We live in a society where many people are hungry for love **and **hurting for the lack of relationship with God. This is true of people of all ages. In a particular way, though, it’s true of our young people. Especially the ones we do not see here in Mass. Many young people suffer from a lack of hope. They do not know the Good News of Jesus Christ. As I mentioned last week, having consulted, and heard from many of you about this as I have gotten to know you, I believe God is leading us to have a particular emphasis on developing a mission to youth in our community and within our parish. The dream for this Mission is to provide an inviting home for youth to be disciples of Jesus Christ through the Church.

People are hungry for Jesus. As a 20th century evangelist said, “Evangelism is just one beggar telling another beggar where to find food.” As good watchmen, we are called to point the way to the food, the only food which will truly satisfy every human heart.
