Monday 1st. Week of Lent

 

The Chair of St. Peter



The Chair of St. Peter

There are many different kinds of chairs.
There are desk chairs and dining room chairs and lounge chairs and poolside chairs.

Where a person sits says a lot about them and what they do.

Today we celebrate the chair of St. Peter. That chair symbolizes the who St. Peter was and what he did.

Peter is the man of Faith who professes that Jesus is the Christ.
Peter is the Rock on which the church is built.
Peter is the keeper of the keys to the kingdom of heaven.
Peter is the shepherd who feeds the sheep.
Peter was the first to enter the Empty Tomb and believe

There is no other like Him in the Scriptures.

And The Pope continues this unique role of Peter in the Church.

For while there are many different chairs there is only one Chair of St. Peter


God Bless
