"Alas for you”

Just a few thoughts

·        "I know you've heard it a thousand times before. But it's true - hard work pays off. If you want to be good, you have to practice, practice, practice. If you don't love something, then don't do it." -- Ray Bradbury

·        Christian authoritative teachings are grounded in the tradition of scriptures and the believing community’s reflection on those scriptures over the centuries.  The articulation of those teachings can be dated and jarring to a modern listener unfamiliar with the tradition, especially in relation to issues in which there have been profound new discoveries in the social and physical sciences.  Those teachings can be so jarring as to be wrong or at least in need of restatement.

·        We pray for all who are implementing the Australian Plenary Council and preparing for the world Synod on Synodality. May they be guided by the power and wisdom of the Holy Spirit.
