@BishopBarron The Pharisees did criticise Jesus for spending time with sinners. As an admirer of your work I am becoming concerned about what I see as increasing support for Trumpism.
Tomorrow. Feast of Our Lady of Lourdes which reminds us of God’s Love for the sick and for all humanity. However, Our Lady’s call at Lourdes for turning away from sin and for prayer should not be forgotten.
Called to be Salt to the earth and light to the world (Mt. 5:13-16)
Today’s Gospel encourages us to be an influence in society eg working for justice, protecting life at all stages, helping the poor, comforting others, support for those at the edges of society…….
Tomorrow, The Presentation of Jesus at the Temple also known as The Purification of Mary and Candlemas because of the use of candles in the liturgy of the feast.
Tuesday. St John Bosco, (d1888) his approach to working with young people still inspires modern approaches to the care, development and education of young people. We pray for our young and for all who work with them.
