Gospel: Matthew 18:15-20
If your brother has sinned against you, go and point out the fault to him, when the two of you are alone;
and if he listens to you, you have won back your brother. If he doesn’t listen to you, take with you one or two others,
so that the case may be decided by the evidence of two or three witnesses. And if he refuses to listen to them,
tell it to the assembled Church. But if he does not listen to the Church, then regard him as a pagan, or a tax collector.

Truly, I say to you, unless the grain of wheat falls to the earth and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies,
it produces much fruit. Those who love their life destroy it, and those who despise their life in this world save it even to everlasting life.
Whoever wants to serve me, let him follow me; and wherever I am, there shall my servant be also. If anyone serves me, the Father will honor him.

At nightfall, he was there alone. Meanwhile, the boat was very far from land, dangerously rocked by the waves,

When they came to the crowd, a man approached Jesus, knelt before him and said, “Sir, have pity on my son,

How long must I be with you? How long must I put up with you? Bring him here to me.”

Then Jesus said to his disciples, “If you want to follow me, deny yourself. Take up your cross and follow me.
For whoever chooses to save his life will lose it, but the one who loses his life, for my sake, will find it.

For John had said to Herod, “It is not right for you to have her as your wife.” Herod wanted to kill him but he did not dare,
