29th Week of Ordinary Time – Friday – Optional Memorial of Saint Anthony Mary Claret, Bishop
In today’s Gospel, we see Jesus walking along the shores of the Sea of Galilee. He notices Simon and his brother Andrew casting their nets into the sea, for they were fishermen. Jesus says to them, “Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men.” Amazingly, they immediately leave behind their nets, their careers, their dreams, and follow him.
