Then he rented the vineyard to some farmers and moved to another place. 34 When the harvest time approached, he sent his servants to the tenants to ...read more

Thirty-Second Sunday In Ordinary Time, Year A: Ten Virgins- Bring Your Own Oil

Contributed by Paul Andrew on Oct 13, 2023

BYOB stands for Bring Your Own Beverage. Today’s parable is about preparing for our individual and irrevocable particular judgment at death and it is always a Bring Your Own Oil affair—BYOO.

Today we live in an age when we have cameras every where. We never know who is watching us.

A man is driving to work when he notices the flash of a traffic camera.
