Mass 5.30pm For People of the Parish
W hen we achieve something momentous or finish a task that has
taken a lot of effort, we usually want to sit back and admire what
we have done, to take stock and rest on our laurels for a while. So
after the events of Easter youd expect the Church to sit back and
bask in the glo-ry of it all. But youd be wrong!
Today, just one week after the cli-max of Easter were told that
we have to be on the move, wit-nessing to our faith in Christ. In
fact, thats hardly surprising since in todays scripture we meet the
risen Christ on that first Easter Sunday in Johns gospel. He goes
to the disciples and tells them that just as the Father sent him,
so now he is sending them out to be witnesses of his resurrection.
Theres no time to laze around. A lot of us have a prob-lem
witnessing to our
faith. Perhaps we feel awkward or embar-rassed about the
pro-spect of talking to others about our beliefs. Maybe we are put
off by the thought of being tarred with the same brush as those who
knock on peoples doors or stand
ranting against the world on high streets or mar-kets in many of
our towns and cities. It could be that we think witness-ing to our
faith is the job of the clergy and is best left to them. Whatever
the reason its certainly the case that theres a lot less of it now
than there used to be.
Of course, faith is good to have but not good to hold on to. Its
intended
to be passed on and its the job of every baptised Christian to
share in that task of letting others know about Jesus Christ and
the promises he has made in his Fathers name. But witnessing to
this doesnt mean that we have to stand on a
soapbox in some public place. They say that faith is caught not
taught. Most of us catch it from our parents or some person who
means a lot to us.
W e can witness to Christ by the
example of our lives, by the way we treat others, by the way we
simply stand up for those less fortunate than ourselves, by the way
we encour-age our own children in their faith and by the way we are
ready to be the first to lend a hand. So as the alleluias of the
resurrection begin to sound more distant, this is not the time to
press the re-wind button. Its time for the fast-forward!

Extraordinary Ministers of the Eucharist,
Following the Day of Reflection, and as a result of the
discussions, some guidelines have been prepared as a reminder of
what was agreed. Please collect a copy of the notes from the
Sacristy, af-ter Mass. For those unable to attend the Day, the
notes provide the agreed procedure to be used.
Ministers of the Word (Readers),
In a similar way, guidelines have been prepared to as-sist all
Readers in your role. Please collect a copy of the notes from the
Sacristy, after Mass.
Easter Flowers
A very big thank you to the parish for the generosity shown
regarding the flower collection for Easter. It was tremendous
response and I'm sure you will agree the church looked wonderful
for this, the most important festi-val of the year. Thank you also
to the 'flower arrangers' who used their talents for the glory of
God. Please remember we are always keen to take on new people who
would like to join the rota for flowers. Many hands mean the rota
is more spaced out and thus less frequent commitment for eve-ryone.
Please give some thought to joining this service to the parish.
