Twenty-second Sunday in Ordinary Time (Year B) 2024

Who do you say I am? Jesus asks. This Sunday's readings invite us to reflect on the theme of right commitments. Life is full of choices. A believer must have a firm base and stand by the choices he or she has made. If you recognize Jesus as the Son of God, will you bear his cross with him?

God's favor. The readings of this Sunday are on the theme of God's grace.  God wants us to open our eyes and ears to receive his healing grace.  His only request is for us to be faithful.

The Lord's words this Sunday challenge us to look deeply into our hearts, where the spirit of the law resides deeply. Are we ready to do this and make our act of worship consistent with our life?

As we reach the end of John 6 which we have been reading for the past 4 Sundays, we are challenged to make a decision: shall we 'remain with Jesus' even if his teaching is hard to understand and to live out? May the Spirit help us accept the challenge of faithful discipleship. Reading for this week: https://bible.usccb.org/bible/readings/082524.cfm

Receiving Divine Nourishment to gain wisdom Receiving divine nourishment is all about receiving Jesus. He wants to remain in us and us in him. This will provide us with the wisdom to practice our faith together as a community so that we can all receive eternal salvation. Won't you join us please to taste the goodness of the Lord?

Nourishment for life 3rd Sunday of a 5 Sunday series on the bread of life. 1st week was how just 5 Barley loaves and 2 fish filled the crowd. 2nd week was the wrong breads will not satisfy your hunger. 3rd week Jesus reminds us his nourishment will give us eternal life. Therefore, anything we do we must do it with the love of Christ in mind.

Looking for the Wrong Bread of Life. 2nd Sunday of a 5 Sunday series on the bread of life. Last week, we began to understand the nourishment of the 5 barley loaves and 2 fish. This second Sunday, in the bread of life sequence, discloses the alarming possibility of looking for the wrong type of nourishment, and seeking sustenance for life from the wrong sources. Sound familiar?

Nourishing one another. For the next five Sundays, the readings will follow a sequence of readings based on the "bread of life" from Chapter 6 of the Gospel of John. The unifying theme is that of Jesus, sustaining believers through the provision of special nourishment. This Sunday, let's start with five barley loaves and two fish.

Come home to God Sunday's readings focus on gathering of that which has been scattered. This original God intended harmony was lost plunging the world and the human community into disunity. God will not allow his design to be disfigured. He is calling you to gather to restore harmony with each other and him.  How will you respond?

Our lady the best disciple This Sunday, our church of OLMC celebrates the feast of OLMC. The readings are all in honor of our lady who teaches us to open to God and his will without fear; always have faith, hope and love; and to pray to find God in all that happens around us.
