm
Psalms 122:1-5
1I was glad when they said to me, “Let us go to the house of the LORD!”
2Our feet have been standing within your gates, O Jerusalem!
3Jerusalem, built as a city which is bound firmly together,
4to which the tribes go up, the tribes of the LORD, as was decreed for Israel, to give thanks to the name of the LORD.
5There thrones for judgment were set, the thrones of the house of David.
Gospel
Luke 16:1-8
1He also said to the disciples, “There was a rich man who had a steward, and charges were brought to him that this man was wasting his goods.
2And he called him and said to him, ‘What is this that I hear about you? Turn in the account of your stewardship, for you can no longer be steward.’
3And the steward said to himself, ‘What shall I do, since my master is taking the stewardship away from me? I am not strong enough to dig, and I am ashamed to beg.
4I have decided what to do, so that people may receive me into their houses when I am put out of the stewardship.’
5So, summoning his master’s debtors one by one, he said to the first, ‘How much do you owe my master?’
6He said, ‘A hundred measures of oil.’ And he said to him, ‘Take your bill, and sit down quickly and write fifty.’
7Then he said to another, ‘And how much do you owe?’ He said, ‘A hundred measures of wheat.’ He said to him, ‘Take your bill, and write eighty.’
8The master commended the dishonest steward for his prudence; for the sons of this world are wiser in their own generation than the sons of light.

Romans 12:3-13
3For by the grace given to me I bid every one among you not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think with sober judgment, each according to the measure of faith which God has assigned him.
4For as in one body we have many members, and all the members do not have the same function,
5so we, though many, are one body in Christ, and individually members one of another.
6Having gifts that differ according to the grace given to us, let us use them: if prophecy, in proportion to our faith;
7if service, in our serving; he who teaches, in his teaching;
8he who exhorts, in his exhortation; he who contributes, in liberality; he who gives aid, with zeal; he who does acts of mercy, with cheerfulness.
9Let love be genuine; hate what is evil, hold fast to what is good;
10love one another with brotherly affection; outdo one another in showing honor.
11Never flag in zeal, be aglow with the Spirit, serve the Lord.
12Rejoice in your hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer.
13Contribute to the needs of the saints, practice hospitality.
Responsorial Psalm
Psalms 89:2-5, 21-22, 25, 27
1I will sing of thy steadfast love, O LORD, for ever; with my mouth I will proclaim thy faithfulness to all generations.
2For thy steadfast love was established for ever, thy faithfulness is firm as the heavens.
3Thou hast said, “I have made a covenant with my chosen one, I have sworn to David my servant:
4‘I will establish your descendants for ever, and build your throne for all generations.’ ” Selah
20I have found David, my servant; with my holy oil I have anointed him;
21so that my hand shall ever abide with him, my arm also shall strengthen him.
24My faithfulness and my steadfast love shall be with him, and in my name shall his horn be exalted.
26He shall cry to me, ‘Thou art my Father, my God, and the Rock of my salvation.’
Gospel
John 10:11-16
11I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.
12He who is a hireling and not a shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, sees the wolf coming and leaves the sheep and flees; and the wolf snatches them and scatters them.
13He flees because he is a hireling and cares nothing for the sheep.
14I am the good shepherd; I know my own and my own know me,
15as the Father knows me and I know the Father; and I lay down my life for the sheep.
16And I have other sheep, that are not of this fold; I must bring them also, and they will heed my voice. So there shall be one flock, one shepherd.
