The Gospel this Sunday speaks of the Word of God as the seed of eternal life, and Christ warns against the ways in which this seed can be stifled. Though many areas of life are winding down as we approach summer, may our relationship with the Word never dwindle, and may we keep our ears open to the voice of the Lord.

FR TOM WRITES
As we approach summer it feels as though things are winding down in the parish and in the school, however, this Sunday’s Second Reading is a reminder to not allow ourselves to slip back into the life of the flesh but to constantly allow room in our lives for the Spirit. The Spirit wants to make a home in you, not only to fill a void, but to allow us to live a life overflowing with love.

FR DAVID WRITES
Today is the solemnity of the holy apostles Peter and Paul. By their ministry to the Roman Christians and by the testimony of their blood, they became the patrons of the City and the Church of Rome. Today, as we honour their discipleship and the witness of their martyrdom, we pray for the Pope and for the unity of the Church throughout the world. We also ask the Risen Lord to help us in our own way of discipleship, that we may always hear and respond to his call, ‘Follow me’. Felicem festum, O felix Roma!

FR DAVID WRITES
Today our journey through the summer season of Ordinary Time continues. In the Gospel Jesus gives a word of encouragement to his followers to be free from fear. He also gives a word of caution: to remain faithful to God and to be ready to be his fearless witnesses in the world today. Next weekend, we will celebrate the Feast of Saints Peter and Paul. They were also free from fear, and displayed a courageous faith which allowed them to witness to Christ even to the point of their martyrdom. May God give us strength, joy and a courageous faith to witness to the Risen Lord!

After the seasons of Lent and Easter, as well as the feasts of the Holy Trinity and Corpus Christi, this Sunday the Church returns to Ordinary Time. It is easy for us to think this time is less significant, yet, it is a beautiful time in which we discover the joy of following the Lord in the simplicity of our daily lives. May we seek the Lord no less now than we do at other times of the year, and may we desire to become more and more like him in all our thoughts, words and actions.

FR TOM WRITES
Following the culmination of the Easter season and the celebration of Pentecost last Sunday, today we celebrate Holy Trinity Sunday and next Sunday, Corpus Christi. May these Sundays after Easter help us to live our daily lives as Christians, seeking to share in the love and unity of the Trinity and drawing strength from our Lord in the Eucharist. May God bless you all in the coming week.
