COSTING NO LESS THAN EVERYTHING
Sometimes love costs no less than everything.
Parents know this in bringing up children in love; and then it costs a lot to let them go, as they make their way through life, finding their own feet, forming their own families.
And the love of God opens the door to people who are poor; if we fail to recognise the poor in our world we are missing God.
And we know that a passion for wealth can close us off from other people as we fail to see their needs and get into competition with them.
The call of the Lord is to give of ourselves for others, even when it hurts; and into a love which shares with those who are poor.
His love calls us, and when we live in this love of giving and receiving, we are the most blessed of people.

MISSION SUNDAY: Next Sunday is Mission Sunday and marks the annual worldwide Catholic celebration of Mission Sunday, the theme for which is Reach Out. Our prayers and donations on Mission Sunday help to support mission projects and allow Catholic communities worldwide to become self-sufficient and progress according to their own needs and traditions.
MISSION SUNDAY COLLECTION: A special collection will be taken up next weekend 17/18 October by the Society for the Propagation of the Faith, in aid of the Church’s mission activities. We ask your generous support.
THANK YOU: Sincere thanks to all who supported the Priests’ October Collection which was taken up at Masses last weekend.
