Reflection by Christel Casse (Lay Pastoral Assistant) The Gate That Leads to Life Fourth Sunday of Easter  

In a world full of voices competing for our attention, Jesus reminds us that not every voice is trustworthy. He calls himself the gate, not a barrier, but an opening to something better. The sheep follow the shepherd because they know his voice, and that knowing comes from staying close to him in prayer and in Scripture.

ADORATION OF THE BLESSED SACRAMENT: Saturdays from 11.30am to 12 Noon.

SACRAMENT OF RECONCILIATION is available after weekday Mass.
