On Good Shepherd Sunday, this homily reflects on Jesus as the one who calls his sheep by name and leads them to abundant life. Fr. Paul connects the Gospel to First Holy Communion, urging children and their families to remain in communion with Christ through the Eucharist, the Church, and faithful discipleship. He emphasizes the importance of learning to recognize the voice of Jesus amid competing voices in society. The message is both pastoral and catechetical, encouraging trust in Christ the Good Shepherd and in the guidance of the Church.
