Weekly reflection
Grateful hearts......
This year’s 1st Holy Communion children and families gathered last Saturday , as a group, for a Thanksgiving Mass.
We celebrate the greatest love of Jesus as He offers Himself, the Bread of Life, to them in the gift of Holy Communion. Firstly, to say how proud we are of the children, none more so than their families and friends but on behalf of the whole parish Congratulations. And our gratitude and thanks to all who have been alongside them on this stage of the journey family, catechists, parish clergy, friends and teachers.
If we may call the Mass the beating Heart of our faith then we hope, encourage and pray that the children will continue to grow into a regular and healthy spiritual 'heartbeat' as they come to know more and more the closeness of Jesus in the Eucharist. This mystery and miracle of our faith contains the joy and consolation of Our Lord's Real Presence sustaining and nourishing us along our journey through life.
And this weekend we hold in a prayer Gary, who is Ordained to the Priesthood at Arundel Cathedral. It is a moment of great joy as he begins his priestly ministry within the Diocese. As a priest at the altar, our new Fr Gary will be an instrument in the hands of the Lord, making present Christ in the Most Holy Eucharist. Our prayers go with him.
Let us have grateful and joyful hearts for all that the Lord is doing amongst us.
With every blessing,
Fr Simon
