Jesus sat down,
called the twelve, and said to them,
"Whoever wants to be first
must be last of all and servant of all."

Then he took a little child and put it
among them; and taking it in his arms,
he said to them,
"Whoever welcomes one such child
in my name welcomes me,
and whoever welcomes me
welcomes not me
but the one who sent me."

(September 21st, 2003; Twenty-fifth Sunday of Ordinary Time. Mark 9: 30 - 37)
