RELIGIOUS MATTERS- Megan Boyd

SUNDAY GOSPEL REFLECTION 24th  Sunday in Ordinary Time
Gospel Reading: Mark 8: 27-35
Peter declares that Jesus is the Christ, and Jesus teaches that those who would follow him must take up his or her cross.

 Jesus said that we have to accept all of his teachings to be his disciples. He set an example for his disciples to follow. We should remember that he loved us so much that he was willing to suffer for us. Jesus also wants us to offer our lives in service to others even though we may have to move out from our comfort zones and reach out to them. Simply showing kindness, compassion, love and support to others is what is asked of us.

Just a reminder that our Diocese's Bishop Greg offers an online Spiritual Mass each weekend. His words of wisdom as he reflects upon the Scriptures and his Homilies are inspirational. I was not surprised to read that he regularly has 24,000 followers each week. I encourage you to use the link below to view his beautiful Masses.
