FOJP’s 16th Missionary Journey

On this week’s “Love and Life”, we will listen to sharings of members of Friends of Jesus’ Passover (FOJP) ‘s 16th Missionary Journey and Fr. Giovanni Yan’s homily in Ottawa. They will explain to us the mission of FOJP and some reflections of their evangelization trip to North America. We will also continue to listen to “Encounter with the Word” which will discuss the stories of Jacob and Joseph in the Old Testament.

Encounter with the Word will talk about Jacob and Joseph in chapters 36 to 38 of Genesis in the Old Testament.

On the 21st Sunday of Ordinary Time (Year A), Fr. Anthony Ho explains to us the story of Jesus' founding of His Church on Peter, establishing him as the first pope in the Gospel of Matthew. Fr. Anthony clarifies to us that the Catholic Church is based on apostolic succession, and has powers and responsibilities to form Christians as bestowed to her by Jesus. Although the Pope is the leader of the Church, he also has some limits on his power.
