FAITH BOOK

4^th SUNDAY OF EASTER (B) APRIL 22, 2018

Acts 4: 8-12; Psalm 118; 1 John 3: 1-2; John 10: 11-18

By Jude Siciliano, OP

Mini-reflections on the Sunday scripture readings designed for persons on the run. "Faith Book" is also brief enough to be posted in the Sunday parish bulletins people take home.

From today’s Gospel reading:

"I have other sheep who do not belong to this fold.

These also I must lead and they will hear my voice,

And there will be one flock, one shepherd."

Reflection:

Our baptism anoints us to be shepherds in faith. So, along with the "official shepherds" in our church we, the baptized, also need prayer to fulfill our vocation as shepherds. For our voices are to speak on behalf of the Good Shepherd, for those who need guidance, protection, instruction and challenge?

So, we ask ourselves:

Who have been placed in my care?
What kind of shepherd have I been for them?
