Christ Begins to Share His Divinity
Fr Michael Rasicci’s homily for the Last Sunday after the Epiphany, World Mission Sunday, Calvary Episcopal Church, Batavia, IL
In today’s Gospel (Mark 9: 1-9), Jesus allows two of His disciples to see him in conversation with Moses and Elijah. Jesus is transfigured and his clothes are dazzlingly white. When the three leave the mountain, Jesus tells his disciples to tell no one of what they have seen until after he has risen from the dead.
We, too, have a responsibility to share the Good News of Jesus Christ. Part of this sharing is through outreach throughout the world on World Mission Sunday. Our collection will be divided between World Mission Outreach and our two companion dioceses, Southeast Mexico and Renk, South Sudan. (Use the PayPal QR code to donate online)
