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 TOM WRITES
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 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!
