January 25, 2023: Feast of the Conversion of St. Paul

A month ago, we celebrated the Light that entered the world when Christ was born.

Today, we commemorate the Light that blazed upon Saul and totally changed the course of his life from persecuting the faith to proclaiming it boldly.

The end of the first reading shows how quickly Saul took up his new role.

During his ministry, St. Paul actively proclaimed the Gospel message to the Gentiles, so that the faith would spread in new ways.

We, the baptized, are also surrounded by the Light of Christ, and share in that call to proclaim the Gospel.
