“When one has a grateful heart, life is so beautiful.”

The 28th Sunday in Ordinary Time Year C reminds us to notice God’s blessings. It calls us to give thanks for what He has done. The readings show healing, mercy, and the gift of faith.  They help us see that faith grows stronger when we trust God and give Him praise.  Today’s Gospel presents a God who loves us, freely pours out His blessings upon us and desires only our love in return, at least in the form of expressed gratitude for all of them.  When we do not even acknowledge His love in this small way, our callous ingratitude cause Him pain.

Fr. Peter

Mass Count (No. 4) should be taken this weekend.

World Mission Day is next Sunday, 19th October.

The Rosary is said before Sunday Mass during the month of October, and at the Sacred Heart, before the weekday Masses on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

HARVEST THANKSGIVING will be celebrated next Sunday, 19th October, at the Sacred Heart. Parishioners are invited to bring their harvest items, if possible, before Mass starts, up to the altar where they will be displayed. NO PLASTIC BAGS please, so that we can adorn the church with God’s bounty – and not that of local supermarkets!! Perishable items will be sold after Mass for CAFOD; store cupboard items will go to the Food Bank.
