On the 20th Sunday in Ordinary Time, Fr. Joselito reflects on the Canaanite woman whose persistent faith moved the heart of Jesus. Drawing from Isaiah, Romans, and Matthew, the message emphasizes that God welcomes all peoples and listens to every sincere cry for help. The homily calls the faithful to perseverance in prayer, humility, mercy, and a deeper commitment to justice and peace. It also reminds the community that the Eucharist strengthens us to live as one family in Christ and to become givers of hope in the world.
