Our Lady of Guadalupe Church

Dear Parishioners and Friends of Our Lady of Guadalupe, 

    When I read the Gospel for this weekend, I felt that it seems so unfair. Here we have workers who have been working all day and some workers come in later in the day. Others come in at the last hour and yet when the tine comes to be paid all are given the same amount. Yes, for me, this seems totally unfair.

   But the Gospel is not about the pay—it is about God’s Mercy. The workers who came early were  blessed to be in the Lord’s vineyard and in His presence. Those who came in at the last hour, missed out being in His presence and the blessings that go with His graces.                   However, the Lord welcomes all into the Kingdom. He waits for us to come to Him. I always thanks God for His Mercy.  He came for the lost sheep and He rejoices when they return to Him.

   Let us pray for those seeking the Lord and His Mercy. May they find the Lord’s open arms awaiting for their return. 

 God bless you,

     Fr. Tony
