The feast of the Holy Siblings of Bethany: Ss Martha, Mary & Lazarus. They welcomed Jesus into their home & their lives. Martha, a model of action & hospitality; Mary, a model of contemplation & adoration; Lazarus, a model of friendship with Christ & openness to the transforming power of God\u2019s grace. Mary & Lazarus restored to the General Calendar. These three disciples of the Lord offer us profound meditations on how we may live our Christian discipleship.
