Last Weekend – The 6th Sunday in Ordinary Time
Last week’s readings reminded us that being a Christian is more than following the rules, including simply attending Mass. Jesus is setting us free to make choices that support, sustain, grow and nurture life for ourselves and one another. We choose life when we care for those who are poor, respect the dignity of every human being and protect God’s creation. We choose life when we are generous with our time, compassion, money and resources. Would anyone look at us and listening to us know that God is at the centre of our lives?
