Are you passionate about your faith? In wanting to know more, learn more and eager to share what you have learnt? Do You seek the Lord often praying to know His Will for you?
These are signs that you are growing in discipleship. While all of us have different gifts and charisms we are One Body united in our Lord Jesus Christ. Knowing this and applying our gifts and charisms towards building the kingdom of God by our sacrifices we further our journey towards sanctity and Holiness.
St Simon and St Jude pray for us…. Amen
First reading
Ephesians 2:19-22
You are no longer aliens or foreign visitors: you are citizens like all the saints, and part of God’s household. You are part of a building that has the apostles and prophets for its foundations, and Christ Jesus himself for its main cornerstone. As every structure is aligned on him, all grow into one holy temple in the Lord; and you too, in him, are being built into a house where God lives, in the Spirit.
Gospel
Luke 6:12-16
Jesus went out into the hills to pray; and he spent the whole night in prayer to God. When day came he summoned his disciples and picked out twelve of them; he called them ‘apostles’: Simon whom he called Peter, and his brother Andrew; James, John, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James son of Alphaeus, Simon called the Zealot, Judas son of James, and Judas Iscariot who became a traitor.
