Petak dvadeset i četvrtog tjedna kroz godinu

The Diocese of Požega released its liturgical readings and reflections for Friday of the twenty-fourth week of the year. The scheduled readings include 1 Kor 15, 12-20, Ps 16, and Lk 8, 1-3.

The Gospel passage describes Jesus traveling through cities and villages to preach the kingdom of God alongside the twelve apostles. The text notes that several women, including Marija zvana Magdalena, Ivana, and Suzana, accompanied him and supported his ministry using their own resources after being healed of illnesses or evil spirits.

In its reflection, the diocese notes that Jesus' presence brings the kingdom of God through healing and conversion. The text suggests that the women mentioned in the Gospel responded to Jesus' help with gratitude, choosing to follow him and share their possessions as a witness of faith.
