SIXTH SUNDAY OF EASTER (JOHN 15: 9-17)A FAMILY PERSPECTIVE BY BUD OZAR – Today’s gospel challenges us to “love one another as I have loved you.” Jesus is our model and He asks us to “lay down our life” (our time, attention, opinions and needs) for each other. This is the sacrament of the family, when God is made visible in our sacrificial love for one another.
