All parishioners are invited to help in the garden on Monday evenings, 5:00pm. The fruits of your labor will be shared with our community through the Marlborough Food Bank.
Let us remember the incredible gift that is our liturgy. As Pope Francis reminds us in his Apostolic Letter, Desiderio Desideravi,
The Liturgy guarantees for us the possibility of such an encounter. For us a vague memory of the Last Supper would do no good. We need to be present at that Supper, to be able to hear his voice, to eat his Body and to drink his Blood. We need Him. In the Eucharist and in all the sacraments we are guaranteed the possibility of encountering the Lord Jesus and of having the power of his Paschal Mystery reach us. The salvific power of the sacrifice of Jesus, his every word, his every gesture, glance, and feeling reaches us through the celebration of the sacraments. (Desiderio Desideravi, 11)
How blessed we are to live where we can fully join the celebration of the eucharist every Sunday and be remind of Christ’s sacrifice and God’s unconditional love for each and everyone of us.
