FEAST OF THE HOLY FAMILY (YEAR C) 27TH DECEMBER, 2015

Parish Office hours for January: The Office for Holy Trinity Parish will be open each day (Mon-Fri) from 9am to 12noon. Priests and Pastoral Associates are on-call at this time and week day masses are as normal. We wish our music groups a well deserved rest in the month of January too!!

THANK YOU…. Especially at this time... for your love freely given! In this new year of ‘Mercy’ proclaimed by Pope Francis for our church around the world we hope that our

door will remain open especially and importantly the door to our heart! The doors to our mind and heart

must be open to all people in need, especially the refugees, disadvantaged and people in need.

We wish all Parishioners a very Happy and blessed Christmas. We wish to thank all of you who have helped

us throughout the year. Without the many wonderful and generous people of our Parish Family who help

and assist, we could not accomplish what we do. Thank you!!! (especially the wonderful pastoral team) M.

ST. PAUL’S NOTICES

FEAST OF THE HOLY FAMILY (YEAR C)

GOSPEL: Luke 2:41-52 Every year the parents of Jesus used to go to Jerusalem for the feast of the

Passover. When he was twelve years old, they went up for the feast as usual.

When they were on their way home after the feast, the boy Jesus stayed

behind in Jerusalem without his parents knowing it. They assumed he was with

the caravan, and it was only after a day’s journey that they went to look for

him among their relations and acquaintances. When they failed to find him

they went back to Jerusalem looking for him everywhere.

Three days later, they found him in the Temple, sitting among the doctors,

listening to them, and asking them questions; and all those who heard him

were astounded at his intelligence and his replies. They were overcome when

they saw him, and his mother said to him, ‘My child, why have you done this to

us? See how worried your father and I have been, looking for you.’ ‘Why were

you looking for me?’ he replied. ‘Did you not know that I must be busy with my

Father’s affairs?’ But they did not understand what he meant.

He then went down with them and came to Nazareth and lived under their authority. His mother

stored up all these things in her heart. And Jesus increased in wisdom, in stature, and in favour

with God and men.

NO COMMUNION : No communion service during January. Will start back

25th January 2016.
