Morning Prayer with the Oblate Family: Saturday August 24th 2024

With Fr Michael Brady OMI

Good morning, we revisit moving prayer from a few years back. We join Fr Michael Brady OMI in Dublin, on the banks of the river Liffey, for our morning prayer on Saturday August 24th of Week 20 of Ordinary Time.

In today’s readings, we hear about how Nathanael was called by Phillip who said to him “Come and see” Jesus of Nazareth – he invited Nathanael (also known as Saint Bartholomew) to encounter the Lord himself – he went to share the gift of knowing Christ with his friend, Nathanael. Philip found Nathanael and said to him, ‘We have found the one Moses wrote about in the Law, the one about whom the prophets wrote: he is Jesus son of Joseph, from Nazareth.’ ‘From Nazareth?’ said Nathanael ‘Can anything good come from that place?’ ‘Come and see’ replied Philip. – John 1:45-51

Thank you for joining us this morning.
