Reflections.......

Fresh Eyes for 2018

Pope Francis’ encyclical, Laudato Si’ on Care for Our Common Home makes hard and painful reading

​

Why Church?

The Church as the body of Christ has many faces.

​

Why go to Mass?

Why do we go?  To meet Jesus, the Jesus who loves us, forgives us, helps us and transforms our lives and outlook.

​

This life will go by fast

Don’t fight with people, don’t criticize your body so much, and don’t complain so much.

​

Let us love, not with words but with deeds 

“Little children, let us not love in word or speech, but indeed and in truth
