Let us all remember that we are in the Holy Presence of God.
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
Mt 18:21-22
“For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall
become one flesh? So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore, what God has joined
together, no human being must separate.”
Reflection
The Gospel for today talks about the sacrament of Matrimony. It is a sacrament that unites two
different individuals who promised to love each other wholeheartedly. We are also reminded by this
gospel to hold on to our promises just like Jesus who fulfilled His promise to us, that He will be with
us always. For our reflection, please recall an instance when God fulfilled His promise to you.
Lasallian Guiding Principle
LGP states that, ‘we are committed to continuous renewal and transformation in collaboration with
others to accomplish their common mission.’ As Lasallians, we are called to be united as we pursue
to achieve our goals so that all of us will be able to see the change that we want to see in our
community. Mission is always a collective endeavor.
