We believe that the Father is drawing us to himself through every moment of our life and in every fibre of our being. The mistake that so many of us make is that in our prayer we move the action

from the heart to the head, trying to work out our problems and solve them. When we do this, we lose contact with Jesus because we become beset by intellectual questions. Most of life’s questions don’t start in the head; they start in the heart and that’s the only place to deal with them. The level where our head and our heart meet, is where the Spirit is at work. Here, we touch our truth, the level of our integrity. When the head and the heart and the Spirit are all in line, we experience an ease, a rightness in what we are doing. On the other hand, if either the head or the heart are our of line or not in line with the Spirit, we experience a dis-ease. We become fragmented. P. O’Sullivan sj

Our Parish & Deanery will conduct the

Annual PROPAGATION OF THE FAITH

Appeal THIS WEEKEND, 19/20 July.

The parable of the mustard seed offers a fitting metaphor for the

Catholic Mission appeal weekend. For just as Jesus’ reflection

points to the way the ‘smallest of all the seeds’ offers shelter and

protection for flocks of birds, so too even the smallest of dona-

tions helps the Church shelter, protect, comfort and heal those in

need. The third parable – about the woman mixing yeast into the

flour - also resonates because in many of the 160 countries where

Catholic Mission works, missionaries are the yeast, helping ‘raise’

programs, services and ministries, for children, communities and

church leaders. Your contribution this weekend will benefit peo-

ple in places like Rwanda – on their behalf, thank you for your

generosity. ~ David McGovern, Director

OUR MISSION PRAYER

We, the St Ignatius community, are called to live the good news. We pray that we become the people that Jesus Christ called us to be. We pray that we know the Father, by the power of the Holy Spirit

through knowing Jesus in prayer, scripture and liturgy. We pray that we give hope to others by a practical, personal kindness, affirming each person's dignity, worth and destiny in Christ. May we live out this mission of our Christian vocation in the spirit of St. Ignatius.

“Everyone should be able to experience the joy of

being loved by God, the joy of salvation.

It is a gift that one cannot keep to oneself, but is to be

shared. The proclamation of the Gospel is part of being

Disciples of Christ and it is a constant commitment

that animates the whole life of the Church.”

~ Pope Francis
