Acts 15:7-21; John 15:9-11

Homily

          Jesus' last recommendation to his Apostles, during the last meal He shared with them, is a call to brotherly love. In the same way, the accounts in the Acts of the Apostles that we read during this Easter Season show us how this fraternal love is lived out in concrete terms, within a community, through relationships that are not necessarily always easy. This love is even lived out at times through the resolution of conflicts.
