Friends, welcome to PTTSOTW On this feast of two giants of our faith, Saints Peter and Paul. This is one of
those calendar feasts that replace what would be the Sunday of the Year, in this case, the Thirteenth Sunday of Ordinary Time.

When we consider St. Peter and St. Paul, we are often drawn into a reflection of their lives before they became committed apostles. We remember the lovable rogue and fisherman

Simon, who tried to walk on water towards the Lord and then sank when he questioned his faith, or his denial of the Lord three times. Or we remember Saul of Tarsus whostood at the stoning of the first martyr, St. Stephen, and thought this was a good idea,and then followed this by rounding up Christians and bringing them to trial before the Jewish authorities.

Friends, when we consider where they both started and where they ended up, we are indeed full of hope that we believe in a God who can turn any negative situation into positive. If they can make it to heaven, there is hope for everyone of us.

But first we imitate their faith, their trust and like them put Christ at the centre of lives.
