Borders has 27,000 medical personnel in 60

The medical science they use comes from the Western industrialized
countries. But no one supposes that there is something exclusivist or
arrogant or intolerant about Doctors Without Borders for bringing this
medical care from the West to the poor and sick in third-world
countries. On the contrary, in 1999 Doctors Without Borders won the
Nobel Peace Prize for its work with the world’s needy.
There is an objective truth about what will heal people, and the fact
that modern medicine comes from the industrialized West doesn’t
alter this truth. Western medicine is prized around the world because
it has a power to heal that nothing else does.
What Peter says about Christ in the First Reading is a little like this.
There is a sickness of the spirit as well as of the body, and it can
All Hallows’ Parish School lead to death too, a death of the spirit rather than the body. There is
healing for this spiritual sickness. But, Peter says, it comes only from

That is a lesson that the First Reading teaches. To some people, this
lesson is worrisome, or worth rejecting. They think it is disrespectful
to other cultures and religions.
But notice what Christ adds to this lesson in the Gospel. He has
more than one fold of sheep, he says. In their varying countries,
Sacramental Life
cultures, and ethnicities, all those who hear his voice and are glad of
Eucharist:
it form the different folds of sheep for whom Christ is the good
Saturday - 9.00am & 5.30pm Vigil Shepherd. All these differing folds together make up the one truly
Sunday - 8.30am
world-wide flock of the Lord.
Sunday - 10am Children’s Liturgy
Sunday - 6.00pm Youth Mass
Monday - 9.00am
Tues - Wed - 8.00am
Thurs - Fri - 9.00am
Lauds (morning prayer) is prayed 20
minutes before morning mass daily.
All Welcome.
And so there is one objective truth about what heals, whether the
healing is medical or spiritual; and there is only one source for this
healing. But, unlike modern medicine, the healing of Christ is not
another monopoly of the Western industrialized nations. Whatever
his social or ethnic group, whatever the way in which Christ’s voice
comes to him and moves him, each person whose heart is stirred by
the voice of the Lord is included in Christ’s one flock.

Jesus Christ. It means leaving, like Abraham, our native
place and going forward with trust, knowing that God will

show us the way to a new land. This “going forward” is not
to be viewed as a sign of contempt for one’s life, one’s
feelings, one’s own humanity. On the contrary, those who
set out to follow Christ find life in abundance by putting
themselves completely at the service of God and his
kingdom. Jesus says: “Everyone who has left home or
brothers or sisters or father or mother or children or lands,
for my name’s sake, will receive a hundredfold, and inherit
eternal life” (Mt 19:29). All of this is profoundly rooted in
love. The Christian vocation is first and foremost a call to
love, a love which attracts us and draws us out of
ourselves, “decentring” us and triggering “an ongoing
exodus out of the closed inward-looking self towards its
liberation through self-giving, and thus towards authentic
self-discovery and indeed the discovery of God”
“To hear and answer the Lord’s call is not a private and
completely personal matter fraught with momentary
emotion. Rather, it is a specific, real and total commitment
which embraces the whole of our existence and sets it at
the service of the growth of God’s Kingdom on earth. The
Christian vocation, rooted in the contemplation of the
Father’s heart, thus inspires us to solidarity in bringing
liberation to our brothers and sisters, especially the poorest.
A disciple of Jesus has a heart open to his unlimited horizons, and friendship with the Lord never means flight from
this life or from the world. On the contrary, it involves a
profound interplay between communion and mission
“Dear young friends, never be afraid to go out from yourselves and begin the journey! The Gospel is the message
which brings freedom to our lives; it transforms them and
makes them all the more beautiful. How wonderful it is to
be surprised by God’s call, to embrace his word, and to
walk in the footsteps of Jesus, in adoration of the divine
mystery and in generous service to our neighbours! Your
life will become richer and more joyful each day!”
