A message from Fr John

Posted on: 26/06/2020

Dear Friends

Good morning

Well it’s good for the Harris’s and not so good for the Stansburys! Next season it’s the turn of the very best!

This morning we might pray for patience - courtesy of the Jesuits

Take a moment to relax and settle into stillness. Notice the natural rhythm of you breath and give thanks for the life it gives. Bidden or not bidden, God is present.

Let nothing disturb you,

Let nothing frighten you,

All things will pass away.

God never changes;

Patience obtains all things,

Whoever has God lacks nothing.

God alone suffices.

Amen

St Teresa of Avila
