Gospel Reading
Fr Jim
Cel: The Lord be with you.
All: And with your spirit.
Cel:
All: A reading from the Holy Gospel according to John (14: 1-6)
Glory to you, O Lord.
Cel: Jesus said to the crowd:
Jesus said,
“Don’t let your hearts be troubled.
Trust in God, and trust in me.
There are many rooms in my Father’s house;
I would not tell you this if it were not true.
I am going there to prepare a place for you.
After I go and prepare a place for you,
I will come back and take you to be with me
so that you may be where I am.
You know the way to the place where I am going.”
Thomas said to Jesus,
“Lord, we don’t know where you are going.
So how can we know the way?”
Jesus answered,
“I am the way, and the truth, and the life.
The only way to the Father is through me.
This is the Gospel of the Lord.
All: Praise to you Lord Jesus Christ.
Homily
