Dear friends,

There are signs to indicate that spring is on the way! The hope of being warm again, being able to leave off all those extra layers of clothes, is something to look forward to.
As I write this we are halfway through our Lenten season, looking forward to the celebration of Easter. But first, we need to be spiritually ready to encounter all that transpires before that glorious Easter morn.
There is no point, [as I often say] in celebrating Easter if we are not prepared to encounter Christ Himself during Lent and then in Passiontide. Christianity cannot be a ‘Pick & Mix’ religion. It is all or nothing! We cannot change what we don’t like, leave out the bits which we find uncomfortable, it is just not possible.
We need to think of the sacrifice that God has made on our behalf. He gave is only Son for us on the cross and by His death we are able to attain eternal life.
Please use these next few weeks to get a right mind with God. Search the Scriptures and follow the Way of the Cross, then we are able to understand Gods plan for us as believers in His Son. Our eternal life depends on the depth of the commitment we as individuals are willing to make. Are we Sunday Christians? Or are we twenty –four seven Christians? The choice is yours to make, the right choice is everlasting!
May God bless you,

Yours in Christ Jesus,

Fr. Harry.
