Tuesday of the Third Week of Easter
Reading and Reflection
Jesus is the bread of life. Many of us are so used to
receiving the Eucharist that we are not fully participating in the
reception at times. Today's reading may spur us to pay
attention and appreciate the gift of Jesus' life. A fast of
bread and water may help us savor the bread and taste it.
Yeast breads always smell so fresh and while still warm are a delicious
treat. Let us make an effort today to more fully be aware of
the bread of life by being aware of the breads we eat. Let
us become more grateful for the gift.
Today let us pray for St. James Parish and the
Pastoral Staff.
