Sunday of the Word of God

Our Holy Father, Pope Francis, has instituted the Sunday of the Word of God to be celebrated annually on the Third Sunday in Ordinary Time. For the Sunday Masses of Jan. 25-26, we ask you to bring your personal or family Bible to Mass with you. We want to emphasize the importance of the Bible in Catholic life and encourage one another to read and study it as a regular part of our lives as disciples of Jesus. During the Mass, we will have a commitment and blessing prayer as you hold your Bibles. For more information about enthroning and honoring the Bible in your homes, go to www.bridge-b.com.
