The commandment of God is to love him and love people: both are so interlinked that in loving people we love God.

We are continually in need of God’s healing power in Christ to cure our blindness to his ways and our deafness to his word. If our faith is strong enough for us to say ‘Jesus, have pity on me’ then we may be sure that he will save us.

Prisoners’ Sunday

The rich man kept his wealth, but he was sad. The gospel reminds us that full and true happiness is found, not in possessions and reputation, but in the way we share our lives in love with God and others.

The signs that Jesus is present and that we are his true witnesses is that we attend to our sick, console those who are in despair, befriend the friendless; work for social justice, we must not be mute through fear or self - protection. We must do all things well.

TWENTY - SECOND SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME 1st September 2024

World Day of Prayer for the Care of Creation

The times we live in show that we are not relating to the Earth as a gift from our Creator, but rather as a resource to be used. Only when we work together with Creation can the first fruits of hope be born.

TWENTY - FIRST SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME 25th August 2024

God gives us the freedom of choice. He forces no one to obey him. He leaves us free. Our world is full of contradictory voices and false prophets. May we not be led astray. Only Jesus can give us eternal life.
