October 29, 2017, Thirtieth Sunday in Ordinary Time Homily by Father Joseph Pearce, C.O. Father spoke of the command Jesus gave us: "You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your mind, and all your soul" and the second commandment: "You must love one another as I have loved you." Father asked if we listen to this and practice the love of God any better than the people Jesus was speaking to back in His time? He said that so often we do not. He asked, "how can we abuse our neighbor, who is made in the image of God." |
