Memorial of Saint Vincent de Paul, Priest
The Gospel today is about identifying who Jesus is. Jesus' question to the Apostles, "Who do you say that I am?" is a good question for us to ask ourselves. We want to show others through our actions and words that we believe Jesus is the Christ and that He is with us. A great way to show this (certainly not the only way) is to follow the example of St. Vincent de Paul, a priest who worked tirelessly for the poor in the 1600's. We are called to love our neighbors and when we love we show the love of Christ in our lives. Let us show this love to all those we meet.
