✝️ 𝗔𝗠𝗕𝗢 𝗢𝗥 𝗟𝗘𝗖𝗧𝗘𝗥𝗡? 𝗧𝗛𝗘𝗬 𝗔𝗥𝗘 𝗡𝗢𝗧 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗦𝗔𝗠𝗘

Have you ever wondered why some churches have a special place from which the Bible is proclaimed?

You may have heard it called a “lectern,” while others call it an “ambo.”

Although the two can look similar, there is an important distinction.

✝️ 𝟭. 𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗜𝗦 𝗔𝗡 𝗔𝗠𝗕𝗢?

The 𝗮𝗺𝗯𝗼 is the designated place in the church from which the Word of God is proclaimed.

It is not simply a stand for holding books.

In the Catholic liturgy, the ambo has a special dignity because it is associated particularly with the proclamation of Sacred Scripture.

The readings from Scripture are normally proclaimed from the ambo, including the Responsorial Psalm and the Gospel.

The homily may also be preached from the ambo, although it may be given from another suitable place according to the Church's liturgical norms.

This is why the ambo should be treated with reverence.

It is a place where the Word of God is proclaimed to the assembled Church.

✝️ 𝟮. 𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗜𝗦 𝗔 𝗟𝗘𝗖𝗧𝗘𝗥𝗡?

A 𝗹𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻 is more generally a reading or speaking stand.

It can be used for announcements, introductions, speeches, notices, presentations, or other forms of public speaking.

In some churches, especially where the sanctuary has limited space, the terms “ambo” and “lectern” may be used interchangeably.

But liturgically, the ambo has a more specific purpose and dignity.

The important question is not merely what the furniture is called, but what it is being used for.

✝️ 𝟯. 𝗪𝗛𝗬 𝗜𝗦 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗔𝗠𝗕𝗢 𝗜𝗠𝗣𝗢𝗥𝗧𝗔𝗡𝗧?

Because Catholic worship gives great importance to the proclamation of God's Word.

At Mass, we do not simply read a religious book.

God's Word is proclaimed to His people.

The Church therefore gives the place of proclamation a particular dignity.

The General Instruction of the Roman Missal teaches that the dignity of the Word of God requires a suitable place for its proclamation and that the ambo should be used according to its nature.

The ambo therefore helps us understand something important:

𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗠𝗔𝗦𝗦 𝗜𝗦 𝗡𝗢𝗧 𝗢𝗡𝗟𝗬 𝗔𝗕𝗢𝗨𝗧 𝗛𝗘𝗔𝗥𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗪𝗢𝗥𝗗𝗦.

It is about listening to God.

✝️ 𝟰. 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗔𝗟𝗧𝗔𝗥 𝗔𝗡𝗗 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗔𝗠𝗕𝗢

There is also a beautiful relationship between the altar and the ambo.

The altar is intimately associated with the Liturgy of the Eucharist.

The ambo is associated with the Liturgy of the Word.

At Mass, we are nourished from the two tables:

𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗧𝗔𝗕𝗟𝗘 𝗢𝗙 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗪𝗢𝗥𝗗

and

𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗧𝗔𝗕𝗟𝗘 𝗢𝗙 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗘𝗨𝗖𝗛𝗔𝗥𝗜𝗦𝗧.

We hear Christ proclaimed in the Scriptures and receive Christ in the Eucharist.

This is why the Word and Eucharist belong so profoundly together in the celebration of Mass.

✝️ 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗗𝗘𝗘𝗣𝗘𝗥 𝗧𝗥𝗨𝗧𝗛

The next time you see the ambo, don't simply see a wooden or marble stand.

Remember what happens there.

The Scriptures are proclaimed.

The Gospel is announced.

The Church listens.

And through the proclaimed Word, God speaks to His people.

“Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light for my path.” — Psalm 119:105

So when the reader approaches the ambo, listen attentively.

When the Gospel is proclaimed, stand with reverence.

When the Word of God is heard, allow it to enter not only your ears, but also your mind and heart.

𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗔𝗠𝗕𝗢 𝗜𝗦 𝗡𝗢𝗧 𝗝𝗨𝗦𝗧 𝗔 𝗣𝗜𝗘𝗖𝗘 𝗢𝗙 𝗖𝗛𝗨𝗥𝗖𝗛 𝗙𝗨𝗥𝗡𝗜𝗧𝗨𝗥𝗘.

It serves the proclamation of the Word of God.

And the Word of God deserves our attention, reverence, and obedience.

✝️ 𝗦𝗔𝗬 𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗦 𝗧𝗢𝗗𝗔𝗬

“Lord, open my ears to hear Your Word, my mind to understand it, and my heart to live it. Amen.”

