Lucy of Syracuse burned like a torch in the darkness of Roman persecution. Today's readings connect her to the prophetic line of Elijah and John the Baptist, both of whom blazed with fire for God and suffered for speaking truth. What would it mean for you to burn brightly in the darkness of our own time?📖 ReadingsSirach 48:1-4, 9-11Psalm 80Matthew 17:9a, 10-13⏱️ Timeline00:00 Introduction00:15 Reading I - Sirach 48:1-4,9-1101:01 Psalm Response - Psalm 8004:17 Gospel - Matthew 17:9a,10-1305:01 Reflection - Light in the Darkness🎧 Prefer to listen on the go?
