A community in Christ seeking and sharing transforming grace, reconciling love and compassionate hope
The Reading from the Saints, this Sunday, was a reflection on Scripture. I found it reminded me about the dynamic in life, where God draws us closer to his heart. Sometimes we return to the same point but find new depths, sometimes something that was unfathomable before become clearer. This reading by Saint Ephrem, reminds […]
Here is a summary of Fr Neil’s homily for 9th February: Jesus calls those who follow him ‘salt and light.’ Salt preserves and purifies, light scatters darkness, brings understanding and reveals the way. Salt and light are the characteristics of all Christians. Therefore we should not hide or neglect to use those gifts or follow […]
Many years ago, I was a member of a Baptist Church. On the wall at the front, behind the enormous pulpit, which dominated everything, was a wooden plaque. On it was written “Worship the Lord in the beauty of Holiness.” I often read it with the feeling that I didn’t really know what it meant. […]
Here is Fr Neil’s Candlemas Homily: The gospel tells of an ordinary, every day event in the life of the People of God and in the ministry of the Temple. The law required the presenting of a first-born male, who belongs to the Lord. The child was to be redeemed at the cost of 5 […]
Sometimes, when washing up gets boring, I listen to something. This week I listened to an audio of a talk given by the philosopher Peter Kreeft, entitled “Ecumenism without compromise.” (For those who take in information better when it is read, here is the transcript.) It is very thought provoking and while I was listening, […]
Last Sunday’s readings continue the theme of revealing Christ and of our vocation. The Gospel has the fulfilling of Isaiah’s prophecy and Jesus proclaiming the Kingdom of Heaven. He then calls the first disciples, who leave everything and follow him. Here is a summary of Fr Neil’s homily: Important to our self-understanding and us are […]

Jesus answered Simon Peter, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah! For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven. And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.”

And a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars. She was pregnant and ... gave birth to a male child, one who is to rule all the nations with a rod of iron, but her child was caught up to God and to his throne, and the woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared by God. And I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying, ‘Now the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God and the authority of his Christ have come.’

We’re serving bacon butties after Mass on Sunday, to extend the fellowship and have the opportunity to bid farewell to Fr John, who is returning to Nigeria.
Peter got out of the boat and walked on the water and came to Jesus. But when he saw the wind, he was afraid, and beginning to sink he cried out, ‘Lord, save me.’ Jesus immediately reached out his hand and took hold of him, saying to him, ‘O you of little faith, why did you doubt?’ And when they got into the boat, the wind ceased. And those in the boat worshipped him, saying, ‘Truly you are the Son of God.’
