Fifteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time
July 15th, 2007
St. Xavier Parish Home Page
Brothers and sisters, we have heeded the call of the Lord and have assembled in this place to give God praise and honor. Here we are inspired by God's living word and nourished at the table of the Eucharist. With wonder and awe in God's presence, we begin this Mass with hearts filled with expectant joy.
The Scriptures challenge us to examine the law of love is not something that is beyond our reach. As believers, this law is planted within us. Let us find in today's scriptures the inspiration and strength we need to be Christ for one another.
