Thirteenth Sunday in Ordinary Times
In today’s Gospel, Jesus invites us into a deeper, more courageous discipleship — one that places love of God at the very center of our lives. The Thirteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time reminds us that following Christ is not a half‑hearted endeavor. It is a daily choice to trust, to surrender, and to love with generosity.
Jesus teaches that authentic discipleship transforms our priorities. When we welcome Christ, we become people who welcome others — offering compassion, encouragement, and mercy in His name. Even the smallest act of kindness, He says, will not go unnoticed by the Father. Nothing done in love is ever wasted.
As we continue our journey through Ordinary Time, this Sunday calls us to reflect on the ways we carry Christ into our homes, workplaces, and communities. We are invited to ask: How is God calling me to love more boldly? Where can I offer a simple act of goodness that reflects His presence?
May our hearts be strengthened to follow Jesus with trust and joy. And may our parish community continue to be a place where Christ is welcomed, honored, and shared through every act of love.
Lord, make us generous disciples — faithful in small things, courageous in great things, and always rooted in Your love. Amen.
Prayer for June
Gracious and loving God,
As we enter the month of June, open our hearts to the quiet work of Your Spirit.
Bless the longer days with renewed strength, deeper peace, and a fresh desire to walk in Your light.
May Your wisdom guide our choices, Your mercy steady our steps, and Your love shape all we do.
Keep our parish united in faith, generous in service, and joyful in hope.
In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.
