The Third Week of Easter

Journeying appears in the Easter Gospels reminding us of the gradual realisation of the disciples of the new risen life of Jesus. This Sunday it is the road to Emmaus from Luke’s Gospel. Just at the moment, all the plans for Summer journeys are under scrutiny – will there be enough jet fuel for the planes to take off ? Here in our community we continue moving to Pentecost awaiting the Holy Spirit. Journey on!

Sunday Afternoon – National Holy Hour

The Bishops of England and Wales have asked every Catholic Parish and Community to hold an Hour of Prayer for the Dignity of Life between 4:30 – 5:30pm. A text for the time has been made available. I do hope you may be able to devote the time to pray for human life, which is under strain at this time. For further details, please visit this link.

Pope Leo’s Apostolic Visit

Over ten days the Holy Father is visiting a number of African Counties. For further details follow this link.

The Word Of Life

Appropriately the text for prayerful reflection is from Sunday’s Gospel.

Coffee and cake
