Weekly Bulletin

Second Sunday in Ordinary Time

The Gospel reading for this weekend tells the story of the wedding at Cana at which Jesus performs His first miracle by turning water into wine. This miracle shows Jesus’ power and care for those around Him. His action at Cana also has a deeper meaning for each of us. It symbolizes how He can transform our lives. Just as He changed water into wine, He can change our hearts and make us new. This story encourages us to trust in Jesus’ ability to help and guide us. We can reflect on this miracle by thinking about areas in our lives that need transformation. We should ask Jesus to help us grow and improve our lives. By trusting in His power, we can experience positive changes and become better followers of Christ.
