Mass Readings – Saturday of the 6th Week of Easter
“Whatever you ask the Father in my name he will give you” reminds us that our requests are rooted in our relationship with the Lord. As we grow closer to Christ we change and grow, not only learning what to ask for, but trusting that the one who knows us best will give us what we need.

Mass Readings – 6th Sunday of Easter
With proper diet and exercise our bodies grow stronger. Over time what seemed difficult becomes easy through discipline and hard work. The same is true for our spiritual lives: we grow stronger as we draw near to Christ and grow in his love…thus allowing us to love in difficult and challenging times as we carry out the Lord’s command to love as he loves us.

Chosen by God does not mean that life will be easy; on the contrary, it will be hard!
