Drumconrath Parish Bulletin
31st July, 2011.
18th Sunday in Ordinary Time
The people followed Jesus to a lonely place, forgetting everything else in order to listen to his words and to seek healing for their sicknesses. We too have left everything, if only for a while, and have come to here to listen to the lord's words and be headed by him.
First Reading:
This contains an invitation, addressed to the exiles in Babylon, to come to a banquet. The banquet stands for the life of love and friendship God wishes to share with his people.
Second Reading:
No matter what bad times we may have to go through, we remain undaunted, because we are certain that Christ loves us.
Gospel:
Jesus shows his compassion for the people by healing their sick, and giving them food to eat.
