Theme: “The Family of God: Forgiving As We’ve Been Forgiven”
Homily by Abp. Ricardo Alcaraz
“Refusing to forgive others is to walk away from your own forgiveness.”
Genesis 50:15-21 – God expects us to be merciful to others as He is merciful to us.
Romans 14:9-12
Psalm 103:1-3;8-13
Matthew 18: 21-35
“Forgiveness is God’s grace.”
1.(v.21-27) The Lord has granted us abundant grace and mercy.
2.(v.28-35) Refusing to forgive others cancels our own forgiveness.
“Forgive from the Heart! For His grace and mercy to work for us.”
