Send us a textAs the church year comes to a close, our Holy mother Church reminds us on this 33rd Sunday of OT C, about the things of the end times -  In 1st and Gospel readings we hear about what will happen before and at the end of time. Nation rising against nation, kingdom against kingdom, tumults, famine, earthquakes, persecution. Some will look at the wars, conflict, grief, violence, chaos, confusion in our world today, they are tempted to conclude that the end of the world is near. Our Blessed Lord has some reassuring words for such catastrophic thinking. He says, "do not be terrified". He wants us instead to use them as opportunities to bear witness to Him -  because He is the Way the truth and the Life.  Friends, Christ is speaking directly to your heart and to my heart, consoling us and encouraging us to stand up for our faith in the current difficult times and in the trying moments of our lives. And if we do this, He assures us again in his own words that "no hair on your head will perish"... By your endurance you will gain your lives.’In this November, the month of souls, let us continue to pray for our brothers and sisters who have gone before us marked with the sign of faith. May God welcome them in His heavenly kingdom.Support the show
