9th Sunday After Pentecost 2021
This week we celebrate the feasts of Saints James the Greater, Martha, Ignatius of Loyola and the mother of the Blessed Virgin Mary, St. Anne.  This Sunday is providentially placed in the summer to help us combat temptation and sin.  The Epistle warns us how easily we can fall from grace as can be seen by what happened to the Chosen People in the desert.  History provides many more examples such as King Henry VIII.  God permits evil as a punishment for sin and to teach us to turn to Him when in need.  Even those far from grace can do this and in a moment of desperation say “God, help me”.  Pray fervently that you may go to heaven and you will.
