“When the Spirit of truth comes, He will lead you to the complete truth.” John 16: 12-15

This month is a busy one in the church calendar! Ascension Day and Pentecost Sunday take us to the end of Eastertide; then the church celebrates Trinity Sunday; and lastly the Feast of Corpus Christi, where we celebrate Jesus’ gift of His body and blood to us on the cross and through the Eucharist.

A common theme across these celebrations is that of peace:

Before Jesus ascended to heaven, He spent 40 days with His disciples on earth, giving them proof of Jesus’ resurrection and personal peace in their faith.
At Pentecost, the Holy Spirit brought peace and unity by giving the apostles the ability to speak different languages, enabling communication with all.
Trinity Sunday celebrates the loving, peaceful community of the Trinity. This week is also Refugee Week, which calls for the global spread of peace.
Finally, at Corpus Christi we celebrate Jesus’ sacrifice, as a result of which peace is restored between man and God!

According to the church calendar, the season of Eastertide lasts for 50 days – 10 days longer than Lent! During the May assemblies and collective worship in school, children have celebrated Jesus’ miraculous resurrection, the cornerstone of our faith. They have marvelled with Mary Magdalene at the empty tomb; they have been detectives seeking evidence for Jesus’ resurrection through the story of Doubting Thomas; they have learned that, like in nature, sometimes our hearts can be cold and wintry, but that because of Jesus’ death and resurrection we are offered new life and new direction.

It was lovely to see so many of our families at 9.30am Mass on Sunday. It was a beautiful service and the children were a credit to their families, school and parish. Many thanks to everyone from home, school and the parish for all the prayers, preparation and participation!
