Gospel 3-4 January 2026 - The Epiphany of the Lord, Yr A.
<p>Homily by Father Peter Zwaans </p><p>Mount Gambier Catholic Parish</p><p><br></p><p>Gospel according to Matthew 2: 1-12</p><p><br></p><p>After Jesus had been born at Bethlehem in Judaea during the reign of King Herod, some wise men came to Jerusalem from the east. ‘Where is the infant king of the Jews/’ they asked. ‘We saw his star as it rose and have come to do him homage.’ When King Herod heard this he was perturbed, and so was the whole of Jerusalem. He called together all the chief priests and the scribes of the people, and enquired of them</p><p>where the Christ was to be born. ‘At Bethlehem in Judaea,’ they told him ‘for this is what the prophet wrote: “And you, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, you are by no means least among the leaders of Judah, for out of you will come a leader who will shepherd my people Israel”’</p><p>Then Herod summoned the wise men to see him privately. He asked them the exact date on which the star had appeared, and sent them to Bethlehem. ‘Go and find out all about the child’, he said ‘and when you have found him, let me know, so that I too may go and do him homage.’ Having listened to what the king had to say, they set out. And there in front of them was the star they had seen rising; it went forward and</p><p>halted over the place where the child was. The sight of the star filled them with delight, and going into the house they saw the child with his mother Mary, and falling to their knees they did him homage. Then, opening their treasures, they offered him gifts of gold and frankincense and myrrh. But they were warned in a dream not to go back to Herod, and returned to their own country by a different way.</p><p><br></p><p>The Gospel of the Lord.</p><p>R/ Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.</p>

Gospel 28 December 2025 - Feast of the Holy Family, Yr A.
<p>Homily by Father Peter Zwaans </p><p>Mount Gambier Catholic Parish</p><p><br></p><p>Gospel according to Matthew 2:13-15,19-23</p><p><br></p><p>After the wise men had left, the angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream and said, ‘Get up, take the child and his mother with you, and escape into Egypt, and stay there until I tell you, because Herod</p><p>intends to search for the child and do away with him.’</p><p>So, Joseph got up and, taking the child and his mother with him, left that night for Egypt, where he stayed until Herod was dead. This was to fulfil what the Lord had spoken through the prophet: I called my son out of Egypt.</p><p>After Herod’s death, the angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt and said, ‘Get up, take the child and his mother with you and go back to the land of Israel, for those who wanted to kill the child are dead.’ So, Joseph got up and, taking the child and his mother with him, went back to the land of Israel. But when he learnt that Archelaus had succeeded his father Herod as ruler of Judaea he was afraid to go there, and being warned in a dream he left for the region of Galilee. There he settled in a town called Nazareth. In this way the words spoken through the prophets were to be fulfilled: ‘He will be called a Nazarene.’</p><p><br></p><p>The Gospel of the Lord.</p><p>R/ Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.</p>

Gospel 25-28 December 2025 - Christmas & Feast of the Holy Family, Yr A
<p>Homily by Father Peter Zwaans </p><p>Mount Gambier Catholic Parish</p><p><br></p><p>Gospel according to Luke 2:1-14</p><p><br></p><p>Caesar Augustus issued a decree for a census of the whole world to be taken. This census – the first – took place while Quirinius was governor of Syria, and everyone went to his own town to be registered. So, Joseph set out from the town of Nazareth in Galilee and travelled up to Judaea, to the town of David called Bethlehem, since he was of David’s House and line, in order to be registered together with Mary, his</p><p>betrothed, who was with child. While they were there the time came for her to have her child, and she gave birth to a son, her first born. She wrapped him in swaddling clothes and laid him in a manger because</p><p>there was no room for them at the inn. </p><p>In the countryside close by there were shepherds who lived in the fields and took it in turns to watch their flocks during the night. The angel of the Lord appeared to them and the glory of the Lord shone round them.</p><p>They were terrified, but the angel said, ‘Do not be afraid. Listen, I bring you news of great joy, a joy to be shared by the whole people. Today in the town of David a saviour has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord. And here is a sign for you: you will find a baby wrapped in swaddling clothes and lying in a manger.’ And suddenly with the angel there was a great throng of the heavenly host, praising God and singing: ‘Glory to God in the highest heaven, and peace to men who enjoy his favour.’</p><p><br></p><p>The Gospel of the Lord.</p><p>R/ Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.</p>
