1 OLOL SCHOOL NEWSLETTER Oakland Avenue, Baulkham Hills South Telephone: Facsimile: Term 2 Week 9 29th June, 2018 Saints Peter and Paul Today, we celebrate the Feast of Saints Peter and Paul, the Apostles. We commemorate the martyrdoms of Peter the chief of the apostles and Paul the apostle to the Gentiles. They are remembered for their faith, their courage, and their leadership during the difficult days of the birth of the Church. The Gospel reading for the Mass of the day is Matthew 16:13-19 You are Peter, and I will give to you the keys of the kingdom of heaven. When Jesus came to the region of Caesarea Philippi he put this question to his disciples, Who do people say the Son of Man is? And they said, Some say he is John the Baptist, some Elijah, and others Jeremiah or one of the prophets. But you, he said, who do you say I am? Then Simon Peter spoke up, You are the Christ, he said, the Son of the living God. Jesus replied, Simon son of Jonah, you are a happy man! Because it was not flesh and blood that revealed this to you but my Father in heaven. So, I now say to you: You are Peter and on this rock I will build my Church. And the gates of the underworld can never hold out against it. I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven: whatever you bind on earth shall be considered bound in heaven; whatever you loose on earth shall be considered loosed in heaven.
