Twenty-eighth Sunday in Ordinary Time • Year C

This month of October begins the Jubilee of Migrants. During the Jubilee year there are weekly and sometimes more frequent Jubilee events for different sectors of society, in order to underscore that our reaction to the migrants living in our midst should not be fear, nor hatred, but mercy, because we are merciful as the Father is merciful. If we live in abundance, that mercy is a response in thanksgiving that recognizes that all we have is gift and should be shared.
