Fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time

Jesus invites the disciples who have been fishing all night to “put out into the deep..” Despite their fatigue, they do as Jesus asks because they have faith in him. They are rewarded with a large catch of fish and are then instructed to become fishers of men (and women). That instruction wasn’t meant just for the twelve, it is meant for each one of us. Where and to whom can you reach out to? Who do you know that needs Christ’s healing and love? The grace and ability to be a disciple is there for us, it just takes courage and a listening heart to “put out into the deep.”

ADORATION OF THE BLESSED SACRAMENT

Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament at Saint Christine’s Church will take place every Thursday. Mass will be celebrated at 10:00 am, followed by Adoration at 10:30 am and ending with Benediction at 6:45 pm. Come and spend some heart-to-heart time with Jesus.
