Reflections with Fr. Michael Kelly - Monday 22 Feb, 2021

Today is the Feast of the Chair of Peter and so today’s Gospel is especially important because it specifies just where and how this feast gets its bearings - Peter and his successors as bishops of Rome have no other significance beyond the way in which they testify to Jesus and lead the community of the faithful to deeper union with him and among themselves. The enduring scandal of disunity in the Church is especially apparent on days like today and we need to all work and pray that the disunity comes to an end.

About the Speaker: Father Michael Kelly is a Jesuit priest and English language publisher of the respected Jesuit periodical, La Civilta Cattolica.
