Faith is Made to Be Shared In today’s reading the Church honors Saints Peter and Paul. When a child is born in Africa, they are often given two names. The first name depicts the situation into which the child was born. It is a message for future generations. The second name is often associated with the saints. Hear more within the Homily. Saint Peters and Saint Paul are the most common saint names given to boys in Africa. On the day we celebrate the vigil of Saint Peter and Paul, we hear how their virtues are the models for young boys. Christians, in general, admire these two great saints. We admire their faith, their commitment, and their total giving of themselves into the service of the Lord. We all are aware that St. Peter was a fisherman when he received his calling from the Lord to follow Him. He responded by leaving everything behind, to follow the Lord. When we read scripture, we learn that St. Peter was present during the Transfiguration. He affirmed to the Lord and to the other disciples that the Lord is the Christ. Hear more about these two saints. Hear why and how these two saints complement each other in what they did. Our Prayers Are Powerful In the first reading we hear that St. Peter is in prison, and the faithful are praying for him. Through the prayers of the faithful, St. Peter is ultimately released from prison. There is a lesson in scripture for us today. Prayer through the community . . . when we meet together . . . is powerful. The question may be asked, isn’t prayer powerful when I pray alone? Of course, the answer is yes. But Our Lord tells us when two or three (or more) come together to pray … there will I be. Faith is made to be shared. Listen to this Meditation Media.
