From Prayer to Mission

This homily reminds us that faith begins by receiving Christ and then sharing Him with others. Through Saint Luke, we see how the Church continues the work of Jesus, especially in the story of Philip the Evangelist. Like Mary, we are first called to welcome Christ in prayer. Then we are sent out to bring Him to others in simple, everyday ways. Even when our prayer feels weak, as Blessed Giles of Assisi said, God still receives it.
