May 1, 2016 - Sunday

May God be gracious to us and bless us;
may his face shine upon us.
So shall your way be known upon the earth,
your victory among all the nations.
May the peoples praise you, God;
may all the peoples praise you! (Psalm 67:2-4 NABRE)

As we near the end of the Easter season during this Jubilee Year of Mercy, it is fitting to reflect on God's graciousness to us and on the many blessings we have been given.

Let us work to "be merciful, just like [our] Father is merciful." (Luke 6:36)


Today, on this Sixth Sunday of Easter, I will seek more ways to be God's shining face to others.


Saint Joseph the Worker, who trained Jesus in both the satisfactions and the drudgery of your vocation as a carpenter, pray for us.
