Making Time to Meditate


Good morning everyone.
Ø  How Did You Feel?
On Wednesday we were trying to focus on the question - When churches closed how did you feel?
Today we invite you to think about the question:- How did you feel when you watched televised Masses?
Were you a spectator, perhaps pondering about the level of professionalism of the telecast?
Were you able to spiritually engage with ceremonies and the homilies?
If the C-Virus returns, and the chances are that is very likely at some stage, do you have ideas/suggestions for our Catholic Church to provide a different/better response?   Please share your thoughts.

Sursum Corda!

It goes like this:  At least I tried.”     
Ann Brashares

Reflection
I came across a reflection that made me think.  It was from a Lutheran pastor in Canada. It was long so I summarised it.  How Do We Pray

The Parish Choir members are saying ‘Hello’.
On Sunday the Communion hymn will be - The Beatitudes.  Please do sing along with this sound only version. We need a joyfully singing congregation! We really do, if we are celebrating a Eucharistic feast!
Lots more music below, but I just have to add this one - Dave Brubeck - Unsquare Dance
