Pastor’s Corner 6/16/2013

Written by Msgr. Richard on . Posted in Featured, From Msgr. Richard, Parish News, Pastor's Corner

This Sunday’s Liturgy of the Word puts before us the Good News that those who have sinned much can be forgiven much. In the first reading Nathan informs David that “the Lord, for his part, has forgiven him his sins—even though his sins were that he [David] killed Uriah the Hittite and took his wife for his own. Jesus in the Gospel defends the “sinful city woman” and explains to Simon that she who has sinned much will be all the more grateful for the forgiveness she receives. In fact he tells the woman that her faith has saved her and to “Go in peace.”
