Words from Canon Niall
Twenty-Ninth Sunday in Ordinary Time
Matthew 22:15-21 invites us to strike a harmonious balance between our earthly obligations and our spiritual commitments. It reminds us that while we are citizens of the world, our ultimate citizenship is in the Kingdom of God. Our faith should not be confined to the walls of a church but should permeate every aspect of our lives, transforming us into living testimonies of God’s love and truth in the world.
In a world often characterised by conflicting allegiances and values, this passage offers clarity and guidance. It teaches us that true discipleship entails recognizing the rightful claims of both Caesar and God and living a life that honors both realms, striving to make our earthly actions resonate with our heavenly calling.
Have a blessed week.
Welcome to our new priest Father Andrei ~ please keep him in your prayers.

Thresholds of Hope : the Vicariate for Adult Formation - another wonderful tool when proclaiming the good news of God's grace to all. St John Henry Newman believed that the lay faithful were to take a full part in the life of the Church, to be confident in expressing their Catholic Faith and willing to share its beauty with others. Hope you find this resource useful; more here https://thresholdsofhope.co.uk/
