Sunday – Ordinary Time – Week 15 – Year B

Do we remember ever having an impulse to evangelize?  Maybe we were raised Catholic, and all the people we ever knew growing up were believers.  When we got to school, maybe around the first grade, we realized that some of our classmates didn’t believe in God.  Wasn’t it a shock?  How could that be… didn’t they know?  Probably we immediately had an impulse to tell them, and maybe we tried or at least we thought about saying something.  What has happened to that initial impulse now that we are grown up?  Today our readings are very much connected to the impulse of evangelization… to being missionaries in today’s world.
