CATHOLIC PARISH OF OUR LADY AND ALL SAINTS www.basildoncatholics.org Sunday 23rd October 2016 Thirtieth Sunday in Ordinary Time 01268 281732 Sunday 30th October 2016 Sunday 6th November 2016 Thirty-First Sunday in Ordinary Time Thirty-Second Sunday in Ordinary Time The Sunday Readings are from Year C in the Lectionary. The Weekday Readings are from Year Two From Clare.... TheSr Sunday Readings are from Year C in the Lectionary. The Weekday Readings are from Year Two ‘Blessed are the Peacemakers for they shall be called the sons and daughters of God.’ In these days when we continually witness so much evidence of war and violence in the world on our TV screens we may wonder how we, as individuals, can make a difference; and then recently I came across the six practices outlined by PAX CHRISTI as a way of helping people towards the Way of Non-Violence. It’s all about first of all recognising the violence in our own hearts, yet trusting in the mercy of God. It goes like this: Before God the Creator and the sanctifying Spirit, I promise to carry out in my life the love and example of Jesus by striving for peace within myself and seeking to be a peacemaker in my daily life; by accepting suffering rather than inflicting it; by refusing to retaliate in the face of provocation and violence; by living conscientiously and simply so that I do not deprive others of the means to live; by actively resisting evil and working non-violently to abolish war from my own heart and from the face of the earth. Lord, I trust in your sustaining love and believe that just as you gave me the grace and desire to offer this, so you will also bestow abundant grace to fulfil it.

Christmas Card Delivery across Basildon – Advance notice! Soon the Christmas displays will be in the shops, lights in the town, and ads on TV. But for what?
