Being present is a ministry



Jesus talks about signs and wonders in today's gospel.

When we read the text it is a lot to absorb, but one note to make and then connect is that those that believe will do wonders in His name.

The community of believers in the early church met in more intimate environments such as the homes of members and the conversation would have lasted much longer than our one hour mass on Sunday.

Driving out demons is one of the signs that Mark talks about.  We can help each other by the ministry of presence.

Be present for each other and know that this act of Love will drive out some of the darkest demons we have today such as depression, fear, anxiety and hopelessness.

Stay in the present moment and you will spread the gospel with joy.

Jesus is with you
