Dear Friend in the Lord,
Israel –“Chosen Race”: In today’s Gospel, Jesus urged His disciples to focus on proclaiming the Good News to the Israelites before the Gentiles. Reflect on our need to pray for the grace of gratitude to value the Gospel of Eternal Salvation more fully. Do we praise, love and serve God, through knowing Jesus personally?

Matthew 10:1, 5-7
Jesus summoned his twelve disciples and gave them authority over unclean spirits with power to drive them out and to cure all kinds of disease and all kinds of illness.
These twelve Jesus sent out, instructing them as follows: ‘Do not make your way to gentile territory, and do not enter any Samaritan town; go instead to the lost sheep of the House of Israel. And as you go, proclaim that the kingdom of Heaven is close at hand.’
