Second Week of Ordinary Time


January 19, 2025

Gospel: Jn 2:1-3 

Let us believe wholeheartedly that He whom we confess to be the Son of Man is also the Son of God.
Let us believe not only that He shared our nature, but also that He was consubstantial with the Father;
for as a man He was present at the wedding, and as God He changed the water into wine.
If such is our faith, the Lord will give us also to drink of the sobering wine of his grace.
