Today we celebrate the 4th Sunday of Easter – the Shepherd Sunday.
Jesus in today’s Gospel reveals us that He is the Leader of all disciples – all Christians. He is the Sheep Gate who offers us the big protection and sanctity of our lives. Today is the day when we pray for all people in the Church who imitate Christ in the service of leading. We pray first of all for all clergy: the bishops, priests and deacons and for lay people who are leading the parishes in every level of the Parish Committee. The prayer is the big help for that persons, therefore we do this especially on this Sunday.
The Eucharist is the big prayer and the big offering where the mediator between us and God is the high advocate, Our Lord Jesus Christ, the Good Shepherd. We have the good connection with God but we have to make use of this prayer in that intention.
