Identity


On Sunday, I went to the 5:15 p.m. Mass at the Church of St. Paul the Apostle on Manhattan's West Side.

The fine liturgy was celebrated by Fr. Ron Franco, C.S.P., with music by the St. Paul's Young Adult Choir.

The Gospel reading, from Luke Chapter 9, was about Jesus' identity and what it means to follow him.

In the passage, Jesus gives a prediction:

"The Son of Man must suffer greatly and be rejected by the elders, the chief priests, and the scribes, and be killed and on the third day be raised."

For homilies on Sunday's Gospel, pay a visit to Deacon Greg and A Concord Pastor.
