This is an opportunity for us to come together to celebrate and thank God for the Catholic faith shared among the many nationalities that make up our parish family here at St. Simon’s. After the Mass we will gather in the church hall to share food and friendship. Anyone who would like to be involved in help plan the day, to help set up the hall, volunteer as singers, readers, or supplying food or drink for the shared lunch please put your name on the sheet on the noticeboard or see Titus or Thereza after Mass.

Dear family members and friends, Something very significant happened on eight days after Easter. That was a special appearance of Jesus to the disciples especially to Thomas to make him believe that Jesus was risen. There we see the most important declaration of faith by Thomas, “My Lord and my God.” This Sunday is also called ‘New Sunday’ marking the start of a new spiritual life Traditionally it is the day on which the experience of the new Christian life begins, particularly for those who were baptised on Easter Sunday. Let us renew our faith in Jesus declaring Him as our Lord and our God and continue our Christian life more faithfully.

Today is also celebrated as the Divine Mercy Sunday when we remember the love and mercy shown in Jesus. Entrusting fully to Him let us say, “Jesus I trust in You.” Amen

Dear family members and friends: We are entering the Holy Week with the remembrance of the solemn entry of Jesus into Jerusalem to accomplish the Paschal Mystery. The solemn entry of Jesus was to undergo the suffering and crucifixion awaited for Him. In this Holy Week we also celebrate the Lord’s Supper where He instituted the Sacraments of Holy Eucharist and Priesthood, the Good Friday where we commemorate the Crucifixion and death of Jesus for our salvation and also the Easter vigil when we will celebrate the resurrection of Jesus defeating death and sufferings. Through the days of lent, we were preparing for these moments of salvation. Let us wholeheartedly participate in all the liturgical services with a heart full of hope and joy. Amen
