PENTECOST SUNDAY 28th May 2023
The coming of the Holy Spirit is a gift of God for all peoples: the sign of his presence is in the reconciliation, justice and peace we create among people. The feast today is both a gift and a call: a call to be the ones who make the Holy Spirit present among God’s people everywhere.
THE ASCENSION OF THE LORD (World Communications Day) 21st May 2023
The Lord is absent: that was the first experience of Jesus’ followers after his death. But even though he has returned to his Father, he is with us. Today’s feast is the celebration that he is present both in heaven and on earth.

SIXTH SUNDAY OF EASTER 14th May 2023
Wherever the love and compassion of Jesus is present; there we find his Spirit. Wherever his people try to spread some justice and equality, we find his Spirit. In any work of reconciliation or of peace, his Spirit is present. We are called to be people who spread the work and the presence of his Spirit.
FIFTH SUNDAY OF EASTER 7th May 2023
The centre of Christianity is not a rule of law, a code of behaviour, but a Person whose love we receive and whose life we imitate. Jesus is in this manner, ‘’the way, the truth and the life.’’

THIRD SUNDAY OF EASTER 23rd April 2023

SECOND SUNDAY OF EASTER (Divine Mercy Sunday) 16th April 2023
Easter for Thomas was a rediscovery of his faith in Jesus. The risen power of the Lord is the basis for his people’s faith.
EASTER DAY OF THE LORD’S RESURRECTION 9th April 2023
A day of hope: of flowers and candles, new colour and new light. A day of smiles and of friendship, new joy and new companionship in Christ. A day of hope for those who suffer and who are sad. A day which promises the victory of God’s love over sin and death
