I love the image of Jesus the Good Shepherd. It is an image that speaks to us in the context of our faith, no matter our age. I think of Jesus the Good Shepherd who is always looking for the lost sheep. As you are reading this bulletin reflection, I am out on the pilgrimage route of St James in northern Spain. I always love seeing the shepherds and their sheep dogs guiding their flocks of sheep in the rural areas of Spain. We pray that Jesus the Good Shepherd continue to lead us and guide us on our journey. We continue to pray for the repose of the soul of Pope Francis, for the many ways he led us as shepherd and for the love and mercy he showed the world. We also wish all of our mothers, grandmothers, and great grandmothers a blessed Mother’s Day this weekend. Blessings to all of you - Father Lincoln.
This is a blog of homilies, reflections, and photos from a Roman Catholic priest serving in the Diocese of Jackson in the state of Mississippi. Currently, I am the pastor of Holy Savior in Clinton and Immaculate Conception in Raymond. I have served as Vicar General of the Diocese since July 2019. I also serve as Catholic chaplain in the federal prison in Yazoo City and the state prison in Pearl.
