THE SUNDAY SOLEMNITY OF SAINTS PETER AND PAUL..............
Having presided and preached at the 9:30am Mass at Sacred Heart this morning, the focus of my Homily on this Solemnity of Sts. Peter and Paul, was to underscore their effectiveness as Apostles after they embraced Jesus The Christ fearlessly and faithfully. Despite Peter's denials of knowing and following Jesus before the Paschal Mystery was fulfilled, Jesus proclaims him to be the Rock and primatial Leader of the Church accepting Peter's confession of Faith in Jesus as the Christ of Salvation. Paul's assiduous scholarly and learned fidelity to Judaism made him a persecutor of the first Christians, until his extraordinary conversion made him one of the most extensive missionaries to the Gentiles in all of Christian History. We too, in the Third Millennium of Catholic-Christianity are baptized and believing Disciples of the Lord Jesus, are called and commissioned to be Fearless, Faith-filled, Evangelists and Missionaries of Jesus The Christ. Embracing the spirit of Sts. Peter and Paul, who will you be a bearer of the Good News to today and in the days ahead ? How will you choose to share the Mission of Redemption with them ? It is a responsibility you and me and every Christian has been chosen to bring to fulfillment..............Father Troy David
