Young People of the Our Lady of the Assumption Parish Onehunga

Another beautiful and special Sunday spent together at the hospital for the Holy Eucharist. Today was also extra special as we celebrated and remembered all our Fathers. Reflecting on today’s Gospel reading Matthew 18:15–20, we are reminded of the importance of walking together, loving one another and being present for each other in faith. “For where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I among them.” On this special Father’s Day, we also remember with love all our Fathers and loved ones who have gone before us.May they continue to rest peacefully in God’s eternal love, forever held close in our hearts♥️

May we continue to walk together as Young People, carrying the love of Christ wherever we go and being a light of hope to those we meet along the way.Until our next Hospital Ministry🙏🏽
