TWENTY-SEVENTH SUNDAY (YEAR B)
In marriage, God answers the human need for friendship, companionship and warmth, says the Archbishop, Most Rev. Valerian Okeke. He notes that man is not an island but by nature social and relational. Hence, he encourages us to share and appreciate our inter-dependency as community of God's children. It is expressed in family bond, which can only be sustained through intimate communion with God who is the source of love. He prays that God renews His love in our lives. Shalom!
