Saint Matthew Parish issued the following announcement on Sept. 30.
“Jesus goes before us, he precedes us; he opens the way and invites us to follow him. He invites us slowly to overcome our preconceptions and our reluctance to think that others, much less ourselves, can change. He challenges us daily with the question: “Do you believe? Do you believe it is possible that a tax collector can become a servant? Do you believe it is possible that a traitor can become a friend? Do you believe is possible that the son of a carpenter can be the Son of God?” His gaze transforms our way of seeing things; his heart transforms our hearts.”—Pope Francis
Reflection:
Have you taken Jesus up on his invitation to believe that it is possible for people to change?
