On the anticipated Sunday mass, the enthronement of the first class relic of St. Eugene De Mazenod the founder of the Missionary Oblates of Immaculate was held. With this, Fr. Jonathan stressed that a relic is not a lucky charm, or a magical item that will make us immortal. Instead it is a reminder of a child of God who exemplified love for Him. The relic of St. Eugene was not meant to be adored, because adoration is reserved and belongs to God alone.

Eugene was a saint who experienced a somewhat chaotic world. He witnessed the French revolution and he came from a broken family. But one good friday, he looked upon Jesus nailed on the cross, and then he realized how much love God has for him. St. Eugene experienced at first hand a wealthy life, but he didnโt embrace it. He went out, he went on a journey not to boast how wealthy he is. But to spread the word of God.
The readings for the 18th Sunday in ordinary time emphasized how generous our God is. In the first reading, God invites us to approach Him. Especially those who are thirsty for peace, hope and mercy. Because our time must not be allotted to nurture a seed that will not give us a fruitful harvest. Fr. Jonathan emphasized that the world cannot satisfy our thirst or hunger. Because God is the only one that will nourish us.

St. Eugene saw the face of God to those who are frail and submerged in poverty. He immersed himself and proclaimed the gospel. Fr. Jonathan reminds us that the enthronement of the relic of St. Eugene de Mazenod must ignite our love for God that will lead us to serve Him through the poor and the abandoned.

The miracle of the bread and fish happened because someone willingly offered five pieces of bread and two pieces of fish. It is a reminder that a miracle is an act of love and sacrifice.
