                       I am the vine, you are the branches.

Sunday’s reading from the Gospel of John is part of Jesus’ discourse at the Last Supper. Recall that
John tells the story of Jesus’ Last Supper differently from the other Evangelists. In John’s Gospel, the
Last Supper begins with Jesus washing his disciples’ feet. Jesus then provides them with a series
of instructions. We call this section the Last Supper discourse or Jesus’ farewell discourse. In these
chapters of John’s Gospel, Jesus instructs his disciples about the importance of following his
example of love and service, about the gift they will receive when Jesus sends them the Holy Spirit,
and about their relationship with Jesus and with the world. The Last Supper discourse concludes
with Jesus’ prayer for his disciples.

Today’s Gospel reading is taken from middle of the Last Supper discourse. Jesus speaks about his
relationship to his disciples. In his metaphor of the vine and the branches, Jesus is referencing the
Hebrew Scriptures. In the Hebrew Scriptures, Israel is the vineyard, and Yahweh himself tends the
vineyard. One of the primary themes of John’s Gospel is to show Jesus to be the fulfillment of God’s
promises to Israel.

In this passage, Jesus teaches his disciples that his relationship with them will not end after his
death; he will remain with them always. This unity between Jesus and his disciples is the basis for
their ability to continue to do the work that he began. Similarly, Jesus’ presence with us through the
Gift of the Holy Spirit enables us to continue the work of love and reconciliation that he began.

Jesus also teaches his disciples about the importance of the words he has taught to them. Just as
Jesus will remain in the disciples, so too will his words. We come to know Jesus through the
Scriptures, the living Word of God. Our commitment to be Christ’s disciples is sustained through
God’s Word. This commitment is also strengthened by our life of prayer and nourished by the
Eucharist. Through the Eucharist, Jesus dwells in us, remains with us, and transforms us so that we
might bear fruit in his name.

We observe many people who act in ways that show their commitment to serve their neighbor.
Christians and non-Christians feed the hungry, care for the sick, shelter the homeless, and give
alms to the poor. These actions become acts of Christian discipleship when they are motivated by
our relationship with Jesus. Whatever the immediate results, Jesus promises us that these actions
will bear fruit when we undertake them in his name.

                                                    In 2015, a planning study was conducted to identify the local
                                                    Archdiocese’s present-day challenges and address the needs of our

                                                    Faith Formation.
                              As a result of the data and responses collected, Cardinal DiNardo
                              initiated a major capital campaign fittingly titled, IGNITE: Our Faith,
                              Our Mission to raise $150,000,000. The campaign kicked off in the
Spring of 2017 and conducted the first block prior to Hurricane Harvey hitting Southeast Texas. The
campaign was placed on hold so the Archdiocese could focus on emergency response and relief
efforts. Although recovery will take years, it is time to relaunch IGNITE and address the new realities
of the Archdiocese.

 PICKING PRUNES
 Jesus: “I am the vine, you are the branches.”

 Branches that do not bear fruit are pruned
 off and burned. Those that do bear fruit are
 carefully pruned to bear more fruit!

 Pick your prune.

New Ministry Opportunity: Do you have one hour to spend with the Lord?

As many of you are aware, COVID-19 has been a devastating experience for so many. Yet
out of the ashes, comes blessings. We have been fortunate to be able to provide a quality
livestream Mass as well as many other spiritual opportunities at St. Michael the Archangel.
Countless parishioners and others who have viewed regularly our livestream have had
nothing but praise for the efforts of all who willingly assist in this outreach.

It is our desire to expand our livestream outreach by recruiting volunteers who will offer
their time and talent so that we may continue offering it at the Saturday Vigil Mass at
5:00 pm and the Sunday Mass at 9:00 am. As such, we are beginning a new ministry at our
