St Peters Orthodox Church

April 11, 2021 - Every year on the Fourth Sunday of Lent, we are given a Mass reminding us that we are a people that have much to rejoice about in Christ. In this Mass, we hear the Gospel of St. John 6; the narrative of Jesus taking bread, giving thanks, and feeding the 5000. Today we are reminded that what we really see is the Liturgy unfold before us in this very story. Today is a reminder that Jesus Christ is the Bread of Life! And every time we gather with Him, our Lord takes bread, gives thanks, blesses it; and through that bread He gives us His strength to follow Him in this wilderness, His Divine mercy, and bestows upon us the life of His Resurrection.
