THE FOURTH SUNDAY of EASTER

Dear friends,

I hope that you are all well and that you have all had a good week. We extend a warm welcome to everyone. Please join us for worship. Please see our parish website and parish facebook page for information of our weekly services, forthcoming events and devotional aids.  

GOOD SHEPHERD SUNDAY

This week we celebrate Good Shepherd Sunday. We give thanks to God for the presence of the risen Christ in our daily lives. Jesus is the Good Shepherd who knows each of us intimately, who care for each of us as a shepherd cares for the sheep. Jesus, the Good Shepherd, calls each of us by name to follow him. He calls us to live our lives as members of his flock in this world, to proclaim and share his love and concern for all his people in our own words and actions,  that we might come to share the glory of his eternal risen life in the next.

Your friend and priest, Fr. Gary Powell.
