Wednesday 12th August

Coronavirus Social Distancing restrictions mean that we have a limited seating capacity of 50

Too often, when someone does something of which we disapprove, we become very judgemental and a relationship is potentially damaged. All too often the first port of call is social media. In today's Gospel, Jesus offers his disciples spiritual freedom and power for restoring broken or injured relationships and gives them practical guidance

If we truly want to settle a difference with someone, we need to do it face to face. One of the worst things we can do is brood over our grievance. This can poison our mind and heart and make it more difficult to think and behave as Jesus would want us to.

When we are offended, are we willing to put aside our own grievance and injury in order to put things right? The Lord Jesus wants to set us free from resentment, ill-will, and an unwillingness to forgive. The love of Christ both purifies and sets us free to do good to all - even those who cause us grief. The call to accountability for what we have done and have failed to do is inevitable and we can't escape it, both in this life and at the day of judgement when the Lord Jesus will return. But while we have the opportunity today, we must not give up on praying for those who cause us offence. With God's help we must seek to make every effort to become reconciled with them with the grace and power of God's healing love and wisdom. Do we do our best to repair broken relationships as God would want us to? Or do we wallow in self pity and self righteousness. Do we do what we can to gather each other into the fullness of God's grace? Do we acknowledge the fault that may be on our part? Now is the time to put things right.

"Where two or three are gathered in my name I am there among them "

August

The month of August is dedicated to The Immaculate Heart of Mary. The entire month falls within the liturgical season of Ordinary Time, which is represented by the liturgical colour green. This symbol of hope is the colour of the sprouting seed and arouses in the faithful the hope of reaping the eternal harvest of heaven, especially the hope of a glorious resurrection. It is used in the offices and Masses of Ordinary Time.

Mass can be followed on these links.
