Mass Readings – The Solemnity of Sts. Peter & Paul

These two great figures in the Church had their share of spectacular successes and failures.  They sinned, yet with God’s grace they kept their eyes fixed on Jesus – and they are wonderful examples for us today.  May we embrace our faith, return to Christ when we have sinned, and seek the Lord above all else!

Saint-Paul

Daily Mass: Philip & James

By Fr. Andrew Ricci

Three Great Things

Fr. Andrew’s Daily Mass Homily Podcast – the Feast of Philip & James

The Feast of Philip & James Readings

Two apostles that do not get as much attention as some of the others, James (the Lesser, the son of Alphaeus) and Philip are nevertheless wonderful examples for us:

  • They made mistakes, yet kept their eyes on Jesus
  • They did much of their work without special attention or praise
  • They offered their lives for the Lord

May they inspire us to live our faith with conviction each and ever day!
