REFLECTION FOR TODAY - 30th Sunday in Ordinary Time
“Heart to God. Hand to Man.” These words were painted on the old Salvation Army Op. Shop in Hastings.
“Heart to God. Hand to Man.” It is a clever paraphrasing of the answer that Jesus gives to the lawyer’s
question, “Which is the greatest commandment?” Jesus brings together two Old Testament commandments
and makes them equal and inseparable like the two faces on a single coin: love God; love your neighbour.
He is not talking about the introspective, candy floss emotion of pop songs or soap operas. This love looks
outward, it is robust and practical. It can be as ordinary as returning a man’s cloak because “what else would
he sleep in?” So let us never be slow to practise (and to teach) the simple courtesies of kindness, sharing
and patience because in them lie the seeds of those higher forms of love: compassion, self-sacrifice and
tolerance.
(G.M.)

Baptised Anglicans, Presbyterians, Methodists etc.
Baptised Catholics who missed out on 1st Communion, 1st Reconciliation, Confirmation.

Our “Little Learners” group on Wednesday afternoons has been a great success and many of the pre-schoolers who attended are now

Our older students delight in caring for these little ones. Next Friday is our annual Feast Day when we celebrate being a happy and
vibrant school and enjoy the fun and laughter of games and activities. It will begin with a whole school Mass and sometime during the
day Father Vince will bless our new ‘sacred space’ where children can go to reflect and pray. Teresa Neilson D.R.S.
