In today’s passage from Matthew’s Gospel, the people’s astonishment is not wonder and awe but unbelief and rejection. Jesus is home preaching to those who know him or know of him and yet he is not accepted. Recognizing their lack of faith, Jesus does not perform miracles.

St. John Vianney, we ask your intercession for those who serve as catechists, those newly committed to the ministry and those who feel the stirring of the Spirit within but have not said yes to the call.
