Fathers, it is so important that you love your daughters as men who fear and love God. Your daughters need to see the face of God in your face. When that love is absent, the wounds they carry can run deep. You are your daughter’s first witness to Christ’s love.

Gospel of the Day (Luke 13,10-17)
Jesus was teaching in a synagogue on the sabbath.
And a woman was there who for eighteen years had been crippled by a spirit; she was bent over, completely incapable of standing erect.
When Jesus saw her, he called to her and said, "Woman, you are set free of your infirmity."
He laid his hands on her, and she at once stood up straight and glorified God.
But the leader of the synagogue, indignant that Jesus had cured on the sabbath, said to the crowd in reply, "There are six days when work should be done. Come on those days to be cured, not on the sabbath day."
The Lord said to him in reply, "Hypocrites! Does not each one of you on the sabbath untie his ox or his ass from the manger and lead it out for watering?
This daughter of Abraham, whom Satan has bound for eighteen years now, ought she not to have been set free on the sabbath day from this bondage?"
When he said this, all his adversaries were humiliated; and the whole crowd rejoiced at all the splendid deeds done by him.

Jesus of justice and life, you stand with the suffering, the marginalized and the oppressed. Pour us out for your beloved “little ones,” for our neighbours who struggle the most. Make us your people, people of justice and love for all. Amen. @CCCB_CECC
