The 7th Word of God Sunday is celebrated this Sunday 25th January on the theme

‘The Word of Christ dwells among you’ (Col 3:16)

In his Apostolic Letter of 30 September 2019, Aperuit illis Pope Francis established that the Third Sunday in Ordinary Time is to be the Sunday of the Word of God.  It is a day to be devoted to the celebration, study, and spreading of the Word of God, ‘so as to appreciate the inexhaustible riches contained in that constant dialogue between the Lord and his people.’ Pope Francis impresses on us that the relationship between the Risen Lord, a community of believers, and sacred Scripture is essential to who we are as Christians.

The Bible or the Scriptures make up a central part of Christian worship because they uniquely  reveal God to us through God’s own inspiration.  The word Bible comes from the Greek βιβλίον (biblion), a word that means book. The word Scripture is from the Latin word meaning “to write.”  The Scriptures are the written tradition of God’s self revelation, through all time, to his people.
