Thought for the week:

Jesus challenges us simply to follow him. It’s not complicated. A Christian simply tries to follow Jesus, every day throughout the day. Teach, preach, heal; love God, love people. When a Christian patterns him or herself after Jesus, great and glorious things happen. When a Christian doesn’t, Satan scores a victory. Max Lucado puts it like this: “When those who are called to fish don’t fish, they fight. But note the other side of this fish tale: When those who are called to fish, fish—they flourish!”

May we flourish as we seek to follow Jesus daily and become fishers of men.

Thought for the week:

The Sunday before Pentecost is called on our church calendar the Sunday of the Holy Fathers. On this day each year we are asked to remember what our fathers did: specifically, the 318 Church Fathers who came together in 325 AD in Nicea| to form the First Ecumenical Council.

The Emperor Constantine had just put an end to the bloody, three hundred-year persecution of the Church, during which 11 million Christians gave their lives for Christ. Christians now began coming out of the catacombs to worship in churches.

These 318 bishops came together to define the teachings of Christ which were being challenged by false teachers. They gave us, among other things, the Nicene Creed, the summary of our faith, which is sang at every Divine Liturgy.

We remember the Apostles, the martyrs, the saints. We remember what they suffered to make the Holy Spirit available to us next Sunday. And, also, we must remember that like they, we must pass on to others this same Holy Spirit by our words and deeds.

So that in the words of the Apostle James: “THE WORLD MAY SEE YOUR GOOD WORKS AND GLORIFY YOUR FATHER WHO IS IN HEAVEN.

Fr. Peter
