This weekend the Church throughout the world will celebrate the Sunday of the Word of God

Sunday of the Word of God "a light for my path and a lamp for my steps"

Pope Francis encourages parishes throughout the world to “mark this Sunday with special solemnity” that focuses on the special place that the Word of God has in the life of the Church and our life as Christians. In the words of Psalm 119, we believe that the Word of God that is handed down to us in the Bible “is a light for my path and a lamp for my steps.”

To mark the “Sunday of the word of God” here in the Parish there will be a Procession to the altar at the beginning of Mass and enthroned on the Ambo from where the word is proclaimed and reflected upon.
