Jesus gave Simon a name based on the word for "rock." Peter had just acknowledged Jesus to be the Son of God and the Messiah (Christ). Jesus used that as an op-portunity to teach us about the importance of faith as the foundation of the church. There were many variations on what people thought the messiah would be. Some expected a political leader who would unite the Jews and maybe even overthrow their Roman masters. Others thought he would be a wonder-worker, a super-hero, who would use his power to make Israel a great and free nation. Some thought the messiah would provide food and riches in abundance. In faith we learn that Jesus has fulfilled all messianic hopes. He unites not just the Jews, but all people who believe in him. He sets us free from sin and death. He feeds our spiritual hun-ger with his own Body and Blood in the Eucharist. By commending Peter's faith, he shows us that faith is the foundation (rock) of the church. For the church is a family of people who believe all that Jesus taught because we believe in the person of Jesus. That is, we don't just believe that Jesus was real. We affirm that he is alive and important to our lives. We have experienced him in his words, in the sacra-ments, and in each other. May our faith always be solid as a rock.

Prayer to Overcome Racism
Mary, friend and mother to all, through your Son, God has found a way to unite himself to every human being, called to be one people, sisters and brothers to each other. We ask for your help in calling on your Son, seeking forgiveness for the times when we have failed to love and respect one another. We ask for your help in obtaining from your Son the grace we need to overcome the evil of racism and to build a just society. We ask for your help in following your Son, so that prejudice and animosity will no longer infect our minds or hearts but will be replaced with a love that respects the dignity of each person. Mother of the Church, the Spirit of your Son Jesus warms our hearts: pray for us.

Prayer of the Faithful As people of God’s holy word, let us pray for all who are in need.
For openness in the Church to God’s generous and life-giving word, let us pray to the Lord. For an end to hunger throughout the world through a generous sharing of the planting and harvesting from every nation, let us pray to the Lord. For those who suffer in the heat, for those who endure storms, fires, and floods, and for all who respond to their needs with generous hearts, let us pray to the Lord. For migrant workers and for immigrants as they strive for a better life for themselves and for their families, let us pray to the Lord. For the health and safety of all in our communities as we continue to reopen in the wake of the pandemic, let us pray to the Lord. For all those who are sick, for all who suffer from COVID-19, and for all who have died, especially N., N., and N., let us pray to the Lord. For all the prayers that we hold in the silence of our hearts; for all our intentions spoken and unspoken, let us pray to the Lord.
