Pope Francis' Urbi et orbi medication

 Pope Francis meditated on the calming of the storm from the Gospel of Mark during the prayer service over which he presided on the steps of St Peter's Basilica on Friday evening. Here is the full text.

“When evening had come” (Mk 4:35). The Gospel passage we have just heard begins like this. For weeks now it has been evening. Thick darkness has gathered over our squares, our streets and our cities; it has taken over our lives, filling everything with a deafening silence and a distressing void, that stops everything as it passes by; we feel it in the air, we notice in people’s gestures, their glances give them away. We find ourselves afraid and lost. Like the disciples in the Gospel we were caught off guard by an unexpected, turbulent storm. We have realized that we are on the same boat, all of us fragile and disoriented, but at the same time important and needed, all of us called to row together, each of us in need of comforting the other. On this boat… are all of us. Just like those disciples, who spoke anxiously with one voice, saying “We are perishing” (v. 38), so we too have realized that we cannot go on thinking of ourselves, but only together can we do this.

Sacred Heart Hospitality Ministry
Helping You .  .  .   Helping Me

The “Sacred Heart Hospitality Ministry” comprises of volunteers of the Parish under the guidance and leadership of our Pastor, Fr. Anselm Russell.  The main goal of this ministry is to provide support to those Parishioners who are lonely and need someone to talk to, or just to visit with them. Visits can be scheduled weekly, biweekly or as often as the need arises. So if you require a visit, or know of a Parishioner who may benefit from this type of support, please contact the Parish Office to schedule a visit.

We are one in the Spirit, We are one in the Lord . . .
