Points to Ponder

Week of Prayer for Christian Unity and Catholic Schools Week begin today.

John also declared, ‘I saw the Spirit coming down on him from heaven like a dove and resting on him.John’s words in today’s Gospel form a declaration of trust. His words are led from the Spirit: he allowed the Spirit to guide him and this led to greater trust in Jesus.    Whilst we may not be approached by Jesus and be asked to baptise him in the local river, there are many prompts, many signs, through which we can begin to listen the the Holy Spirit. First and foremost are the Sacraments and Scripture. By our own baptism we have been signed by the Holy Spirit, just as Jesus was at the Jordan. And, through the Eucharist, we meet Jesus in a special and intimate way. In Scripture we are reminded of Jesus’s ministry, his birth, work, crucifixion and death, and his resurrection from the dead, and we are invited to live in synergy with this life, to emulate Christ through the gifts of the Spirit.   This invitiation is no less outlandish, no less surprising, than what John experienced. But faith IS an unexpected journey of surprise and, through it, we become the fullest people that we were designed to be.

At the heart of our journey is the Spirit, and his constant invitation to our hearts. We know where to begin. But are we open, as was John, to listening to him in our lives? Are we open to spending the time in prayer?

Catholic Schools Week 2026 

This year, Catholic Schools Week will run from 18 to 24 January with the theme, Normal Lives, Called to Holiness.  Inspired by Pope Francis’ reflection on Blessed Carlo Acutis, the 2026 theme invites pupils, teachers, families, and parishes to explore the call to holiness as something both universal and accessible. Holiness is not for a few, but for all; not reserved for religious professionals or mystics, but for every student, teacher, parent, (and grandparent!) living each day in friendship with Jesus Christ.
