Dear Friends,

We heard at today's Mass of the vision of God including all in salvation:

I, John, had a vision of a great multitude,
which no one could count,
from every nation, race, people, and tongue.
They stood before the throne and before the Lamb,
wearing white robes and holding palm branches in their hands.

It seems from this Scripture in heaven there are still obvious differences between people present in this age. Ethnic and cultural differences are clearly seen and good. God preserves them in the age to come to show his gift of beauty in diversity! ( Taken from John Bergsma, The Word of the Lord, Cycle C, 2021)

This Fall we will sponsor study sessions on the Book of Revelation. I and others will lead a discussion of methods to interpret this mysterious Book of the Bible. Stay tuned!

As we gather at the Lord's table, we rejoice in our unity and diversity. God rejoices in our unity and diversity!

We give thanks that so many young are receiving their first communion at the 10.30 am Mass. Communion on Sunday should move us to desire Christ every Sunday and in union with each other. I thank our parents and catechists for their care of our children and for bringing them to this day.

God bless our Mothers and our families as we celebrate this joyous day!

Father Kevin
