Today, we look at how Christianity in Korea began with seemingly small seeds planted by laypeople who discovered the faith through books and shared what they learned with others. The gospel reminds us that what looks small at the beginning can grow deeply when it finds a heart willing to receive it and live it.

Today, we look at the cross as a reminder that love can give meaning to even the hardest experiences of life. Jesus showed that the cross became the place where God’s love was revealed most completely, turning an instrument of death into a sign of hope and salvation.
