Purifying Our Inner Temple
Mary O. Vallely reflects on her reecent experience of a christening in Scotland, where she was saddened by the lack of real welcome for the newly baptised babies and their parents. She appeals to priests to make real, warm, loving connections with their congregations, adding that a smile — or a nod of warmth, a handshake with eye-to-eye contact, a pat on the back or a hug — are all marks of Christ.
Belief in the Hereafter

As we move into the darker times of the year, the readings at Mass remind us more and more of the the end of time, and the glory awaiting believers. We trust that God stays with us always.

Firmly Planted
In our journey through life we walk the path Jesus walked, so it is hard for us to escape suffering, no more than he could. We remember his suffering and death, knowing that it brought him glory and that it will do the same for us.
