Pass it On

He took the seven loaves, and after giving thanks he broke them and handed them to his disciples to distribute.
Mk.8:6

Jesus' compassion for the hungry crowd calls forth a miracle performed in the hands of the disciples.

After giving thanks, Jesus hands seven loaves to the disciples. It's the disciples that perform the miracle of multiplication as, in faith, they feed the four thousands. 

Jesus is still moved with compassion, this time for souls hungry for the bread of life. Through our parish Alpha Course we simply take what Jesus offers and, in faith, pass it on to the attending guests. The miracle happens in our "passing it on".

Lord Jesus, let your compassion inspire us to perform miracles in your name.
