August 26, 2012 – Joshua 24:15-18 – The Tribes Renew the Covenant



Now if you are unwilling to serve the Lord, choose this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your ancestors served in the region beyond the river or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you are living but as for my household, and me we will serve the Lord. The people answered, far be it from us that we should forsake the Lord to serve other gods; for it is the Lord our God who brought us and our ancestors up from the land of Egypt out of the house of slavery and who did those great sins in our sight. He protected us along all the way that we went and among all the people through whom we passed.

Father Pierre Robitaille mentioned in his homily that God wants us to think well and decide that it is a matter of choice in terms of work/job and personal/family life. Let us use our judgment and maturity when it comes to definite choices that we make.

Father Pierre is leaving St. John’s Church for his next assignment in Europe. We extend our warm wishes of good health and luck for his travel.
