Want to know the best way to get a better sense of what your parish is really like? Sit some place you don’t usually sit. Sit in the very back pew or stand along the back wall with those who came in late, or go to the crying room and participate in Mass there. You’ll see and hear what it’s lik...

Jesus’ words today don’t bring much comfort. But our comfort isn’t the goal of faith in Christ. Following Christ will call us to do many uncomfortable things. Recall some of the Gospel readings we’ve heard these past several weeks. Worried about breaking societal norms, the priest and the Le...

Jesus does not condemn the rich for being rich. Think of Zacchaeus, the wealthy tax collector who received Jesus’ blessings (Lk 19:1-10), or the rich man whom Jesus looked upon with love (Mk 10:21). Being rich does not make one a sinner, but being ‘not rich in what matters to God’ (Lk 12:21) m...

REFLECTION by GIA Quarterly Overview Today you might consider celebrating either the Order of Reception into the Full Communion of the Catholic Church of Those Already Validly Baptised or the Rite for Entrance into the Catechumenate (for unbaptised adults and children of catechetical age). Both rite...

REFLECTION by GIA Quarterly Overview We don’t know if Jesus’ arrival at Martha’s house was planned or an impromptu visit. Regardless, having a house guest always causes a disruption. We can choose to ignore them, or we can be good hosts, rearranging and even putting aside our daily tasks to at...

REFLECTION by GIA Quarterly Overview Jesus never calls the Samaritan ‘good’. Instead, he calls him ‘neighbour’. Similarly, the priest and Levite weren’t ‘bad’. They just weren’t neighbourly. Each of us can do both good and bad. The difference is whether we choose to be neighbours.

This year’s artwork is by PollyAnne Carter; "I have been called to spread the Word of God to grow people in faith with love to bring them into the Kingdom. Jesus showed us how to do this when he was on earth. Now we follow his example. Matthew 13:23

This Feast combines the previous feasts of Corpus Christi and the Precious Blood of Christ. It reminds us that the body and blood of Christ were offered as a sacrifice for us, and every time we re-enact this sacrifice, we renew his sacrifice. The Body and Blood of Jesus is the interim meal for the C...

Both the first reading and the psalm response celebrate the marvels of creation and the marvelous creator who brought them into being. Proverbs states that God created all of these things through Wisdom. While later theology will identify Wisdom with both the Word of God, the second person of the Tr...
