The Lord is with us! Lift up our hearts in joyous praise for the LORD has come! In this Gospel, Jesus breaks, blesses and multiplies the bread and the fish, and feeds a multitude of 5000 men, women and children who were reclining. The Miracle of the Feeding of 5000 is in all four Gospels, and is a precursor to the order of the Mass, to Eucharist, as Jesus said the blessing, and handed the bread to the disciples who then gave the people more than they could eat! They were filled and were satisfied! Reading the Gospels is a wonderful way to spend time in the Lord’s Presence! Sharing the Gospels with family will always bring fruit! The Gospels are for all people , for all belong to the Lord! A special invitation for all to inquire of the Sacraments, to attend Mass, and to receive Jesus more fully! May the Lord bless us and keep us, May His Face shine upon us and be gracious to us! May He look kindly upon us and grant us His Peace! In Jesus’ Name , amen!
