Homily - 32nd Sunday in Ordinary Time 10th November

The Entrance Antiphon for Mass today says this, from Psalm 87 -

"Let my prayer come into your presence,
Incline your ear to my cry for help, O Lord. "

Here we are at Mass in God's house, a house of prayer, a house of prayers.

We ask God to turn his ear to us to hear all the praying we will do in Church.

Notice how personal the verse from the Psalm is - Let MY prayer... Coming to Mass gives us the supreme privilege and opportunity of being with the others in the community who want to pray and who gather with us. We are offering our personal prayers they are offering their personal prayers, and the Mass offers the prayer of the whole community and Church and World. What a great experience it is to be in the house of God, to be in the house of prayers.

We should enjoy our time in the house of prayers and use our time here to pray. To make sure that we bring to God all that is in our hearts and to bring all the worries in our minds and to ask for God and His peace to live in our souls no matter what is going on.

Let us use today for our prayers. Prayers for our family members and friends, prayers for ourselves and the world, prayers for peace on earth and in our hearts. What a great time the time of prayer is here in the house of prayers.

"Let my prayer come into your presence,
Incline your ear to my cry for help, O Lord."
