10th May
Sixth Sunday of Easter
Dear Friends,
Before Easter and the glory of the Resurrection of Jesus passes us by, we are soon celebrating the sixth Sunday of Easter. We are caught up in the events of the daily tasks; all the more reason why we should slow down at weekends and be better prepared for the Ascension of the Lord and the great feast of Pentecost. A few minutes each day will help us to recognise how lucky we are.
I do encourage you to reflect privately on the blessing you have received so that we will have a good word of encouragement for those around you. There is no ONE WAY, do it YOUR WAY.
Please pray for the 45 children & their families who received their First Holy Communion last weekend.
