Fr. John's Reflection

Living out the Gospel message ... My child, conduct your affairs with humility, and you will be loved more than a giver of gifts. Humble yourself the more, ... and you will find favor with God. - Sirach 3:17-18 For every one who exalts himself will be humbled, but the one who humbles himself will be exalted." - Luke 14:11 Humility is the recognition of the gifts given to you at Baptism but using them at the service of others ... - author unknown August 29th is the Memorial of the Passion of St. John the Baptist. He was an instrument in announcing the Lord, True Humility and Love, to the World! Let us do the same. Use the gifts given to you at Baptism to serve others.
