You might recall that last Sunday, as we listen to the Gospel from Matthew, we were with Jesus and the disciples in Caesara Philippi.
And one of the things that happens there is that Jesus asks them who the people say that I am, and they give various responses. And then Peter stands up and says to them in response, In all of their place, he says to them, says to Jesus, you are the Christ, the Son of a living God. And Jesus responds that this is the rock upon which the church will be built, that this proclamation made by Peter a proclamation of faith.

Locke E. Wallace Jr., a long-time, well-loved member of St. Charles Borromeo Parish, died last Thursday, August 24, 2023, at the age of 93. He and his wife, Patricia, regularly attended 11:15 AM Mass for many years. They also provided many concerts in our church, with Locke singing classics from the American songbook with Patricia accompanying him on the piano. Here’s a sample. He will be greatly missed. A memorial service will be scheduled in the near future.
Eternal rest grant onto him, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him.
