Mass Readings – Saturday of the 25th Week of the Year
The disciples did not understand what Jesus said about his suffering and death, and they were afraid to ask for more information. Yet as they eventually would move from fear to faith we are inspired to face whatever confronts us this day – knowing that the Lord will help us every step of the way.

Mass Readings – Friday of the 25th Week of the Year (St. Pius of Pietrelcina)
The Lord asks his disciples “Who do you say that I am?” After hearing their responses the Lord offers an intense answer: he is the Christ who will suffer, die and be raised on the third day. May the example of Padre Pio inspire us to embrace the intensity of our lives with the grace and guidance of Jesus.
