Dear Beloved Parishioners and Friends,
​
As we enter the month of May, the Church dedicates this special time to honouring the Blessed Virgin Mary, the Mother of our Lord Jesus Christ and the mother of the Church. Mary’s life is a shining example of faith, humility and devotion to God’s will. Throughout her life, she trusted completely in the Lord and submitted herself wholeheartedly to His plan of salvation.
​
During this Marian month, I invite all of us to pay tribute to Mama Mary, our Heavenly Mother. Let us turn to her with grateful hearts, seeking her maternal intercession and taking inspiration from her virtues. As the Mother of the Church, Mama Mary is a powerful advocate who ceaselessly prays for her children. By imitating her openness to God’s grace and her compassionate love, we can grow deeper in our own spiritual lives.
​
I encourage everyone to find ways to honour Mary this month, such as praying the Rosary more frequently, attending Holy Mass/ Marian devotions, or reflecting on the mysteries of her life. May our veneration of the Blessed Virgin deepen our love for Jesus Christ, and strengthen our commitment to living as FAITHFUL DISCIPLES. Through Mary’s powerful intercession, may we receive the graces and blessings we need to grow in happiness, holiness and peace.
​
May our Blessed Mother watch over our parish community, and all our loved ones. Let us entrust ourselves to her maternal care, and love, confident that she will lead us ever closer to her Divine Son. Through Mary, our Blessed Mother – we succeed!
​
God is Good, all the time!!
LOVE, Fr. Chrys.
