FRIDAY WEEK 11 ORDINARY TIME 20 JUNE 2025 A reading from the holy Gospel according to Luke (9:12-17) Late in the afternoon the twelve apostles came to Jesus and said, "Send the crowd to the villages and farms around here. They need to find a place to stay and something to eat." Jesus answered, "You give them something to eat." But they replied, "We have only five small loaves of bread and two fish.” There were about five thousand men in the crowd. Jesus said to his disciples, "Have the people sit in groups of fifty." They did this, and all the people sat down. Jesus took the five loaves and the two fish. He looked up toward heaven and blessed the food. Then he broke the bread and fish and handed them to his disciples to give to the people. Everyone ate all they wanted. What was left over filled twelve baskets. The Gospel of the Lord. Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ. This reading from Luke’s gospel reminds us that nothing is impossible for God! This is another amazing miracle story from the life of Jesus. Listen to this song about Jesus feeding 5000 people from just five small loaves of bread and two fish. God blesses us with many good things every day. Be sure to thank God for these gifts. Let us pray for hearts filled with gratitude. (pause) God our Father, every good thing comes from you. Fill our hearts with love for you and help us to use wisely the gifts you have given us. Through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. May the God choose us and send enlighten us with his Holy Spirit. Amen. May God bless us in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. 103
