IN THE WORLD

Upcoming Events

Prayer Intentions

    • In light of the Feast of Corpus Christi—the Body and Blood of Christ—let us ask Jesus to help each of us to truly become people committed to centring our lives on Christ through actions and words. Let us open our hearts to Jesus.
    • We pray for all young people struggling in the current economic climate. We ask that the Holy Spirit give them courage and perseverance.
    • We pray that the Spirit opens borders between nations, “breaks down barriers and tears down the walls of indifference and hatred to build a world in which peace reigns”. Pope Leo XIV
    • Pentecost marked the beginning of the Church’s mission to the world. Post Pentecost, the liturgy emphasises the call for Christians to be active participants in spreading the faith and living out the Gospel message in our daily lives.
