The readings proclaimed were Amos 6:1, 4-7; 1 Timothy 6:11-16; Luke 16:19-31.
"Our Gospel reminds us that whatever we've been given - wealth, talents, other resources - not for our self-indulgence, but for the welfare of the Lazaruses of the world. When we do that, when we think first of others rather than ourselves, we will find eternal rest in the bosom of Abraham."
