Sunday, May 2, 2010 at 09:22AM | Administrator If we sum up all the teaching of Jesus, it would be the gospel reading for today which is to love as Christ has loved us. It is our proof of loving God when we love others. It can seem a difficult task to be as sacrificial as Christ is, however, we have the Holy Spirit to help us. With a willingness to put others first, we can love others. The Early Church was founded on Christ’s love and also the love of the disciples for the Church. The Apostles sacrificed much and showed us godly examples of true followers of Christ.
Friday, April 2, 2010 at 04:19PM | Jeff Cavins What a wonderful comfort to know that we can hear Jesus, the Good Shepherd. We have become a part of his flock through baptism into his Church. Through the Church we have many ways of hearing Jesus: through our priests, through the reading of Scripture and the Catechism of the Catholic Church, through the encouragement of our broth- ers and sisters, and during prayer. The closer we draw to Jesus, the better we will be able to respond to His voice and follow Him, follow his teaching, and in turn teach others the way.

Peter denied Jesus three times during His Passion. After the Resurrection, Jesus asks Peter three times of his love for him. This happened during the third appearance of Jesus to Peter. Peter had returned to Galilee to take up fishing again with some of the other Apostles, but after this appearance, it was clear to Peter what he was to do. He was to be in charge of Jesus’ flock on earth. Jesus commissioned him to “Feed my sheep.” Because of Peter’s love for Christ, he was asked to love Christ’s body on earth. As the first Pope of the Church, Peter took the responsibility to care for her and to pass on to us what he learned from Our Lord.
