Cruz,Lysandro U. Mass Reflection What word/phrase from the Gospel reading struck you the most? Why? What is the message of the Gospel Reading? What do you want to tell God as your response to his message "I don't call you slaves anymore, I call you friends" was the phrase of the Gospel that hit me most. The priest tells the disciples of Jesus that he does not see them as being inferior. All are treated and appreciated in the same way. The friend in others must be recognized. He treasures you when a person values your identity. The Church of Jerusalem chose to send representatives to Antioch Church. They were Barsabas and Silas who brought them a letter of gratitude for their faith. After having demonstrated strong community comradeship, the Antiochians appreciated the good deed. The priest shared the experience of the cathedral of Manila, where he received gifts, which were distributed to community offices which helped the needy. I am stunned by someone's continuous service and dedication. For the remission of my sins and for the allowance of me in the world, I'd like to thank Him. I love him and the people he put into my life. Everyone could be my friend, but he's the most important. I'm thankful to my good friends for the ups and downs for me.
