This weekend we welcome to our Parish Sr Ann Ugoh of the Daughters of Divine Love who will speak at the Masses about the Missionary work of the Church especially in Africa.
Saint Mark wrote his gospel primarily for converts from paganism, and in various passages explains to his readers the meaning of certain Jewish customs.
We come to that section in the reading of chapter six of St John’s Gospel where the Jews will not accept that Jesus can give us Himself as food for eternal life
We continue with our reading, and refections, on the sixth chapter of St John’s Gospel at Mass. Jesus recalls the moment when the Chosen People lost patiences with Moses during their forty-year sojourn through the wilderness.
The Gospel of the Mass this Sunday shows the solicitude of Jesus for his disciples, tired as they are after their apostolic works in the neighbouring towns and village.