THE 9 CHOIRS OF ANGELS
WHO ARE THEY AND HOW DOES THE CHURCH UNDERSTAND THEM?

When Catholics hear the word “angels,” we often think of guardian angels, Saint Michael or perhaps the angels surrounding the throne of God.

But Catholic tradition speaks of something much broader: nine choirs, or orders, of angels.
Where did this idea come from? Are all nine explicitly listed in the Bible? And what does the Church actually teach about them?

The answer is fascinating.

The Church teaches that angels are real, personal, spiritual creatures created by God, but the familiar nine-choir hierarchy comes from the development of Christian theological tradition based on the different angelic orders mentioned in Scripture.

1. THE FIRST HIERARCHY
CLOSEST TO THE CONTEMPLATION OF GOD

SERAPHIM
The name is associated with the idea of “burning ones.”

In Isaiah’s vision, the seraphim stand before God’s throne, proclaiming:
“Holy, holy, holy is the LORD of hosts.” - Isaiah 6:3

They are traditionally associated with the burning love and worship of God.
SERAPHIM → LOVE & WORSHIP

CHERUBIM
Cherubim appear throughout Scripture in connection with God’s holiness and presence.

They guard the entrance to Eden after the Fall, and their imagery is associated with God’s throne and glory.
Biblical references: Genesis 3:24; Ezekiel 10:1–22.

Traditionally, they are associated especially with divine knowledge and contemplation.
CHERUBIM → KNOWLEDGE & CONTEMPLATION

THRONES
Thrones are named among the heavenly orders in the New Testament:
“Whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers; all things were created through him and for him.” - Colossians 1:16

Christian tradition associates the Thrones with God’s justice, authority and divine judgment.

THRONES → DIVINE JUSTICE & AUTHORITY

2. THE SECOND HIERARCHY
HEAVENLY GOVERNANCE

DOMINIONS
Dominions are traditionally understood as heavenly beings associated with authority and the ordering of God’s creation.

Their name appears among the heavenly orders mentioned by Saint Paul.
Biblical reference: Colossians 1:16.

DOMINIONS → AUTHORITY & GOVERNANCE

VIRTUES
The Virtues are traditionally associated with divine strength and the manifestation of God’s power.

The terminology can vary among biblical translations, so we should be careful not to claim that Scripture presents “Virtues” as a clearly defined choir in the same way it names angels and archangels.

VIRTUES → DIVINE STRENGTH & MIGHTY WORKS

POWERS
Powers are another order named in the New Testament.

Christian tradition associates them particularly with spiritual authority and resistance against evil.
Biblical reference: Colossians 1:16; Ephesians 6:12.

POWERS → SPIRITUAL WARFARE & RESISTANCE

3. THE THIRD HIERARCHY
GOD’S MESSENGERS AND SERVANTS

PRINCIPALITIES
Principalities are named among the heavenly orders in Scripture.

Traditionally, they are associated with the guidance and protection of peoples, communities and earthly institutions under God’s providence.
Biblical reference: Colossians 1:16.

PRINCIPALITIES → GUIDANCE & PROTECTION

ARCHANGELS
The word “archangel” refers to a chief or prominent angel.

Scripture explicitly mentions an archangel:
“The Lord himself, with a word of command, with the voice of an archangel…” - 1 Thessalonians 4:16

Saint Michael is called “the archangel” in Jude 9, while Gabriel and Raphael are also traditionally honoured as archangels in Catholic tradition.

ARCHANGELS → IMPORTANT MESSAGES & MISSIONS

ANGELS
Finally, we have angels in the ordinary sense of the word: God’s messengers and servants who carry out His will and participate in His providential care for humanity.

The Letter to the Hebrews asks:
“Are they not all ministering spirits sent to serve, for the sake of those who are to inherit salvation?” - Hebrews 1:14

This is also where we find the beautiful Catholic teaching about guardian angels.

ANGELS → MESSENGERS & SERVICE

BUT DOES THE BIBLE ACTUALLY LIST “9 CHOIRS”?
Not in one single passage.
This is an important distinction.

Scripture mentions different heavenly beings and orders, including seraphim, cherubim, angels, archangels, thrones, dominions, principalities and powers.

The complete classification into nine choirs arranged in three hierarchies was developed through Christian theological tradition, especially the influential work traditionally attributed to Pseudo-Dionysius the Areopagite.

So the nine-choir system is a traditional theological classification, not a list of nine ranks presented together in Scripture.

