Sacred Heart Formation House, Cagayan de Oro City, 3rd Sunday in Ordinary Time
In the Gospel today, Jesus reveals the beginning of His mission. He proclaims hope and salvation, fulfilling Isaiah’s prophecy. Jesus brings healing, freedom, and good news to the poor and oppressed.
In the Year of Hope, we are called to continue His mission. Hope is active trust in God and sharing His love with others. We can share hope by: Encouraging and uplifting those in despair. Living the Gospel through service and action. And Trusting in God through prayer and faith.
