3rd Sunday of Easter - 18th Abril 2021
Fr. Gerry Clarke SJ
Be open to the possibility that there is another way of looking at life than the scientific way of looking at life. Be open to a different interpretation of suffering than simply seeing it as pure evil to be avoided at all costs. And don’t fall into the trap if thinking that only what can be proved scientifically is truth.
Being part of a church is sharing the journey with men and women who seek the truth not scientifically or blindly for that matter, but in a different way. I always feel that Gospel Music offers a different path to truth. Founded on the assurance that we are good, that we have integrity. That we are loved and good, struggling but courageous, hesitant yet hopeful.

Pray with Pope Francis
Pope’s prayer intention for April:
For Fundamental Rights
“Let us pray for those who risk their lives while fighting for fundamental rights under dictatorships, authoritarian regimes and even in democracies in crisis, that they may see their sacrifice and their work bear abundant fruit.”
