KNOW YOUR FAITH: Lent is a continual call to conversion. That means that we want to deepen our faith and alter our lives if we wish to follow Christ on his journey to Jerusalem and Easter Sunday. God’s word is one of our surest ways to following our divine Lord more closely and so we will reflect on and pray about the Word of God for each Sunday of Lent at our gatherings. Talks continue on Tuesday 3rd March and each Tuesday of Lent at 8pm in St. Joseph’s Chapel (in the Church) and will last for one hour. Talks will be based on the readings of the Sundays of Lent. - Fr. Pat.

Phone 094 9382890 ANOTHER ANGLE The people of Sebeya in Ethopia once lived in a region where mountain tops were green and covered in vegetation. Today, the people of Sebeya are confused as to why their rains have stopped; why a land once full of vegetation is now dry. Having lived a simple life and played no part in causing their weather systems to change, these people are now experiencing the effects of climate change, the causes of which lie with the lifestyles of rich nations thousands of miles away. This is a great injustice. When we read today’s Gospel we can see Peter, who is desperate to stay on the mountain in that blissful moment with Jesus. But Jesus’ way is different to what Peter may have had in mind at the time. Jesus’ way involves coming down from the mountain and walking a very different path. We hear the call to act on climate injustice everywhere but now we need to really listen and to take urgent action. This involves making changes to our lifestyles and campaigning governments who are slow to act. We start with ourselves, with small acts in the hope that the Kings and Presidents of the world will follow. INTERCOM PARISH NEWSLETTER .indd 2 26/02/2015 15:29:50
