A message from Fr John
Posted on: 23/09/2020
Dear Friends
Good morning - getting cooler and darker for sure
Thank you for thinking about Cafod’s Harvest Fast Day
And now for something completely different:
Meister Eckhart was a Dominican priest, theologian and mystic of the 13th/14th Century. He’s not always the easiest to understand but his teaching was an important bridge during some troubled times in the Church.
One of his beautiful prayers reminds us of the utter centrality of God’s love in our lives.
'When I learn to love You
simply because You are Love,
I come to accept myself simply
because You made me in love
and you never stop making me.
And when I hold on to this and
let go of every doubt, I find
Your love in everything
and I become love in You
and You become love in me.'
Prayers please for Joe Walsh who is recovering after an accident
St Joseph, foster father of the Son of God, pray for us
Every blessing
Fr John
