THEME
OF OUR LITURGY
-
|
The
Lord Jesus, our Good Shepherd,
calls us each by name,
beckoning us into a deeper
relationship with
him.
|
First Reading: Acts 2:14a,
36-41
All peoples called by God will receive the
gift of the Spirit if they repent and are
baptized.
Second
Reading: 1 Peter
2:20b-25
Once we were like straying sheep; but now
we have been returned to the shepherd, our
guardian.
Gospel: John
10:1-10
The
shepherd leads the sheep out into pastures
of abundant life.
|
|
Jesus
says, “I came that
they may have life, and
have it to the
full.” Good
stewards are grateful
for the gift of life and
joyfully share their
abundance with
others.

Today, Good Shepherd Sunday, is a special
celebration of World Day of Prayer for
Vocations. The world-wide Church honors
all Christian vocations. We are called by
name and offered a special gift of a
Christian vocation. We pray that we are
open to God’s call and ready to
accept the gift. Jesus, the Good
Shepherd, is with us to guide and protect
us on our life journey.
