Third Sunday in Ordinary Time
January 22nd, 2006
The Holy Spirit gathers us together of this Third Sunday in Ordinary Times to give praise and thanks to our God, who continually calls us to discipleship. Let us imitate the disciples and readily follow the Lord who calls us each by name.
The people of Nineveh listened to the words of the prophet Jonah. Their repentance stands as a sign of the generosity of God's mercy and believe in his Gospel. It is in the context of announcing the reigh of God that Jesus calls his disciples to follow him. As the word of God is proclaimed today, let us pray that we will turn away from sin and truly learn to follow the way of the Lord.
We welcome to our Christian Community, Kara Chelsea Griffin, child of Kent and Cyndi Griffin, who was recently baptized. May God's blesssing be with your family.
