Reflection
from the desk of Fr. Terry
The
Idea of the Shepherd is very, very long and deep in history of salvation. And
so the idea of the shepherd leading the sheep, was a very responsible task and
a very responsible job. Jesus said to the people" I am the good shepherd.
I know mine and they know me. They hear my voice and they follow me." Jesus, the good shepherd walks in great
silence through your life, every morning, all day, day after day, month, year
after year. But you have to listen and hear and open your heart to the wonder
of the good shepherd's silence caring for you, worrying about you, guiding you
through all kinds of situations and yet you know that he will never leave you,
he will always be there and his joy his to be the center of the silence in our
own living.
Please
Pray…..
Please
pray for all the children of our parish who are receiving their First Holy
Communion and for our young people who will be receiving the Sacrament of
Confirmation. May the Lord Jesus always watch over them and guide them.
