Preaching for the Twenty-seventh Sunday in Ordinary Time, Sarah Attwood Otto offers a reflection on welcoming others: "Today’s readings make clear that our joy, as well as our salvation, is to be found in welcoming and being in relationship with each other...There is no path to God that we can take independently of our spouse, our children, or our neighbor – the Word made flesh in those around us." Sarah Attwood Otto is a retreat director and spiritual director at Ignatius House Jesuit Retreat Center in Atlanta, GA. Prior to retreat ministry, Sarah worked in college campus ministry at Providence College and directed the Newman Catholic Center in Chico, CA. She earned her Master of Divinity from Boston College School of Theology and Ministry.
