“Lord Jesus, present in the Most Blessed Sacrament, and living perpetually among us through
Your Priests, grant that the words of Your Priests may be only Your words, that their gestures be
only Your gestures, and that their lives be a true reflection of Your life."
Pope Francis encourages us “The Holy Spirit teaches us to
see with the eyes of Christ, to live life as Christ lived, to
understand life as Christ understood it. That is why the living
water, who is the Holy Spirit, quenches our life, why he tells us
that we are loved by God as children, that we can love God as
his children and that by his grace we can live as children of
God, like Jesus. And we, do we listen to the Holy Spirit? What
does the Holy Spirit tell us? He says: God loves you. He tells us this. God loves
you, God likes you. Do we truly love God and others, as Jesus does? Let us allow
ourselves to be guided by the Holy Spirit, let us allow him to speak to our heart”
(Pope Francis, St. Peter’s Square, Vatican).
HAPPY FATHER’S DAY
A Dad is a person who is loving and kind,
And often he knows what you have on your mind.
He's someone who listens, suggests, and defends.
A dad can be one of your very best friends!
He's proud of your triumphs, but when things go wrong,
A dad can be patient and helpful and strong
In all that you do, a dad's love plays a part.
There's always a place for him deep in your heart.
And each year that passes, you're even more glad,
More grateful and proud just to call him your dad!
Thank you, Dad... for listening and caring,
for giving and sharing, but, especially, for just being
you!
God, bless all the fathers in the world. Guide them to be good role models
and loving to all their children.
Help them to be a father like You are.
Give them grace and patience to handle situations in a loving way. Amen!
We remember and pray for all the Dad’s who are now longer with us.

Trinity Sunday
This Sunday one week after Pentecost the Church celebrates the
Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity, the feast which commemorates the
mystery at the heart of the Christian faith, our belief in one God as
three divine persons, Father, Son and the Holy Spirit. We profess our
belief in this unfathomable mystery each time we make the Sign of the
Cross and say the Creed at Mass on Sundays. The scripture readings today speak of the
Trinitarian love of God for his people. In the Gospel Jesus leaves his disciples with a
message of profound of hope before his death on the Cross when he tells them that they
will never be alone because the Holy Spirit will come and will lead them into the complete
truth.
The disciples depended on the strength of the Holy Spirit to continue the mission of Jesus in the world and we are no different. We are called to be like Christ – to love as he
loved and that is why we need the Holy Spirit – we are not capable out of ourselves to do
it on our own. We are given the gift of the Holy Spirit at Baptism and are transformed into
children of God which means that his love is really present in our hearts. The Holy Spirit
gives us the courage and the strength to say yes to God in our lives, guiding us into the
way of truth and love. But do we recognise God’s love? Do we open our hearts to our
Father in heaven just as a little child does to their mother and father? By being attentive
to the Spirit we can begin to see with the eyes of a child again and treasure the simple
things in life, recognising that we are loved and cherished as God’s children.
Perhaps this week each time we make the Sign of the Cross, we can ponder on the deep
love the Father has for us and offer our thoughts and prayers to him through this simple
act of faith. In this way we can open our hearts to the Holy Spirit who will direct, shape
and mould us into missionaries of God’s love if we but listen.
