Boomers and Zoomers each have something important to offer our world. We should take advantage of it.

This week’s first reading and Gospel speak to the issues of marriage and children.

This week, we listen to the Gospel story from the book of Mark in which Mark tells the disciples that “whoever is not against us is for us.”

This week, we hear Jesus tell the disciples, “whoever receives one child such as this in my name, receives me.”

In this week’s Gospel, Jesus asks the disciples who they think he is and then proceeds to predict his passion for the first time.

All too often, we fail to recognize those in the less-than-visible jobs. But try to imagine your life if there were no people to fill those roles.
