The Good Shepherd And How To Get More Series

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Apr 22, 2017

Pray especially for holy priests, brothers and sisters. Pray for those who are preparing for or struggling in marriage. And pray for those who have chosen to remain unmarried in a celibate state, and for those who are trying to run from the divine call.

For many decades this day has rightly been called “Good Shepherd Sunday,” because both of our New Testament readings speak of Jesus as Shepherd of our souls, Shepherd of the One Flock, the Church.

Bethel: Where The Prophet Was Told To Leave Town!