WHAT DOES THE CHURCH DEFINITELY TEACH?
The existence of angels is not merely a poetic idea.

The Catechism teaches:
“The existence of the spiritual, non-corporeal beings that Sacred Scripture usually calls ‘angels’ is a truth of faith.” - CCC 328

Angels are intelligent, personal spiritual creatures created by God. They glorify Him, serve His purposes and participate in His providential care.

And despite all the different orders and descriptions, the most important fact remains:
They are creatures.
They are not gods.
They do not compete with God.
They exist because God created them and gave them a place in His plan.

NINE CHOIRS. ONE CREATOR.
Whether we contemplate the seraphim before God’s throne, the archangel announcing God’s message or our own guardian angel accompanying us, the focus should never ultimately be on the angels themselves.

The angels point us toward God.
They remind us that heaven is filled with worship, that God’s creation is greater than what our eyes can see, and that the Lord has surrounded His people with spiritual servants who carry out His will.

NINE CHOIRS.
ONE CREATOR.
ALL FOR THE GLORY OF GOD.

SUNDAY READINGS - QUOTES & ANALYSIS
23rd Sunday in Ordinary Time (Year A) - 6 September 2026

WHEN LOVE REQUIRES YOU TO SPEAK THE TRUTH
Have you ever known that someone was making a wrong decision, but hesitated to say anything because you did not want to offend them? Perhaps you saw someone you love drifting away from God, making destructive choices, or hurting themselves or others. Sometimes we remain silent because we want to avoid conflict. We tell ourselves, “It is none of my business.”

But is silence always the loving response?

This Sunday’s readings challenge us to understand love differently. Ezekiel is appointed as a watchman who must warn God’s people when danger comes. Saint Paul reminds us that love fulfils the law, while Jesus teaches His disciples how to confront wrongdoing: privately, patiently and with the hope of reconciliation.

Together, these readings give us a simple but challenging message:
Sometimes, love requires us to speak.

1. FIRST READING - Ezekiel 33:7–9
“YOU ARE THE WATCHMAN”

God tells Ezekiel, “Son of man, I have appointed you as a watchman for the house of Israel.” A watchman has a responsibility to see danger and give a warning. If he sees the danger but refuses to warn those in its path, he has failed in his duty.

This does not mean Christians are called to interfere in everyone’s life or become judges of other people. There is a difference between judging someone and caring enough to warn them. Judgment says, “I am better than you.” Love says, “I care about you, and I do not want to see you continue down a path that will hurt you.”

But even when we must speak, our attitude matters. Truth without love can become cruelty, while love without truth can become indifference. Christian correction must come from humility, compassion and a genuine desire for the other person’s good.

2. RESPONSORIAL PSALM - Psalm 95 (94)
“O THAT TODAY YOU WOULD LISTEN TO HIS VOICE”

The Psalm gives us a warning that applies not only to the person we think needs correction, but also to us: “O that today you would listen to his voice! Harden not your hearts.”

It is easy to see another person’s faults and much harder to examine our own. Before becoming watchmen for others, we must allow God to speak to our own hearts.

Before you correct someone else, ask:
“What is God trying to correct in me?”

A Christian who wants to speak truth to others must first be willing to hear the truth from God.

3. SECOND READING - Romans 13:8–10
“LOVE IS THE FULFILMENT OF THE LAW”

Saint Paul gives us the foundation for today’s message: “Owe no one anything, except to love one another.” He reminds us that love is the fulfilment of the law.

This explains why Jesus asks us to correct someone who has done wrong. The purpose is not to embarrass them, punish them or prove that we are right. The purpose is love.

Christian love does not mean approving everything. It does not mean pretending that wrong is right. Love seeks the good of the other person, and sometimes seeking that good requires courage.

If we correct someone because we hate them, we have missed the point.
If we correct them because we love them, we may be helping them find their way back.

4. GOSPEL - Matthew 18:15–20
“GO AND TELL HIM HIS FAULT BETWEEN YOU AND HIM ALONE”

Jesus gives us remarkably practical advice:
“If your brother sins against you, go and tell him his fault between you and him alone.”

Notice what Jesus does not say. He does not tell us to announce the person’s fault to everyone, gather supporters, spread the story or publicly humiliate them.

He says:
“Between you and him alone.”

Why?
Because the goal is not to win an argument.
Jesus says, “If he listens to you, you have won back your brother.”
That changes everything.
The person who has hurt us is not simply an enemy to defeat. He is still a brother or sister to be won back.

Jesus also recognises that some situations will not be resolved privately. If the person refuses to listen, others may need to become involved. There is a process of accountability and community.

