SUNDAY’S GOSPEL—February 4, 2018 – 5th Sunday in Ordinary Time

183

Mark 1:29–39

Jesus brings God’s life-giving, healing power to the people of Galilee. The Gospel portrays Jesus as a man of action who raises up Peter’s mother-in-law, heals the sick, and frees the possessed. He also seeks time to pray. We are all called to imitate Jesus’ compassion and love for people.

See The Gospel at Home (English, Spanish) for suggested family activities and discussion starters related to this Sunday’s Gospel.
