Message from Fr. John Chrysostom Tibakunirwa, Parish Administrator
|
|
Having celebrated Jesus being Baptized in the River Jordan on January 8th, 2024 we concluded Christmastide.
|
We are back to Ordinary Time. We will follow the Readings for seven weeks praying through Lent. Jesus invites two disciples Simon Peter and Andrew in John's Gospel. The words He uses are, Come and see. Besides that way of calling, the First Reading presents to us the gentle calling of God to Samuel, waking him up, is the same voice waking us up to just who God says we are. We are not ordinary in God's way of seeing and God invites us to see God's ways. What we are invited to in Christ is a holy mentality. Paul puts it very clearly in our Second Reading, Do you know that your body is the Temple of the Holy Spirit within you, which you have from God and that you are not your own. Therefore glorify God in your body.
