Sunday 22 June 2025 - Bread from Heaven - Why Jesus Feeds More Than Just Our Bodies

Homily given by Fr Justin on Sunday 22 June 2025.

What’s your favourite bread? Whether it’s chapati, pita, sourdough, or even a sausage sanga from Bunnings 🌭—tonight’s homily invites us to look beyond the physical to the true bread from heaven. We explore: ✨ God’s miraculous provision in the Old and New Testaments 🕊️ The feeding of the 5,000 and what it reveals about Jesus 📜 “One does not live by bread alone…” — what does that really mean? 🍽️ How our hunger points to something deeper 🍷 Why the Eucharist is the ultimate nourishment for our souls From manna in the desert (Exodus 16) to Jesus’ words in John 6, this homily will help you see how God doesn’t just give enough—He gives in abundance. 🙏 “Give us this day our daily bread” isn’t just about food... it's a spiritual invitation. Are you truly hungry for what only God can give?
