Readings: Isaiah 58:6-10; Psalm 112; 1 Corinthians 2:1-5; Matthew 5:13-16 Grace and peace to you from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. Today is the Fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time, Year A. In today’s Gospel, Jesus uses two powerful images to describe the identity and mission of Christians in the world. He tells us that we are the salt of the earth and the light of the world.

Fertility declines steadily with age, and while modern medicine has expanded possibilities, it…
