The readings for the Eighth Sunday in Ordinary Time for Year B tell us the Church is the bride of Christ.
- First Reading: Hosea 2:16-17,21-22 – “I will betroth you to me with fidelity”
- Responsorial Psalm: Psalm 103:1-2, 3-4, 8-10, 12-13 – “The Lord is compassionate and gracious”
- Second Reading: 2 Corinthians 3:1-6 – “God has qualified us as ministers of a new covenant”
- Gospel: Mark 2:18-22 – “As long as they have the bridegroom with them they cannot fast”
This weekend we could focus on God’s love and faithfulness, and our faithfulness to God. Here are some ideas:
Jesus answered them, “Can the wedding guests fast while the bridegroom is with them? As long as they have the bridegroom with them they cannot fast. But the days will come when the bridegroom is taken away from them, and then they will fast on that day."
