Gospel Luke 21:5-19

While some people were speaking about how the temple was adorned with costly stones and votive offerings,

Jesus said, "All that you see here--the days will come when there will not be left a stone upon another stone

that will not be thrown down."

Then they asked him, "Teacher, when will this happen? And what sign will there be when all these things are

about to happen?" He answered, "See that you not be deceived, for many will come in my name, saying, 'I am

he,' and 'The time has come.' Do not follow them! When you hear of wars and insurrections, do not be

terrified; for such things must happen first, but it will not immediately be the end." Then he said to them,

"Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be powerful earthquakes, famines,

and plagues from place to place; and awesome sights and mighty signs will come from the sky.

"Before all this happens, however, they will seize and persecute you, they will hand you over to the

synagogues and to prisons, and they will have you led before kings and governors because of my name.

It will lead to your giving testimony. Remember, you are not to prepare your defense beforehand, for I myself

shall give you a wisdom in speaking that all your adversaries will be powerless to resist or refute. You will

even be handed over by parents, brothers, relatives, and friends, and they will put some of you to death. You

will be hated by all because of my name, but not a hair on your head will be destroyed. By your perseverance

you will secure your lives."

Employment Opportunities at Catholic Cemeteries As part of the Archdiocese of Washington, Catholic cemeteries and family counselors consider it a privileged

ministry to assist families in a respectful, professional and ethical way. In his Apostolic Exhortation Gaudete

et Exsultate, Pope Francis writes of the beatitude of those who “are unafraid to share in the suffering” and

“know how to mourn with others.” If you or someone you know in the parish is interested in the work of the

Catholic Cemeteries of the Archdiocese of Washington, visit the employment opportunities section of the

CCAW website: http://ccaw.org/about_employment.html.
