The Gospel reading for the next 5 Sundays will not come from St. Mark, which is what we focus on in the B Cycle of Sunday Gospel readings, but from St. John, particularly the 6th chapter. The Church is taking a step back from the flow of St. Mark’s Gospel to meditate on the Eucharist, as Jesus’ Bread of Life Discourse appears in the 6th chapter of St. John’s Gospel. So I’ll take the Church’s lead and reflect on the Eucharist the next 5 weekends as well.
