Parish News for 23rd Week in Ordinary Time
This Sunday is the 23rd in Ordinary Time. In the Gospel reading Jesus heals a man who is deaf and dumb. As always in the healing miracles of Jesus there is a deeper meaning. All of us are in need of healing particularly when we become spiritually deaf to God’s loving purposes for us. Click here for the Scripture Readings.
