الأحد الرابع من زمن العنصرة
21 حزيران سنة 2009
Gospel: Luke 10: 21 – 24 Readings: 1 Corinthians 2: 11 – 16
Jesus invited us in today’s Gospel to be his disciples and to be like him pure at heart, unlike the Pharisees. He rejoiced in the Spirit and gave thanks to his Father. The wisdom that came from the Holy Spirit, was designed by God since the beginning, and was realized in time through his Son Jesus for the salvation of those faithful to him. He gave the Spirit to his disciples.
He allowed us to share in his wisdom and his knowledge. In today’s Gospel Jesus explains the unique relationship between him and the Father. He also talked about the reciprocal relationship between them. Jesus asks us to resemble little children in their innocence.

Father’s Day History
The idea for creating a day for children to honour their fathers began in Spokane, Washington. A woman by the name of Sonora Dodd thought of the idea for Father’s Day while listening to a Mother’s Day Sermon in 1909.
Having being raised by her father, William Jackson Smart, after her mother died, Sonora wanted her father to know how special he was to her.
It was her father that made all the parental sacrifices and was, in the eyes of his daughter, a courageous, selfless, and loving man.
Sonora’s father was born in June, so she chose to hold the first Father’s Day celebration in Spokane, Washington on the 19th of June, 1910. In 1926, a National Father’s Day Committee was formed in New York City.
Father’s Day was recognized by a Joint Resolution of Congress in 1956. In 1972, President Nixon established a permanent national observance of Father’s Day to be held on the third Sunday of June.
Father’s Day Prayer
God our FatherIn your wisdom and love you made all things. Bless all Fathers, that they may be strengthened as Christian Fathers.
Let the example of their faith and love shine forth. Grant that we, their sons and daughters, may honour them always with a spirit of profound respect.
Grant this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
