Twenty-Eighth Sunday in Ordinary Time

Twenty-Eighth Sunday in Ordinary Time
October 14th, 2007

St. Xavier Parish Home Page

    Sisters and brothers, the Holy Spirit has summoned us to this sacred place to be inspired by the saving power of God. With grateful hearts for all that God has accomplished in us and through us, we lift up our voices in praise and thanksgiving.
    The word of God proclaimed today is a word of healing and comfort. At this Mass we bring all our needs to our loving and compassionate God. May the words we hear today inspire us to cry out to God for mercy, healing, and reconciliation. Let us be grateful for the opportunity to be fed so generously at the table of God's word.
