                    [Summary] => 

Today’s Gospel reading quotes Jesus:  “I am the living bread that came down from heaven; whoever eats this bread will live forever; and the bread that I will give is my flesh for the life of the world.”  (Jn. 6:51).  In faith, I want to emphasize the ecumenical and interfaith meaning of Christ’s message. The phrases “whoever eats this bread” and “for the life of the world” are most meaningful.
