A new vision
Mt 12:46-50
While Jesus was still speaking to the crowds, his mother and his brothers were standing outside, wanting to speak to him. Someone told him, “Look, your mother and your brothers are standing outside, wanting to speak to you.” But to the one who had told him this, Jesus replied, “Who is my mother, and who are my brothers?” And pointing to his disciples, he said, “Here are my mother and my brothers! For whoever does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother.”

Boy, these last two preachings by Dominican laywomen have been terrific! You need to sign them up again! What a shame they can’t preach homilies like this at our liturgies, we are the poorer for not hearing the Word from people like them.
