Touch our hearts and convert us to yourself. · Where sin has divided and scattered, may your love make one again; where sin has brought weakness, may your power heal and strengthen; where sin has brought death, may your Spirit raise to new life. · Give us a new heart to love you, so that our lives may reflect the image of your Son. · May the world see the glory of Christ revealed in your church, and come to know that he is the one whom you have sent, Jesus Christ, your Son, our Lord. NOW WE ARE IN THE WEEK OF:
-------------------------------------------------------------------- PREVIOUS SEASONS IN THE LITURGICAL YEAR: The Holy Week. It is a week like no other. It’s the climax of the year for Christians. In this great week we follow Jesus through the extraordinary events of the last week of his earthly life. The apparent triumph of Palm Sunday with the crowds hailing Jesus as the Messiah comes to Jerusalem. Holy Thursday celebrates the new act of worship, sacrifice and fellowship for his new people. In the garden of Getshemane we see the arrest, trial and condemnation of the Son of God. On Good Friday he is ‘lifted up’ to draw all humanity to himself. Then the burial in Joseph of Arimathea’s grave. It will be followed by the amazement of Easter as the disciples are forced to realise that Jesus is no longer dead. He is living and calling them to be his messengers to the unbelieving world.Let us make sure that we are renewed and deepened in that faith in this Holy Week. Turn off the telly! Join fellow Christians worldwide in the wonderful services which record and celebrate the Christ who loves and saves us! Laetare Sunday is the fourth Sunday in the season of Lent. Traditionally, this Sunday has been a day of celebration within the austere period of Lent. This Sunday gets its name from the first few words of the traditional Latin entrance verse for the Mass of the day. "Laetare Jerusalem", Rejoice Jerusalem. The meaning of Lent. This week, on Wednesday the Lenten season begins. The colour of Lent is violet (purple), those of penitence and mourning. In Lent, we remember that through our baptism we died to sin and were raised to a new life in Christ. This penitential season transports us back to the moment of the fundamental break in our relationship with our Creator and therefore to the possibility of a fundamental healing in that relationship. We prepare for the celebration of Easter, the three sacred days of Good Friday, Holy Saturday, and Easter Day, the days of our Lord’s passion and resurrection. Ordinary Time. The time between Epiphany and Ash Wednesday and between the Day of Pentecost and the beginning of Advent are the two “green seasons”, so called from their liturgical colours. This long trek of “Ordinary Time”, the thirty-four weeks which extend from now till the end of November and the start of Advent. This time is calling us to be people of hope, particularly hope in the next generation. The colour of hope and growth is green. Indeed, from now on we concentrate on the work which affects our future.
