The liturgy allows for the use of the readings from year A when catechumens are preparing for baptism. This is the case for CPH in 2024. As diverse as our communities are over six Sunday Masses, we are united in our solidarity with all who wish to be disciples of the Lord and furthermore request the sacraments. All of us are constantly challenged to renew our commitment to Christ and listen to the Word afresh. In the gospel today the disciples are puzzled: "Surely no one has brought him something to eat?" (Jn 4: 33) Sometimes we are also mystified by God and do not understand what He is doing. We all need to return to the primordial teaching (Gk: kerygma) of the Apostles so that our sight is clarifies and our hearts renewed. Then we can become authentic witnesses to the power of God in our lives. Then it can be said: "Many Samaritans from that city believed in Jesus because of the woman's testimony." (Jn 4: 39)
