Join us this weekend as we celebrate the 22nd Sunday in Ordinary Time
In the Gospel this weekend, Jesus tells his disciples, "whoever wishes to come after me must deny himself,
take up his cross, and follow me.  For whoever whishes to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life
for my sake will find it."  In a society that promotes personal satisfaction and pleasure, and that encourages us to
"look out for number one," Jesus' message of self-sacrifice is truly countercultural. 
But, in laying down what we might think is best for us, we actually empty out space for the Holy Spirit
to fill us with a life that God knows is best for us.
