Clergy Thought: On this third Sunday of ordinary time, God manifests and gives Himself to us in different ways. One of the most sublime ways God gave and continues to give Himself to us is in His Word. The Word of God is at the centre of our lives and of all we do as Christians. This is the good news that binds us together as the people of God and enables us to work for the kingdom of God. Christ, our Lord himself is the Good News. Thus, the Church invites us to listen to the Good News and meditate on it in our hearts. May the power in the Word of God (Jesus Christ) continue to lead us to a deepened relationship with Him and with those around us. Amen. Fr Alex
