This kookaburra leading one of us on our walk this morning. All of Creation knows and draws us to the salvation of the Cross.
13 September is the eve of the Feast of the Glorious Cross.
In this Season of Creation, Pope Francis, Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby and Orthodox Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew have issuesd “A Joint Message for the Protection of Creation”.
Two weeks ago, we watched as our neighbour walked out of her house into an ambulance. We would never have imagined she would not walk back through the doors of her home again. We have kept her in our prayers for two weeks. Last night she passed into eternal life.
Today is the Feast of the Birth of our Lady. The earliest document we have of this event was called the Genesis (Birth) of Mary, but today it is called the Protevangelium of James. It is one of the most important documents in the history of the early Church, especially the Eastern Church. It is believed to come from somewhere between 100 and 150 AD, but it (or its oldest parts) may be as early as 70 or 80.
Tonight we ask you to join us in prayer for someone we know who is suffering with COVID and for whom the doctors can do nothing more.
