TWENTY-EIGHTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME C Lectionary #144
What kind of healing do we need? And how do we give thanks to God for being made whole?
2 Kings 5:14-17. Any kind of skin disease separated a person from the community. That was the case outside Israel as well, and it drove people crazy looking for a cure. At the word of his servant girl, the mighty Naaman came from Syria seeking Elisha and an end to his affliction.
Psalm of the Day: Ps (97) 98. This enthronement hymn, hailing the God of Israel, invites all the nations to join in praise of God's saving deeds.

Suggested Common Psalm
Ps (97) 98: All the Ends of the Earth
2 Timothy 2:8–13. In prison, Paul reiterates his basic message and then reflects on its meaning: God in Christ is faithful, and so we should be faithful to God.
Luke 17:11–19. Notice that Jesus does not take back the cure because nine of the ten lepers did not give thanks. As Paul says in the second reading, God remains faithful. But offering thanks is the appropriate response to God's mercy.