But Jesus begins with the least destructive approach:
• Speak directly.
• Speak privately.
• Speak with love.
• Seek reconciliation.

“WHERE TWO OR THREE ARE GATHERED IN MY NAME”
Jesus then says, “Where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I among them.”

We often hear these words when speaking about prayer, but their context is important. Jesus says them while teaching about conflict, correction, reconciliation and community.
Christ is not only present when Christians gather happily together. He is also present when they sincerely struggle to repair what has been broken.

Christian community is therefore not a community without disagreements. It is a community that learns how to handle disagreements differently.
Instead of revenge, we seek reconciliation.
Instead of gossip, we speak directly.
Instead of humiliation, we seek restoration.

THE CENTRAL MESSAGE
These readings give us a beautiful balance. Ezekiel reminds us that sometimes we have a responsibility to warn. The Psalm reminds us that we must first listen to God’s voice ourselves. Saint Paul tells us that everything must be rooted in love. And Jesus teaches us how to confront wrongdoing without turning correction into condemnation.

The Christian life requires both courage and humility: courage to speak when silence would allow someone to continue toward harm, and humility to accept correction when we are the ones who have gone astray.

The goal is not to prove that we are right.
The goal is to win back our brother or sister.

BRINGING IT HOME
Perhaps there is someone in your life you need to speak to. Maybe someone has hurt you and you have been carrying resentment. Maybe someone you love is making choices that are taking them away from God. Or perhaps you are the one who needs to hear a difficult truth.

Before speaking, ask yourself:
• Am I doing this because I love this person?
• Or because I want to hurt them back?
• Am I seeking restoration or revenge?
• Can I speak the truth with humility?

And if someone corrects you, can you listen before becoming defensive?
Sometimes silence is not peace.
Sometimes speaking the truth is an act of love.

But Christian truth must never become a weapon. We speak because we care, we correct because we hope for restoration, and we forgive because Christ has called us to love.

A QUESTION FOR THIS SUNDAY
Is there someone I need to speak to honestly but lovingly?
Have I mistaken silence for peace?
When I correct others, am I seeking their good or simply trying to prove that I am right?
And when someone corrects me, am I humble enough to listen?

Perhaps this Sunday we should stop asking:
“How can I prove that I am right?”

And begin asking:
“How can I speak the truth in a way that helps bring this person closer to God?”

SUNDAY PRAYER
Lord Jesus, give us the courage to speak the truth when love requires us to speak, and the wisdom to know when and how to speak. Keep us from pride when we correct others and from anger when we are corrected.

Teach us to seek reconciliation rather than revenge and restoration rather than humiliation. When someone has gone astray, help us to care enough to become faithful watchmen. When we ourselves have gone astray, give us humble hearts that can listen when You call us back.

Remove every hardness from our hearts and help us to listen to Your voice today. May our words bring healing rather than destruction, our correction lead to repentance, and our relationships become places where Your presence can truly be found.

For You have promised that where two or three are gathered in Your name, You are there among them.

Amen.

✝️ 𝗖𝗔𝗧𝗛𝗢𝗟𝗜𝗖 𝗦𝗬𝗠𝗕𝗢𝗟𝗦 𝗔𝗡𝗗 𝗧𝗛𝗘𝗜𝗥 𝗦𝗔𝗖𝗥𝗘𝗗 𝗠𝗘𝗔𝗡𝗜𝗡𝗚𝗦

Catholic churches are filled with symbols. A cross, a candle, water, bread, wine, incense, and even certain colours can communicate profound truths about our faith.

These symbols are not magical objects. They are visible signs that point our minds and hearts toward invisible spiritual realities.

✝️ 𝟭. 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗖𝗥𝗢𝗦𝗦

The Cross is the central symbol of Christianity.

It reminds us of the Passion, Death, and sacrifice of Jesus Christ for our salvation.

“For the word of the cross is folly to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.”
— 1 Corinthians 1:18

When Catholics make the Sign of the Cross, we profess our faith in the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit and recall the saving mystery of Christ's Cross.

✝️ 𝟮. 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗖𝗥𝗨𝗖𝗜𝗙𝗜𝗫

A crucifix is a cross bearing the image of the crucified Christ.

It keeps before our eyes the price of our redemption.

The empty cross can proclaim Christ's victory, while the crucifix powerfully reminds us that our salvation came through Christ's sacrifice on Calvary.

✝️ 𝟯. 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗖𝗛𝗔𝗟𝗜𝗖𝗘 𝗔𝗡𝗗 𝗛𝗢𝗦𝗧

The chalice and Host point directly to the Holy Eucharist.

