This festival was established in 1925 by decree of Pope Pius XI. Many Protestant denominations also follow this liturgical practice.

Jesus gives us an opportunity to see a new way for what it means to be faithful to God's kin-dom.

This week Jesus speaks to us about seed and soil. What is our response-ability as workers in God's kingdom? It turns out that most of us hyper focus on that which we have no control over, instead of focusing on that which we do. Seed, soil, sowing all elements in kingdom work only one matters most.
