Fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time
February 8, 2026
“Let your light shine before others, that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.”
-Matthew 5:16
The generosity of being a faithful servant of your gifts has a positive effect on those around you, and it truly inspires others! Good works encourage more good works. Generosity is a byproduct of a grateful lifestyle; the more we recognize God’s gifts, the more we want to share them. Humble servants recognize that God is working through them, and they don’t put themselves above the people they have been called to help.
