6th SUNDAY OF EASTER – Mother’s Day

/ From the Pastor, Parish Life / By

mothersdayToday we celebrate the 6th Sunday of Easter and Mother’s Day. We are again reminded today that the heart of Christianity is love: love of God, love of one another. Jesus tells us that we have to love one another as he has loved us.

Today is also Mother’s day. We thank God for the gift of motherhood, both biological motherhood and spiritual motherhood. We ask God for his special blessing on our earthly mothers living or dead.

One important fact that cannot be dismissed is that mothers are generally very protective of their children. The Church is described as “Holy Mother Church”. God entrusted to the Church the responsibility to guide His sons and daughters aright with the word of God and to follow the path established by God for the salvation of souls.

Let us ask our Lord in this Eucharist that we may grow in this openness of genuine love.

Reflections

  1. As we meditate on the image of the vine, or on the word “abide”, how is this reflecting your own community? Do you belong to any believing community? Who are the members? What does this community mean to you?
  2. Love is not a word but an action. What are some of the problems in your community? Misunderstanding? How does a loving action bring the community together?
  3. Reflect on an experience of being loved by someone, recall the happiness, how is this experience a manifestation of Jesus’ love?
