Archbishop Murphy offered this homily at the Mass to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of Sacred Heart Church in Battle Ground, WA. He implored all present to hear the Word of God that asks all followers of Christ not to be rugged individuals but rather people who are committed to building and living a spirit of community. The archbishop emphasized the importance of unity with the Archdiocese of Seattle and the universal church. “… the Word of God reminds us that we are asked to live out the unity of Christ, a unity rooted in faith and the presence of Christ among us,” said Archbishop Murphy. “No one of us can afford to be an island.”
