Growing into What God Dreams Us to Be

"Today’s Scripture readings invite us to reflect on our faith. We need to ask ourselves if our faith is fruitful in our present life and whether it has the capacity to flourish further? The author, Helen Keller, said: 'Faith is the strength by which a shattered world shall emerge into the light.' We need to grow in faith to bear spiritual fruits and to hold onto the promise that we will continue to flourish every day, so that God’s plan of salvation is fulfilled. Just like the disciples asked of Jesus, we humbly pray: 'Lord, increase our faith.'" Read more of the homily from Fr. Wilson Andrade, pastor of St. Ann Parish and the Native Peoples’ Mission, both in Toronto.
