February 22, 2024 Feast of the Chair of Saint Peter, Apostle
Today’s readings are about a shepherd. They are referring to Jesus, Peter, and each one of us. Through baptism we receive the Holy Spirit and are meant to proclaim the Gospel to the world. We should also be leaders to the flock, shepherds. In the gospel Jesus tells Peter that he is the one to lead the apostles. He will be the shepherd of the church. He was the first pope. He was chosen because of his deep faith and his excitement of sharing the Gospel. Let us all have the zeal of Peter today! Amen!
