Aid to the Church in Need

This weekend we welcome Davide Barbieri, Diocesan Liaison Officer with Aid to the Church in Need (Ireland), to speak on behalf of ACN Ireland at all Masses in the parish and take up a collection during his visit. As a Catholic charity, ACN supports the faithful wherever they are persecuted, oppressed or in need, through information, prayer, and action.

Today, ACN supports almost 6,000 projects around the world focusing on humanitarian assistance, pastoral care, evangelisation, and support for persecuted Christians. As an example, one in every ten student priests in the world is now supported by the generous benefactors of ACN.

 

God our Father, Your power brings us to birth, Your providence guides our lives, and by Your command we return to dust. Lord, those who die still live in Your presence, their lives change but do not end. I pray in hope for my family, relatives and friends, and for all the dead known to You alone. Amen.

Pope Francis

The sanctifying action of the Holy Spirit reaches us primarily through two channels: the Word of God and the Sacraments. And among all the Sacraments, there is one that is quintessentially the Sacrament of the Holy Spirit, and it is on this that I would like to focus today. It is the Sacrament of Confirmation.

Seeing your life through the  Lens of the Gospels 

Today’s gospel brings us right to the heart of what a Christian life involves: love of God and of neighbour. Jesus tells us that having life both now and in the future is the fruit of living in a spirit of love. How have you experienced the power of love given, and received, as a source of life and vitality?   If you were asked what is most important in life, what would your answer be? Recall the experiences and relationships you have had. Which are the ones that you treasure most? What has particularly enriched your life? How would you encourage another person who asked you how s/he could live a full life?   Jesus praises the questioner as one who had answered wisely. Recall some of the wise people you have known, people who in their words and actions impressed you with their capacity to see and treasure what is important in life.
