Homily for the 26th Sunday in Ordinary Time, Year A, 2026 - Fr. Satish Joseph
The plea from the disciples today, “Lord, teach us to pray,” is a plea that continues through desert mothers and fathers, the medieval mystics, through today. As we near the feast of the spiritual master, St. Teresa of Avila, doctor of the Church, on Oct 15, let’s contemplate how her words and wisdom illuminate Jesus' teaching on prayer.
Holy Spirit of God, Breath of my breath, Life of my life, Soul of my soul; I praise you, I adore you, I worship you.

Come, possess me and make me holy.
