Meditation: "Who do you say that Jesus is?"
Who is Jesus for you - and what difference does he make in your life? Many in Israel recognized Jesus as a mighty man of God, even comparing him with the greatest of the prophets. Peter, always quick to respond whenever Jesus spoke, professed that Jesus was truly the "Christ of God" - "the Son of the living God" (Matthew 16:16). No mortal being could have revealed this to Peter, but only God. Through the "eyes of faith" Peter discovered who Jesus truly was. Peter recognized that Jesus was much more than a great teacher, prophet, and miracle worker. Peter was the first apostle to publicly declare that Jesus was the Anointed One, consecrated by the Father and sent into the world to redeem a fallen human race enslaved to sin and cut off from eternal life with God (Luke 9:20, Acts 2:14-36). The word for "Christ" in Greek is a translation of the Hebrew word for "Messiah" - both words literally mean the Anointed One.

Wellness Matters From Our Parish Health Nurse, Lisa Bohrer It is important to eat healthful, nutritious food even when you are on the road. Here is some advice for traveling:
Opt for a veggie burger or grilled chicken sandwich topped with lettuce and tomato, or a grilled chicken salad topped with a low fat dressing.
At a Mexican restaurant, choose soft tacos or a burrito stuffed with grilled chicken, fish or vegetables.
Another option is a cup of chili with a turkey sandwich or side salad.
Choose a veggie or turkey sandwich along with a low-fat veggie soup.
