Homily for Wednesday of the 14th Week in Ordinary Time

In our Gospel reading today, Jesus sends the Apostles to continue His work. He gives them a clear directive, and as faithful followers, they carry out His commands, with most of them ultimately sacrificing their lives in the process. 

Through our baptism, each of us is personally charged with the same directive. This is not a call to be judgmental, nagging, or disagreeable, but rather a call to express our faith through our words and actions. Sometimes, this involves sharing our faith stories, while at other times, it means quietly living out our faith, even in the most ordinary moments, fulfilling our responsibility in evangelization. 

So today, let us pray for the wisdom and courage to respond to the call to be evangelists of the Good News of Jesus Christ.
