Friends of the Rosary: Today’s Gospel (St. John 1:35-42) gives an account of the vocation of the first four Apostles who found Christ Jesus, the Lamb of God, and decided to follow him. This event was the beginning of vocations, a movement of holiness that will last until the end of the world. The Church of Christ consists of men with a sinful human nature, yet it is assisted by divine aid. Another momentous fact is Christ's choice of the Apostles among "the lowly and the humble to confound the wise." (1 Corinthians 1:27). The first four Apostles were simple fishermen from Galilee, not men of education or any social standing in their communities. He could have converted and chosen some of the more highly educated scribes of Jerusalem, some of the many philosophers in Greece, or even Roman senators. But he did not.
