ST PATRICK PATRON OF IRELAND 17TH MARCH
DEACON GEORGE’S HOMILY FOR SECOND SUNDAY IN LENT
Jesus often went up a mountain to be alone, to pray and converse with his Father. And today was no different. Now, a week earlier, Jesus had asked Peter, “Who do you say I am? Peter replied, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” So this time, Jesus decides to take with him, Peter, James and John, his closest disciples, and go up the mountain. Whilst on the mountain top, Jesus receives an answer, and a response to his prayer. Jesus is transformed, his appearance changes, and his garments shine with heavenly brightness. His face does not belong to this world but is like that of the world to come. The disciples are having a glimpse of the glorified Christ. This glory denotes the presence of heavenly royalty, and the Kingdom of God is in the midst of his people…..
