11th Sunday after Pentecost

After feasting on bread and fish, Jesus retreats and the crowd follows. As their stomachs begin to grumble again, they ask Jesus for a sign. Is he the one they have been waiting for. . .he may have fed them once but will he be able to support them for a lifetime? Jesus responds I am the bread of life. Just as God provides manna in the wilderness, Jesus promises to give us what we need for each day and more. 

Accompanying Scripture:
Exodus 16:2-4, 9-15, Psalm 78:23-29, John 6:24-35
