THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK
Joy is not something that comes in different levels,
portions or sizes – you either have it or you don’t.
If you want joy, real joy, wonderful joy
– let Jesus come into your heart / life.
“Behold I stand at the door and knock…” (Rev. 3:20)
FEAST OF CORPUS CHRISTI
This Sunday after the 11.15am Mass a procession of the Blessed Sacrament will take place to the Convent Garden, where we will have Benediction. First Holy Communion children are invited to come in their First Holy Communion clothes and take part in the procession.
