After celebrating Pentecost two weeks ago, when the Holy Spirit was sent to ‘make a home’ in us, and the Blessed Trinity last week, when we saw that we are invited to share in the inner life of God, who is Love, this week we return once again to the centre, the ‘still point’, the ‘omega point’, as we celebrate the most amazing gift of all left to us by Jesus – his own body and blood. 

God IS love, and in us, the “image and likeness of God” is seen and experienced every time we reach out in love to another person and every time we allow ourselves to accept the love of another person.  
“To love another person is to see the face of God.” This is the very last line of the musical Les Miserables. It is a line that that is worth remembering, and a line to return to in prayer. 

St Anthony's Novena - Starting Thurs 5th June and concludes on his feast day Friday 13th June

Two daily sessions 10am and 5.45pm Mon - Fri, Sat 10am and 6pm, Sun 10.30am.

At the end of His earthly life Jesus ascends triumphantly into heaven. The Church acclaims Him in His holy humanity, invited to sit on the Father's right hand and to share His glory.

The Gospels are crystal clear in their assertion that Jesus came among us because “God loved the world so much…

We must never take the Gospels for granted or cease to wonder at the majesty of the story they tell us. It is a story “…too wonderful for us, too high, beyond our grasp.” and yet, thanks to the life, death and resurrection of Jesus it is simply the story of Love.
