Updated weekly (Sunday 26/07/2026):
We often hear of Solomon and in the first reading we hear how when he was given the choice of anything, he did not choose long life or riches. Rather he chose ‘a heart to understand how to discern between good and evil’. In the Gospel, Jesus shows us that gaining the kingdom of heaven is the gaining of real treasure.
