SUNDAY CATHOLIC MASS 1/25/26 | The Call of the Disciples and Catholic Schools Week

Описание: Happy Sunday, and a warm welcome to our church family! Join The CatholicTV Network for this joyful Sunday Mass celebration as we begin Catholic Schools Week.

In today's stirring Homily, Father Adrian Millik, joined by eighth-grade students from St. Brigid's School in Abington, reflects on the urgency of Jesus' first words in the Gospel: "This is the time of fulfillment. The kingdom of God is at hand. Repent and believe in the gospel". He explores the radical response of Simon, Andrew, James, and John, who "abandoned their nets" to follow Christ. As we begin this special week celebrating Catholic education, we are reminded that like the Ninevites who repented at the preaching of Jonah, we too are called to a constant conversion of heart and a life of service to the Lord.

Let us pray that we may always glory in the gift of new life we receive through the grace of the Eucharist.
