Catholic Life & Reflection
Catholic Life and Reflection
What we have been learning about.
Staff prayer has been another glorious exploration this week. The focus has been “Awaken”, taking inspiration from the sunrise. What does it mean to be awake? How are we called to be awoken to our faith?
Confirmation
Last Friday we celebrated the final group of students who made their Confirmation. Father Kimi in his Homily reminded them of the deep love God has for each of us. He even went as far to say that if they forget this simple but profound truth then to come to Mass to hear it. If they don’t hear this message when they attend the liturgy then to approach him personally and he will remind them.
I hope that anyone will take up the invitation if they need it.
Please keep them all in your prayers.
Catholic Life and Reflection
God wants us to be fully alive, full of light, full of wisdom, and fully awakened to God's presence.
We were created to shine and reflect God’s light. We are not a reflection of this world, but rather a representation of the Kingdom of Heaven. Jesus glowed and emanated peace and love. I imagine everyone saw it.
You and I are designed by God to know God and to rejoice in God's magnificence. Bible verses speak of mountains singing, the rivers clapping their hands and singing in praise to God? If the mountains can sing and rivers can clap their hands in praise to God, why not all of me and all of you?
God bless,
