REFLECTION What stands out strongly for me in today’s Gospel, is the line that says
‘Jesus had compassion on the people who were following him and his apostles. He took pity on them: on their state of being like lost sheep, shepherd less.’ He put aside all His tiredness and tended to them, reaching out to them, fulfilling the spiritual need in them, to fill their
hearts with His teachings.
We are in exactly the same position two thousand odd years later: we are
floundering like a lost flock in a world full of so many varied and
controversial beliefs and opinions and we don’t quite know what to think
of it all. I know I am constantly in need of spiritual guidance nowadays.
I think perhaps this is a relevant message for me, for us, to put our faith in Jesus the leader of
our flock and to turn to Him, to fill our hearts with His teachings, to listen to His word and answer
Him when He calls. We will not be lost then, but will be safe and sound. Cynthia White (PLT)

FIRST EUCHARIST: Preparation will commence Third Term for the this sacrament as a communal effort - family, parish, school. Parents have the greatest influence over their children and are the first and most important educators in the ways of faith. Schools have an important role to play in supporting parents in the faith education of their children. The resources we will be using for this programme is called “Becoming Catholic-Eucharist”. It is a colourful and practical workbook that is useful for both children & parents. Therefore, the core idea of this would be the conversation between parents and children. I would encourage parents to spend this precious moment especially during the course of their preparation process. Details will follow in the next couple of weeks. If any of your children wish to receive this Sacrament please call the Church office (9557 1165) or come to our meeting on Wednesday, 22nd July at 6.45pm. Thank you Matilde.

Enquiries: 9557 1165

GOSPEL: Mark 6: 30-34
The apostles rejoined Jesus and told him all they had done and
taught. Then he said to them, ‘You must come away to some lonely
place all by yourselves and rest for a while’; for there were so many
coming and going that the apostles had no time even to eat. So they
went off in a boat to a lonely place where they could be by
themselves. But people saw them going, and many could guess where;
and from every town they all hurried to the place on foot and
reached it before them. So as he stepped ashore he saw a large
crowd; and he took pity on them because they were like sheep
without a shepherd, and he set himself to teach them at some
length.
