The three readings for next Sunday, the 32nd in Ordinary Time for YearC, can be seen to be united by one theme: people of faith are united with the creative life of the eternal God. No matter what changes and challenges we face together as a faith community, God’s covenant faithfulness can be relied on to create a future. “Work, for I am with you” is God’s message to ancient Israel through the prophet Haggai, and it remains true for us a a church facing the 21st century.
