Reflection
On the Feast of the Most Holy Trinity we celebrate all that God has revealed to us of God’s beauty and love. We thank God for the gift of faith and we pray that our faith in God may be deepened and lived out more fully in our daily lives. We pray again for the work of our Synod which will take place on Saturday 19th June. May the Synod help us all to live more fully the call we received when we were baptised in the name of the Holy Trinity.
Merciful God, Father Son and Holy Spirit, may you be faithfully loved, honoured and served by all the members of the Church. Guide the members of our Synod in the holy task you have entrusted to them. Help us all to proclaim your mercy and love to the ends of the earth. We ask this Father through our Lord Jesus Christ, your son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, for ever and ever.
Amen
Synod 2020
After a long journey, the Archdiocesan Synod will finally take place on Saturday 19th June on Zoom. Over the next four weeks, the Archbishop has asked us to prepare for this event in prayer. There will be a special prayer and reflection on the next three Sundays, culminating in a week of prayer before the 19th June. Please do your bit by praying for the success of the Synod over the next four weeks.
Retreat week
The Salesian Community are on their Province Retreat this week through zoom. It will be a quiet, prayerful time, with two talks every day. The Parish Masses will take place as normal.
Mobile phones
Can I remind people that we ask, as a courtesy to everyone, that you switch your mobile phone off during Mass. I regard it as a sign of disrespect to be texting and checking messages during Mass.
