Sunday Reflections
Reflections shared in our Sunday newsletter
In the sacraments, Jesus speaks and acts
The crowds bring a deaf and mute man to Jesus for healing. They ask Jesus to “lay his hand” on the disabled man. Instead, the Lord takes the man away from the crowds, breaths on him, sticks his finger in his ear, puts saliva on his tongue, and speaks: “Ephphatha! Be opened!” Jesus transmits His healing grace to the disabled man through a combination of words and actions. The sacraments of the Catholic Church work in the same way.
Happy Fathers’ Day!
We wish all our fathers a very happy Fathers’ Day. We give thanks to God for their generosity and love for their families. It’s important also to remember that today can be hard for some people due to loss or difficult relationships. We pray for the eternal repose of our deceased fathers and for peace in families.
