As we listen to God's word each Sunday, we are asked to stop and reflect. We are asked to celebrate God's presence and we are challenged to respond in faith. Although the world continues to be in need of transformation, God's presence and our blessings remain constant. Jesus sent out His disciples to spread the Good News of love, forgiveness & redemption. We are asked to be examples of Ills goodness in our society - to put aside worldly things. We are reminded that the results of our words and good deeds are not meant to point to our own success but to the glory of God, who in flis love and mercy reserves a place for all faithful in His kingdom.
Thanks be to God!

VOCATION VIEW: Can you image Jesus, facing His fate in the Garden of Gethsemani, deciding: "No, I'll not go through with this?" No, vocation means perseverance.

PRAYER FOR VOCATIONS
O God, who has chosen the Apostles to propagate the faith & to 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 gladly devote their entire lives in making YOU known & loved by all. Through the intercession of Our Blessed Lady, we ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.

DID YOU KNOW
That 7 days without prayer makes one weak.
