Jan. 24: Third Sunday in Ordinary Time

Some important liturgical events surround this Sunday. In 2019, Pope Francis designated the third Sunday of Ordinary Time as “Word of God Sunday,” a time for the whole church to reflect on the power of God’s Word that comes to us in the Scriptures. The images and narratives and profound teachings of the Bible — particularly its proclamation about Jesus — are the source and ongoing nourishment of our Christian faith.
