CALL TO BE AN EVANGELISER
Pope Francis' constant refrain :
"Go forth" evangelize,
help the poor.
The Holy Spirit is the protagonist of evangelization.
The missionary church is a praying church. The history of missions is a history of prayer.
Everything vital to the success of the world’s evangelization hinges on prayer.
Archbishop John Wilson is calling us to be an evangelising and missionary archdiocese. This will not be
possible without prayer.
As we pray for our Church, we also pray that we are renewed.
VOLUNTEERING AT THE PARISH

CATECHESIS - FAITH FORMATION
Catechism of the Catholic Church--Two fold Paschal mystery - No. 654
The Paschal mystery has two aspects :
by his death, Christ liberates us from sin
by his Resurrection, he opens for us the way to a new life.
This new life is above all justification that reinstates us in God's grace, "so that as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might walk in newness of
life.
526--Justification consists in both victory over the death caused by sin and a new participation in grace.
527--It brings about filial adoption so that men become Christ's brethren, as Jesus himself called his disciples after his Resurrection: "Go and tell my brethren.
528--We are brethren not by nature, but by the gift of grace, because that adoptive filiation gains us a real share in the life of the only Son, which was fully revealed
in his Resurrection.
No.1169 : Therefore Easter is not simply one feast among others, but the "Feast of feasts," the "Solemnity of solemnities," just as the Eucharist is the "Sacrament of
sacraments" (the Great Sacrament). St. Athanasius calls Easter "the Great Sunday"43 and the Eastern Churches call Holy Week "the Great Week."
The mystery of the Resurrection, in which Christ crushed death, permeates with its powerful energy our old time, until all is subjected to him.

IMPORTANT EVENTS
On 17th July 2022 we welcomed Sr. Catherine and the Little Sisters
who shared their view of the newly canonised St. Charles de Foucauld in the church and showed a video in the hall.
Like Brother Charles, Little Sister Magdeleine (1898-1989) had a passion for living the Gospel radically. Following in his footsteps, she left for the Sahara where she
settled among and became close friends with a group of Muslim nomads who welcomed her into their lives.
The Congregation of the Little Sisters of Jesus was born there in 1939.
The congregation became marked by this simple friendship that took place at the very beginning and by the unity that existed between persons of different religions and backgrounds.
Did not the Son of God take this same approach of coming to others and letting oneself be welcomed?
He arrived among humankind, very tiny and in total confidence.
This “way” of Jesus in Bethlehem and Nazareth, the same way he comes in the Eucharist as a gift of love and an offering of unity, fashions our contemplative religious
life lived right in the midst of the world and in little communities.
Mixed into the ordinary life of the peoples who welcome us, often in places of division and exclusion,
we share the same living conditions, work, joys, sufferings, and struggles. And very often it is our friends who teach us how to hope!
God reveals himself in the ordinary of daily life, in tiny sparks of life that are sometimes quite surprising, and in bonds where differences become a blessing and seeds
of unity for the world.
St. Charles de Foucauld : “It is not necessary to teach others, to cure them or to improve them; it is only necessary to live among them,
sharing the human condition and being present to them in love.”
