Wonder, trust and faith

Just a few thoughts

• Every day, think as you wake up, today I am fortunate to be alive, I have a precious human life, I am not going to waste it. I am going to use all my energies to develop myself, to expand my heart out to others; to achieve enlightenment for the benefit of all beings. I am going to have kind thoughts towards others, I am not going to get angry or think badly about others. I am going to benefit others as much as I can. -- The Dalai Lama

• We pray for every Christian: may Mary’s Assumption be a sign of hope for us all as we make together our pilgrim journey through life with faith.

• We pray for aged care residents, staff and volunteers, that together they will create a friendly community of care and compassion.
