The miraculous catch of fish was a historical event in the life of Jesus, but also a symbol of the deep conversion experiences which God grants us from time to time and which set us on a new course in our lives. These experiences usually occur at times when we feel we are stagnating – as spouses, parents, friends, church leaders, ministers, or managers in the workplace.

This passage narrates an extremely important event: the reconstituting of the people of Israel after their return from exile. It was a new beginning for Israel.

Mission Sunday - Oct 18
During the American Revolution, a man in civilian clothes rode past a group of soldiers who were busy pulling out a horse carriage stuck in deep mud. Their officer was shouting instructions to them while making no attempt to help. The stranger who witnessed the scene asked the officer why he wasn't helping. With great dignity, the officer replied, "Sir, I am a Corporal!" The stranger dismounted from his horse and proceeded to help the exhausted soldiers himself.

The reflection below is on the second part of the reading – verses 16 to 21 –a story of how Jesus read the Bible and how he wants us his followers to read it (and teach it).

Introduction to the Celebration
Introduction to the Celebration
When we think of Jesus preaching we think of people flocking
to hear him, just as today we gather to re-affirm our identity as his people
gathered now at his table. But in today’s gospel we hear of people being sent
out from Jesus to prepare his way before him. We gather now, but we are also
the people he has charged to prepare his way in the world today. To be a
disciple is not only to follow, but to go ahead of the Lord announcing his
presence. Let us reflect on these twin aspects of being Christians: following
the Lord, and presenting the Lord to the world. We are called not only to be
‘disciples’ but ‘apostles’.
