Sixth Sunday in Ordinary Time - February 15, 2026
Keeping the commandments will save us, Sirach says in the first reading, for God's wisdom is infinite and all-powerful. In the Gospel, Jesus expands on four commandments in particular laying out their implications and explaining the spirit of each. For those who take the commandments to heart, the kingdom of heaven awaits. Let s examine our consciences, conscious that we have the power to choose between good and evil, between life and death.
