Today we celebrate the 25^th Sunday in Ordinary Time and Spojnia Sunday. Today we have the call to be a family Church, not the large organization, but rather the small Church family with love, which is the bond of good brothers and sisters. We have to open our minds and our hearts for the other people who are coming to our Church and welcome them with love and joy, which are the signs of the real family.

The Eucharist is a real meeting of family Church. We talk to God our Father by praying Him. We hear His response in the Liturgy of the Word. We have a meal of love which is Jesus Christ our Big Brother: this meal – Holy Communion gives us the power to transform ourselves in Him and do the same things to others.
