Does God Answer my prayers? October 16, 2016 The 29th Sunday in Ordinary Time

29th Sunday in Ordinary Time

We are never alone! The Responsorial Psalm catches a fundamental truth for us: “Our help is in the name of the Lord, who made heaven and earth.”  All of our readings this week point to the knowledge that persistent prayer means more than just saying the words, but, as Pope Francis said, “If we want to receive Jesus’ self-sacrificing mercy from our prayers, we must also make Jesus’ work of compassionate mercy our own as well.”     - Deacon Jim
