Sunday’s Gospel

In order to help ourselves prepare for a richer experience of the Sunday Liturgy experience, we would like to encourage you to join us in a “sneak peek” at Sunday’s gospel reading.   Please join us each week in reading the Sunday Gospel in advance and contemplating its meaning in our lives.
