Today, on the Sixth Sunday of the Word of God, we embrace the theme from Psalm 119:74: “I hope in Your Word.” In moments of uncertainty, let us find solace and strength in the Scriptures, allowing God’s Word to guide and uplift us.

As Pope Francis reminds us, dedicating this day to the Word enables us to experience anew the risen Lord opening the treasury of His Word, empowering us to proclaim its unfathomable riches to the world.  Let’s delve into the Bible, reflect on its teachings, and let it illuminate our path.
