The 11th of October, 2022 is Tuesday in the Twenty-Eighth Week of Ordinary Time. The Holy Bible verses for the mass readings for this day came from the Liturgical Calendar of the Year 2022.
Reading 1: GAL 5:1-6
The first reading from the Letter of Saint Paul to the Galatians.
Stand firm therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and don’t be entangled again with a yoke of bondage.
Behold, I, Paul, tell you that if you receive circumcision, Christ will profit you nothing.
Yes, I testify again to every man who receives circumcision that he is a debtor to do the whole law.
You are alienated from Christ, you who desire to be justified by the law. You have fallen away from grace.
For we through the Spirit, by faith wait for the hope of righteousness.
For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision amounts to anything, but faith working through love.

Gospel of the Day: LK 11:37-41
From the gospel scripture according to Luke.
Now as he spoke, a certain Pharisee asked him to dine with him. He went in and sat at the table.
When the Pharisee saw it, he marveled that he had not first washed himself before dinner.
The Lord said to him, “Now you Pharisees cleanse the outside of the cup and of the platter, but your inward part is full of extortion and wickedness.
You foolish ones, didn’t he who made the outside make the inside also?
But give for gifts to the needy those things which are within, and behold, all things will be clean to you.”
Other Celebration
An optional celebration on this day is the Memorial of Saint John XXIII, Pope.
