Fr. Michael writes:-
Today the Church invites us to celebrate the mystery of the
Trinity. We begin our prayers and each Sunday Mass with the
names of the Father, the Son and the Spirit on our lips. We
can only come to this mystery with a childlike love and trust.
The more we discover about God, the greater becomes the mystery
of his presence and love. As Christians our principal entrance
into the mystery of God is the Person of Jesus. He is the Way,
the Truth and the Life. To make our journey to God the Father
we
begin with Jesus. In the person of Jesus God has a face, a voice,
a love. The Feast of Pentecost reminded us that to understand
the truth of God we need to be gifted with the power of the
Spirit. So it is the mystery of the Trinity that is at the heart
of the Christian life of faith. Which is why we begin everything
in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
First
Holy Communion
Today we begin our season of First Holy Communion Masses,
at 10.00 am and 11.30 am fifteen children will receive
Holy Communion today. We pray for them and their families
as they take this important step.
Feast of Corpus Christi
Next Thursday, 15th June, is the Feast of Corpus Christi
and a Holy day of Obligation. Masses will take place
on Wednesday at 8.00 pm and on Thursday at 10.00 am
and 8.00 pm. At these Masses all Eucharistic Ministers
will be recommissioned for another year. New Eucharistic
Ministers commissioned on Thursday evening (15th June).
Parish Talk
We are called to be open to life. Is this true of our
society and families where it involves self-sacrifice
and self-giving? Humanae Vitae is one of the most controversial
areas of Church teaching, but we ought to be open to
hearing its beautiful vision of human life. Fr. Anthony
Doe will be speaking on “The Call to Discipleship
: Nurturing Life” in the Hesdin Hall at
8.00 pm on Tuesday, 13 June. Fr. Anthony is an excellent
speaker. He grew up in Ruislip and is a qualified psychotherapist
and chaplain to the Kensington Carmel.
Please pray
Please pray for Fr. Agustin who was ordained on Saturday
and who will be joining us as a newly ordained priest
early in September.
Sympathy
Our sympathy and prayers to the family of Norah Holley
who has died. Her body will be received into the Church
this Monday at 5.30 pm. The Funeral Mass will be on
Tuesday 13th at 2.00 pm.
Our sympathy and prayers to Mary Vecchione and family
on the death of Nick. The Funeral Mass for Nick Vecchione
will take place next Friday 16th June at 10.00 am and
afterwards to Ruislip Crematorium.
APF Promoters
Please collect the APF magazines for distribution from
the table in the porch. Thank you – John Wilson.
God our loving Father,
who made us your children
in baptism, pour out on us afresh the gifts of your
Holy Spirit.
Open our ears to
hear your Word,
open our hearts to
you in prayer,
that we may receive
with ever deeper faith the
Bread of Life.
Strengthened through
these gifts
make us signs of
your presence
to the world of today.
Father, hear our
humble prayer
through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen
