A reading from the Holy Gospel according to John.

Jesus answered them: “You should not work for food that does not last, but for food that endures to eternal life; this is what the Chosen One can give you, for the Chosen One bears the seal of Abba God.”

 Jesus explained to them, “I am the bread of life. No one who comes to me will

ever be hungry; no one who believes in me will ever be thirsty.”

The Good News as spoken through John.
