Summertime Sprititual Moment
“The Lesson of a Humbled General”
Fr. Mike Savelesky

According to Luke’s narrative of the Good News, in the early part of His ministry Jesus returned to His hometown and joined the synagogue service.  Responding to their demand for an explanation of what lay behind His ministry around the Sea of Galilee, they invite Him to demonstrate its bearings in Sacred Scripture.  Remember the scene: They hand Him the scroll of the Prophet Isaiah.  He reads a passage and offers a brief commentary.  Some hearers are amazed.  Others want to kill Him.  Why on earth why?!  Jesus reminds them of the lesson learned by Naaman, the leprotic General from Syria.  (They knew the story well.)  It’s the same lesson which would benefit us in our journey of faith and conversion. The program begins with Mass, followed by a light breakfast, and closes with a spiritual talk.
