Visible Expression

The ecclesial community, while always having a universal dimension, finds its most immediate and visible expression in the parish. It is there that the Church is seen locally. In a certain sense it is...

"... the Church living in the midst of the homes of her sons and daughters..."

Pope John Paul II
Christifideles Laici [27]

Reflection of Today's Readings 

"...Your liberation is near at hand..."

We have no reason to fear the second coming of Christ
 if we allow God to teach us how to grow in holiness.
We ask Him to help us to love one another with generosity
and integrity. In this way we will be able to hold our heads
 high and have the strength necessary to survive all that will
happen in our lives so that when the tume comes we will stand
 un confidence before Christ and his saints.
