Next Sunday is Rosary Sunday and we celebrate the memorial of Our Lady of the Rosary next Wednesday, a feast to remember many victories and advantages gained by the church in time of fierce persecutions in the 15th Century, through praying the rosary. Let us try to make time in our busy lives to pray the rosary daily.
For the whole month of October there will be recitation of the rosary immediately after each Mass. In praying the rosary may it bring us closer to Jesus and Mary by meditating on the great mysteries of our salvation.
Dear Parishioners,
The parish website is updated with the Mass times and weeky newsletter for this week, Fr. Jose’s weekly message, and church notices.
Today is Evangelii Gaudium (Home Mission) Sunday. The second collections provide the bishops of England and Wales with resources to support Home Mission, the spread of the Gospel in our own country.
Thursday is the feast of Our Lady of Walsingham. There will be the usual morning Mass at 10am and Solemn Mass at 7pm preceded by recitation of the holy rosary at 6.30pm.
Next Sunday is our Harvest Thanksgiving Celebration. We take this opportunity to invite parishioners to make offerings and donations to be blessed after Mass before distribution to those in our community. We would kindly ask you not to donate fresh food, for obvious reasons.
Have a great week!
Fr. Jose
Dear family members and friends: Today’s Gospel is actually an invitation for us to discover our identity and also our value as human beings. It is also an answer to the so called disparity in the earnings of different people. One important thing we should have in mind is the value God gives us out of His generosity. As in the parable the landowner calls the labourers on his own will and plan. Each one has to recognize his role and part in the work and at the same time respect others also recognising their role and part they do. Ultimately at the end of our life we will be given the reward according to our deeds and out of God’s generosity. Amen
