St. Scholastica,
Pray for us.
Mark 7:24-30

The woman in this gospel is a Gentile and she is very persistent in asking Jesus for help. How open am I to help those who are of a different background than I? Am I willing to overextend myself to meet the needs of others who are asking for help? Lord, please give me the strength and courage to respond to the needs of others as you did.
