Parish News: Sixth Sunday and Week of Easter

May 20, 2022 by Guy Willis

 

“Lord Jesus Christ, who said to your Apostles: Peace I leave you, my peace I give you” – words said at every mass, taken from the Gospel for today. Hardly a present universal reality, so just an aspiration? Far more than that: because as God’s children we know that we are loved and we know the eternal peace of heaven for which we hope. With that knowledge, even in the worst of times, we can have true peace.

You can read the scripture readings for this Sunday here. 

Please pray for:
The sick and those in need
Conor, Chinye, Adelida, Jason, Rod Edny & John.

The Faithful departed
All who have worshipped in and served at Saint Benet’s and those whose year’s mind falls this week.
