1st Reading:2Kgs 4:42-44;  2nd Reading:Eph 4:1-6; Gospel:Jn  6: I-15

Elisha’s feeding of a hundred men and Jesus’ feeding of thousands out of compassion sustain our duty to perform corporal works of mercy. But without a pervasive sense of justice and love these works will be exploitative. That is why Jesus refused to be crowned a King because of earthly bread and money. Our unity in God challenges us to work for the welfare of all. Resist exploiters.   Archbishop Anthony J.V. Obinna.
