The Visiting Image of Our Holy Mother- first mass since the home-coming


Quite a crowd...quite a crowd...it was at OLL this evening...Over the past few days since the glass panel was moved to OLL, streams of visitors and devotees had been pouring into our lovely  church, to pray. This evening, many who had came to view the Phenomenon and pray  also  stayed back for mass..with .many having to sit outside the church building..

And what a beautiful  rounded homily, it was this evening- a wealth of information –and refocusing prominence back  to the Lord. I’m sure not many know that facing east is of our Christian faith.., I didn’t. But really,...it is  symbolic of the beginning...the light coming into the world..giving existence - life energy ..

The altar is still WIP, but  better a thing of beauty to be marvelled  rather than a rush job ..

Reflecting on the prominence of the cross ...that is our Christian way of life...the word “conceal’ is totally irrelevant. The Rev.  has a point there...the cross expands into the Christian horizon... our horizon...It is the light that shows us the way. Putting prominence on the cross of Jesus is bringing back our focus on the essence of our faith-the Lord Jesus who came and made it possible for us to call God Father.

People of God’s pastures...are we not all called to revered and honour our God??

YOU SHALL LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART, AND WITH ALL YOUR SOUL, AND WITH ALL YOUR MIND"
