Gospel for Wednesday of the 7th Week in Ordinary Time II

Mark 9:38-40

Summary: Jesus teaches that those performing acts in His name, even if not among His closest followers, should not be hindered, as their deeds align with His mission.

Gospel Acclamation: I am the way and the truth and the life, says the Lord; no one comes to the Father except through me. (John 14:6)

Unity in Christ’s Work

John said to Jesus, “Teacher, we saw someone driving out demons in your name, and we tried to prevent him because he does not follow us.”

Jesus replied, “Do not prevent him. There is no one who performs a mighty deed in my name who can at the same time speak ill of me. For whoever is not against us is for us.”
