Notes:
Barnabas as an apostle
·
Encouragement: “When he arrived and saw the
grace of God, he rejoiced and encouraged them all to remain faithful to the
Lord in firmness of heart…”
Encouragement
is another gift we can give to others
·
For you, our daily Mass brothers and sisters
o
I continue to call you the “soul” of our parish
o
You do some awesome stuff
§ Some people have lived here
for your whole life
§ Awesome families
§ Volunteering
§ Prayers—again, you prayed
for me a ton!
o
You continued as a parish when you didn’t have your pastor
o
When you prayed when you didn’t have daily Mass (only 2 Mondays
in 10 weeks)
·
Keep up your great prayer, relationships, sacraments and Jesus
Christ!
A second part of Barnabas
·
“And a large number of people was
added to the Lord.”
·
Is our church growing? Yes, I believe.
·
Grow in evangelization and encouragement
o
We must learn from brothers and
sisters in other Churches
o
Welcoming people at the door
o
Sitting next to new people
o
Helping to those who need it at
Mass
o
Have relationships of new brothers
and sisters
Keep
up our daily Mass brothers and sisters and invite many more here each day!
