REFLECTION SOCIAL JUSTICE SUNDAY Sometimes we perform actions automatically – particularly pertaining to our faith practice. Maybe we should ask ourselves Why? At this time? In this place? Outward show? Jesus does not want lip service, but our hearts - not obedience to human regulations, but to live the commandment of love, which is giving justice to the needs of others. Jesus said we would be called to account for feeding the hungry, visiting the sick, clothing the naked, taking in the homeless. When we look at what is happening in Afghanistan, we see little social justice for their future. By rescuing them we are fulfilling what Jesus has asked us to do. As we continue our journey of faith, may we be open to listening with our hearts as to whether we are honouring God with lip-service or do our hearts lead us into the way of Jesus. Let us pray for those denied justice, for refugees, for those without hope. There is a silent rally taking place across the world – each day, one minutes silence at Noon, (or any other time) to listen to God, for an end to this pandemic and for those in need. A beautiful story of hope is THE FOUR CANDLES found on Google or Internet.

In the Encyclical Fratelli Tutti, I expressed a concern and a hope that remain uppermost in my thoughts: “Once this health crisis passes, our worst response would be to plunge even more deeply into feverish consumerism and new forms of egotistic self-preservation. God willing, after all this, we will think no longer in terms of ‘them’ and ‘those’, but only ‘us’” (No. 35). For this reason, I have wished to devote the Message for this year’s World Day of Migrants and Refugees to the theme, Towards An Ever Wider “We”, in order to indicate a clear horizon for our common journey in this world. Source: https://migrants-refugees.va/resource-center/world-day-of-migrants-refugees-2021/ St BERNARD’S PRIMARY SCHOOL St Bernard's Primary School is pleased to announce the commencement of a six classroom building. It is anticipated that the building will be completed early in 2022. See plans below.
