today's Mass scripture:

"When Jesus says 'I am the good shepherd' we are invited to realize the depth of his love. His sole

concern is for our welfare. For our salvation he became an outcast, one who was rejected by a world that didn't even know him. This shepherd-- this smelly farmer who does what no one else would stoop to do

('lays down his life for the sheep') --is the one we are to embrace and emulate.

"WE SHALL BE LIKE HIM"

from St.Mary's bulletin - 4th Sunday of Easter, April 29, 2012

{Acts 4:8-12; Ps 118:1, 8-9, 21-23, 26, 28, 29; John 3:1-2}

i so love that HE is our SHEPHERD!!

we are HIS flock of sheep!!
