Summary
Every day, Mass is celebrated at St. Dominic’s Chapel at the Chancery Offices of the Archdiocese of Atlanta. The following is a recording of today’s readings and homily from a previous year. You may recognize voices proclaiming the readings and homilies as employees, former employees, or friends of the Archdiocese. Today’s homily is given by Fr. Gerardo Ceballos Gonzalez from May 15, 2024. Reading 1 Acts 20:28-38 At Miletus, Paul spoke to the presbyters of the Church of Ephesus: “Keep watch over yourselves and over the whole flock of which the Holy Spirit has appointed you overseers, in which you tend the Church of God that he acquired with his own Blood.

And from your own group, men will come forward perverting the truth to draw the disciples away after them. So be vigilant and remember that for three years, night and day, I unceasingly admonished each of you with tears. And now I commend you to God and to that gracious word of his that can build you up and give you the inheritance among all who are consecrated. I have never wanted anyone’s silver or gold or clothing. You know well that these very hands have served my needs and my companions. In every way I have shown you that by hard work of that sort we must help the weak, and keep in mind the words of the Lord Jesus who himself said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’” When he had finished speaking he knelt down and prayed with them all. They were all weeping loudly as they threw their arms around Paul and kissed him, for they were deeply distressed that he had said that they would never see his face again. Then they escorted him to the ship. Responsorial Psalm 68:29-30, 33-35a, 35bc-36ab Sing to God, O k…
