I’m sure you have all seen the news from the Prime Minister about the ‘rule of six’. Thankfully, these new restrictions do not apply to Masses here which can continue in the safe way we have developed. However, there are other ‘social’ elements to our life in the parish. We encourage parishioners to be cautious, especially about gathering outside after Mass. We are awaiting further updates on other activities, especially those which take place in the parish hall. Please continue to take care and keep safe—stay alert!

Today at Mass we hear about the very real challenge of discipleship, and the potential cost of becoming friends with Jesus. The Lord invites his followers to imitate him in every way, to be willing to take up their cross everyday and follow in the path of the Lord's saving journey. Nevertheless, we are aware that this journey of tribulation does indeed lead to redemption, and the bright glory of the resurrection.

Today at Mass we hear about Peter's confession of faith in Christ, the Son of the Living God, and then of the commission Peter received to become the first living stone on which the Church would be built. Peter also received the power of the keys and, together with the apostles and their successors, the ministry of governing. The Church, which is an eternal mystery, in established as Christ's Body in the world of time and history through his Paschal Mystery. Let us thank God that we have been gathered together into this great family, united in and around Peter's successors. Let us celebrate that, thanks to God's grace, the Church is always one, holy, catholic and apostolic.
