Shepherd Sunday.” In the Gospel of John, Jesus describes Tuesday: Acts 11:19-26b, Jn 10:22-30, Ps 117:1a
himself as the Good Shepherd and his followers as the
sheep of his flock. He also proclaims his loving care even Wednesday: Acts 12:24-15:3a, Jn 12:44-50, Ps 67:4
for those who do not yet belong to his fold. the Church also Thursday: 1 Cor 15:1-8, Jn 14:6-14, Ps 19:5
