Join Jelvine Cortez and Rory Paterson in conversation with John O’Connor chatting about the scriptures for the Twenty-Ninth Sunday in Ordinary Time.
Read the scriptures for this Sunday at this link.
Rory mentions a relevant meme which you can find at this link.
Jelvine quotes Pope Francis speaking (April 13) at his general audience on April 13, 2016: “We are all sinners, we have all sinned…. The church is not a community of perfect people, but of disciples on a journey, who follow the Lord because they know they are sinners and in need of his pardon. Thus, Christian life is a school of humility which opens us to grace.” (Text of complete Audience at this link)
