Journey in Faith Also known as the RCIA, this is a course that started on Thursday 30th October, in the parish for any who wish to consider becoming a Catholic. Some brochures are available. As an approach to this faith journey, We really recommend watching the excellent free YouTube series on the life of Jesus called The Chosen. On prayer and devotion watch the free sessions of Sycamore.fm as an introduction to a life of faith.  These are quality resources for any parishioner but especially those seeking to deepen their faith.

Pope Leo X1V has declared Sunday 16th November to be the 9th World Day of the Poor, with the theme “You are my hope” In his message the Holy Father urges us to recognize those experiencing poverty as “witnesses to a strong and steadfast hope, precisely because they embody it in the midst of uncertainty, poverty, instability and marginalization. The poor are not a distraction for the Church, but our beloved brothers and sisters, for by their lives, their words and their wisdom,.  They put us in contact with the truth of the Gospel

Eucharistic Adoration (2) You may think: "I do not have this true, great love for Jesus. I don't think Adoration is for me..." Do not worry. When one of St John Vianney's Parishioners being asked by the Saint what he said to Our Lord during those long silent hours in front of the Tabernacle, he replied: "Nothing. I look at him and he looks at me." Sometimes, when it comes to love, simple things are the best. Within this intimate moment with Jesus, you just simply be still and quiet whilst gaze on Him, open your heart and let Him do the rest. So even you feel you have little love, just go to Him! Even you are in trouble, just go to Him! Because Our Lord really is hidden there in the Blessed Sacrament, waiting for us to go and visit Him. Remember Jesus said in the Gospel: "...I was thirsty and you gave me drink… I was sick and you visited me. I was in prison and you came to me." (Matthew 25:35-36) Isn't it true that Our Lord is thirsty for souls, and by us going to Him His longing for us can be quenched? And isn't it true that He is wounded for our iniquities and bruised for our sins, and by us visiting Him so we can console Him for all the outrages He receives in His Most Sacred Heart? Isn't it true also that for our sake and His Love for us He becomes a Prisoner of Love in the Tabernacle, and by visiting Him we can show our gratitude and thank Him for dwelling amongst us and stay with us day and night until the end of time? And when we leave the Church, how can Our Blessed Lord, our God who is so generous and merciful, would let you leave empty-handed after your visit? Even your friend would treat you with maybe tea and biscuits when you go to visit. Therefore He would definitely shower you with abundant Gifts and Blessings. Blessed Carlo Acutis once said: "When we face the sun we get a tan… but when we stand before Jesus in the Eucharist we become saints."
