Friday of the 8th Week in Ordinary Time
In the Gospel:
"May no one eat of your fruit again!"
Insight:
The episode of the fig tree which bears no fruit is a reminder to us to become fruitful Christians in our communities and workplaces.
"Is it not written:
My house shall be called a house of prayer for all peoples?
But you have made it a den of thieves."
Insight:
This is a reminder for us that a place of worship is a sacred place.
We come to honor God, to be in His presence. So, let's show our respect with the clothes we wear, our words, and actions. Let us not be distracted by wordly things, but focus on His Holy Presence.
Celebrant: Rev. Fr. Norbert Maria Can̈ada, MMHC
