Parish News: The 21st Sunday and Week of the Year

‘You are the Christ,’ said Peter, ‘the Son of the living God.’ It is in response to this confession of who Jesus is that, despite all his imperfections, Peter is chosen to be the first among the apostles. Knowing who Jesus is the key which unlocks everything; even the gates of heaven themselves.