The Host represents the Eucharistic Bread, and the chalice holds the wine that becomes the Precious Blood of Christ at the consecration.

Catholics believe that Christ becomes truly, really, and substantially present in the Eucharist: Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity.

✝️ 𝟰. 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗖𝗔𝗡𝗗𝗟𝗘

A candle represents Christ, the Light of the World.

Jesus said:

“I am the light of the world.”
— John 8:12

Candles used in the liturgy remind us that Christ conquers the darkness of sin and death.

The Paschal Candle has a particularly profound meaning: it represents the risen Christ and is used especially during the Easter season and in celebrations such as Baptism and funerals.

✝️ 𝟱. 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗜𝗖𝗛𝗧𝗛𝗨𝗦

The fish, or Ichthys, is an ancient Christian symbol.

The Greek word Ichthys means “fish” and was used by early Christians as an abbreviation for:

Jesus Christ, Son of God, Saviour.

It became a discreet way for Christians to identify their faith, especially during periods of persecution.

✝️ 𝟲. 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗟𝗔𝗠𝗕

The lamb represents Jesus Christ, the Lamb of God.

John the Baptist proclaimed:

“Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!”
— John 1:29

The symbol connects Christ with the sacrificial lamb and, above all, with His saving sacrifice.

It also connects beautifully with the Eucharist, where the Church encounters the risen Christ.

✝️ 𝟳. 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗗𝗢𝗩𝗘

The dove is traditionally associated with the Holy Spirit.

At the Baptism of Jesus:

“The Holy Spirit descended upon him in bodily form, as a dove.”
— Luke 3:22

The dove therefore commonly represents the Holy Spirit, divine peace, and God's presence and action.

✝️ 𝟴. 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗖𝗛𝗜-𝗥𝗛𝗢

The Chi-Rho is formed from the first two Greek letters of Christos, meaning Christ.

It is an ancient Christian monogram proclaiming:

Christ is Lord.

It reminds Christians that Jesus Christ is at the centre of the Church and her worship.

✝️ 𝟵. 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗖𝗥𝗢𝗪𝗡

The crown is a symbol of Christ's kingship.

Jesus is King, but His kingdom is not based on worldly power.

His throne is the Cross, and His kingship is revealed through sacrificial love.

The crown can also appear in Marian imagery to express Mary's Queenship, which derives entirely from her relationship with Christ the King.

✝️ 𝟭𝟬. 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗜𝗡𝗖𝗘𝗡𝗦𝗘

Incense represents prayer rising before God.

“Let my prayer be counted as incense before you.”
— Psalm 141:2

When incense rises during Catholic worship, it reminds us that our prayer and worship are directed toward God.

Incense may also express honour and reverence toward sacred persons and things.

✝️ 𝟭𝟭. 𝗪𝗔𝗧𝗘𝗥

Water is a powerful Christian symbol of life, cleansing, and new birth.

In Baptism, water is the matter through which a person is sacramentally reborn in Christ.

Jesus said:

“Unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.”
— John 3:5

This is why holy water also reminds Catholics of their Baptism and their call to live as children of God.

✝️ 𝟭𝟮. 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗟𝗔𝗠𝗣 𝗕𝗘𝗙𝗢𝗥𝗘 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗧𝗔𝗕𝗘𝗥𝗡𝗔𝗖𝗟𝗘

The sanctuary lamp burns near the tabernacle where the Blessed Sacrament is reserved.

Its presence signifies and honours the Eucharistic presence of Christ.

When you see that lamp burning, remember that the tabernacle contains the Eucharistic Lord.

That is why Catholics genuflect when approaching the Blessed Sacrament reserved in the tabernacle.

✝️ 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗗𝗘𝗘𝗣𝗘𝗥 𝗧𝗥𝗨𝗧𝗛

Catholic symbols are like a visual language of faith.

The Cross speaks of sacrifice.

The Crucifix speaks of Christ's Passion.

The Host and Chalice speak of the Eucharist.

The Candle speaks of Christ, the Light.

The Dove speaks of the Holy Spirit.

The Lamb speaks of Christ's sacrifice.

The Incense speaks of prayer.

The Water speaks of Baptism and new life.

The Sanctuary Lamp points us toward Christ truly present in the Eucharist.

The next time you enter a Catholic church, don't just look at the symbols.

Ask yourself:

“What truth about God is this symbol teaching me?”

Because Catholic worship engages not only the ears through Scripture and sacred music, but also the eyes through sacred signs and symbols.
