Today’s first reading is the story of Barnabas and where he preached, in Antioch. He was with Paul (Saul). We celebrate his passion for the gospel today.

In the gospel, Jesus is still preaching the sermon on the mount. After telling us the beatitudes of how to live a Christian life, He now tells us to be the light! Go out and tell everyone! Jesus Christ is Lord! He is our salvation! Hallelujah!
