Today's family story is preceded by two other stories of lost and found. The first story is about 100 sheep where one is lost. The next story is about a woman who has 10 coins and loses one. Then we hear about a father who has two sons. This is a popular story from the Gospel of Luke, and so may be well known to you. Try to clear your mind and listen to it new. Ponder what it means to your life now in your family, in this faith community, and in the world situation.
