Updated weekly (Sunday 17/05/2026):
As we approach the end of the Easter season, the Church in her liturgy begins to look fowrard to what is to happen once Jesus has ascended into heaven. Today we hear Jesus promise his disciples that he will send the spirit of truth to guide them.
We are not alone. We are profoundly and closely connected to each other as a community, and to God, who is always with us. We are not left without support. The Holy Spirit is a comforter and a joy bringer. The Spirit is also our inspiration and guide to go and make meaningful connections with others, especially those on the margins of society, who may feel excluded and lost.
