A Celtic Journey with St. John of the Cross
We would like to share with you two beautiful musical reflections in honour of Our Lady and St John of the Cross recorded by Kerrie O’Connor and friends in our Chapel. We vacated the Chapel one afternoon while they did all the hard work!! The first one is available on youtube and the second will be available for the feast of St John of the Cross on 14th December. We hope you will enjoy. https://youtu.be/R2YGDeZ0haE

Sunday Reflection
14th Sunday in Ordinary Time 2025
Isaiah 66:10-14
Galatians 6: 14-18
Luke 10: 1-12, 17-20
Our liturgies for the past six Sundays have been celebrations of the great events of the early Church along with the celebration of what the Lord has left us a memorial of Himself and then we honoured the two great pillars of the Church, Peter the Rock on which the Church was founded and Paul who brought the Good News of the Kingdom to all of us.
It is now time to for us to consider how all of this touches our lives as we try to live out our calling as disciples. Disciples are those who are called, who hear and who follow. Disciples are faithful to their Master and Teacher and Disciples are sent!
In the Gospel passage immediately preceding today’s Gospel Reading Jesus tells his disciples: ‘The Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head’ (Luke 9:58). Disciples following such a leader would not be encouraged or feel any security! Such is the fate of disciples. Those who follow Jesus are to be people on the move, who think differently, who don’t rely on worldly goods or securities and who don’t expect earthly rewards.
