“The stone rejected by the builders has become the
cornerstone”. Jesus is our cornerstone. He is the centre of
our faith. He loves us and calls us by our name. He takes care of
us, laying down his life like a shepherd taking care of his sheep. We
need to listen to His voice so that we can be good children of God.

establish Your Holy Church throughout the world, we earnestly beseech
You to choose from amongst our people many priests,
deacons, religious brothers & sisters and lay persons who will

all. Through the intercession of our Blessed Lady, we ask this
through Christ our Lord. Amen
