This Sunday is often called Good Shepherd Sunday. It’s not a named day on the calendar, but it centers on one of the most familiar images of Jesus.In this week’s Gospel, Jesus speaks about being both the gate and the shepherd. In a world full of competing voices, he points us toward what leads to life… and life abundantly.There is a place for you here. Come as you are.
