October month of our Lady
We are invited to say the Rosary each day or have a little altar to Our Lady.
Mission Sunday 24th October – is the Pope’s annual appeal to support overseas missionaries.
This year’s theme is “We cannot remain silent”. It is a challenge to stand up and speak out on behalf of those whose voices are too small to be heard. Missionaries face extraordinary pressure because of the unrelenting pandemic with low levels of vaccination and the unrelenting poverty. Everyone is invited to please make a small contribution which will help enormously.
Month of Mission Prayer
God our Father, We pray for those who are suffering, for those who are grieving, for those who are anxious, and for those who are working tirelessly to care for the sick.
God our Father, Your Son Jesus Christ came into our world to heal us from division and to bring us life in abundance.
By the power of the Holy Spirit, help us to strive together as one family of many nations to help those in greatest need during this crisis.
We ask this in the name of Jesus, our Risen Lord. Amen

Falling Leaves
One, then another and another
On the skim down from above,
Bedding the forest table before me
With comforting crunches and crackles.
This gigantic death scene of leaves
Does not smell of sorrow or sadness,
Rather, the earth is coloured with joy
And the leaves make music in the wind.
