SUNDAY 8th NOVEMBER 2026
Thirty-Second Sunday in Ordinary Time
Why don’t the five wise virgins share their oil with the five foolish ones? Because it represents our love for Christ. We cannot substitute someone else’s personal union with Jesus for our own. Fortunately, such wisdom is not a secret commodity only attainable by a few, but is “easily discerned by those who love her and is found by those who seek her.” If only the foolish virgins had remained and confessed, “Lord, Lord, we have been foolish. But we know that you yourself can be our light! Have mercy on us!” Jesus Christ, the Bridegroom, “with a cry of command” can wake us up and take us to be with himself. If we bless him while we live and call upon his name, it will not be in vain.

For the care of water.
Let us pray for a just and sustainable management of water, a vital resource, so that everyone may have equal access to it.
OCTOBER 2026
For mental health ministry.
Let us pray that the mental health ministry be established throughout the Church, helping to overcome the stigma and discrimination of persons with mental illnesses.
NOVEMBER 2026
For the proper use of wealth.
Let us pray for the proper use of wealth, that not succumbing to the temptation of selfishness,
it may always be put at the service the common good and solidarity of those who have less.

For single-parent families.
Let us pray for families experiencing the absence of a mother or father, that they may find
support and accompaniment in the Church, and help and strength in the Faith during difficult
times.
