THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: The (extra)ordinary experience of 'everyday' love is itself a sacrament. As such, it mediates the love of God and gives us both an experience and a languag by which we may speak of God, God who is love itself.

( Fr. Kieran O'Mahony, osa )


SAINTLY QUOTES: “Our goal must be the infinite and not the finite. The infinity is our homeland. We are always expected in Heaven.”  ( Carlo Acutis )

“Our frenetic pace of life has made us forget that each of us must climb Golgotha sooner or later.”  ( Carlo Acutis )


LEYLAND MEETING: Thanks to the people who went to Leyland last Thursday to voice their desires as to the kind of person the future Archbishop of Liverpool should be.


CHRISTIAN UNITY:  We carry on our prayers this week which officially end on Saturday. May we respect the beliefs of each other, and see God's image in everybody we encounter each day.


HOLY DOOR: The Holy Door is now open at St. Mary's. I am sure there is a list of how you can gain Indulgences throughout the Jubilee Year.


NEWSLETTER:  New Editors from next Sunday!!


WEEKDAY MASS: Weekday Masses in the near future will be Wednesday – Friday instead of Tuesday – Thursday.


READERS: We could do with some more Readers, especially men. Reading is a “Ministry” which is very important because the Reader speaks in the Lord's Name and so it needs to be done well. Even with modern microphones you need to project your voice. Also, all our Masses are streamed and so you can be seen and heard worldwide.


UKRAINE: Bishop Gregori arrives tomorrow. I am hearing that Pope Francis intends to go to the Ukraine at sometime in the year. Great news!!
