Gospel
text (Mathew 24,42-51): Jesus
said to his disciples, «Stay awake, then, for you do not know on what day your
Lord will come. Just think about this: if the owner of the house knew that the
thief would come by night around a certain hour, he would stay awake to prevent
his house to be broken into. So be alert, for the Son of Man will come at the
hour you least expect. Imagine a capable servant whom his master has put in
charge of his household to give them food at the proper time. Fortunate indeed
is that servant whom his master will find at work when he comes. Truly, I say
to you, his lord will entrust that one with everything he has. Not so with the
bad servant who thinks: ‘My master is delayed’. And he begins ill-treating his
fellow servants while eating and drinking with drunkards. But his master will
come on the day he does not know and at the hour he least expects. He will
dismiss that servant and deal with him as with the hypocrites, where there will
be weeping and gnashing of teeth».
Dear Mr. Harper. As our leader, I am appealing to you two months now, before July 1 st , Canada day, on which we celebrate the nation we are wanting to be, and on which I have committed to the Lord, my walking pilgrimage to the Shrine in Midland, Ontario; that commemorate our true martyrs, people like us, who gave everything for the building of our nation, in the only possible way a nation could ever be build, by giving everything to God.
