Today is a very solemn and sacred day



We hold today all our struggles, difficulties and challenges and we do so with Jesus who particularly understands what we are going through today

Thought For Good Friday

‘The underlying narrative that once gave us meaning and hope, can lie before us with little more power and energy than that of a spent battery.’ ~ Fr. Alan Hilliard

We are living in incredibly difficult and challenging times during this coronavirus pandemic. All that is happening does have an impact on us. No person can say they are untouched by this.
We need to mind each other and we need to mind ourselves. It is important that we reach out and talk to someone. It is important that we don’t bottle everything up. Maybe we feel like the rundown battery. What gave us meaning and hope before may now have dried up. We may feel empty, alone, afraid, unsure, worried and even frightened.


This is our starting point as we continue our journey through Holy Week and especially today Good Friday. Our journey through Good Friday touches in on every human experience. It will touch in on everything we are experiencing through this crisis. I firmly believe that these few days gives us a strong platform, to begin to recharge the battery again, to not allow ourselves to get swamped in the midst of so much negativity, to put the spotlight on good news and hope.

This is the message of Holy Week and especially the message of Easter. We journey together during this special week and we pray for each other during these difficult times.
