Weekly Reflection

The Good Shepherd

04-26-2026 | Fr. Jess Ty

Dear Family of God,

Who is our good shepherd? How do we become like Him?

Whether we like it or not, we are called to be a shepherd for those persons under our care and even for our neighbors. We are all under the care of God, our merciful Father who loves us sinners so immensely that He gave us His Only Son as our Redeemer and Shepherd.
