30. IV MON of Apostles

Mk. 5: 25-34: The woman who is healed from her hemorrhage is an example of popular religiosity. Though ill instructed many simple pious people manifest strong religious sense by honouring saints and so on. It may be naïve, expecting great results from touching images of saints and other religious objects in this present case, Christ’s garments. But like Jesus, we should respect the religious expressions of these people, while at the same time try to help them discover deeper dimensions of their faith.
