Sunday Lectionary: Living Bread From Heaven
These notes have been taking up too much of my time again. I’m really going to try and concentrate on keeping them brief…
Nineteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time: August 12th, 2012
Our Readings this week continue building on the themes of the past few weeks. In our First Reading we hear about how God provided bread and water for Elijah in the desert and in our Gospel Jesus continues with His the “Bread of life Discourse”. In our Second Reading Paul continues His moral exhortation to the Ephesians.
O sacrament of mercy, O sign of unity, O bond of love! Whoso wishes to live, let him draw nigh, believe, be incorporated, that he may be quickened. – St. Augustine
