He has delivered the soul of the needy from the hands of
those who are evil.
--
It is for you that I suer taunts,
that shame covers my face,
that I have become a stranger to my brothers,
an alien to my own mother's sons.
I burn with zeal for your house
and taunts against you fall on me.
This is my prayer to you,
my prayer for your favour.
In your great love, answer me, O God,
with your help that never fails:
Lord, answer, for your love is kind;
in your compassion, turn towards me.
The poor when they see it will be glad
and God-seeking hearts will revive;
for the Lord listens to the needy
and does not spurn his servants in their chains.
Let the heavens and the earth give him praise,
the sea and all its living creatures.

God's gi to us is nothing like our sin against him.
Alleluia, alleluia!
The Spirit of Truth will bear witness to me, says the Lord,
and you also will be my witnesses.
Alleluia!

Do not fear those who can kill the body.
As we approach the end of another nancial year, we
express our sincere gratude to all parishioners who
have supported our parishes nancially over this past
year.
Without your nancial support, we can not connue to
do what we are called by God to do—look aer the
pastoral life and outreach of our parishes which is our
most important ministry.
To do this we must pay the everyday running cost of
electricity, rates, salaries, the increasing insurance cost
and aend to the maintenance of our buildings and
grounds.
Over the next few weeks, we will be asking you to
commit to or re-commit to Planned Giving.
The Planned Giving helps the parish plan for
maintenance and repairs of our beauful buildings and
grounds. New Giving cards are available at the back of
the church or from the Parish Oce.

The Internaonal Eucharisc Congress in Sydney in 2028 (‘Eucharist28’) will be a global gathering of the
Church centred on the Eucharist, the source and summit of our Chrisan lives, culminang in a Papal
Mass with Pope Leo XIV. It will be a fesval of faith, rich with worship, prayer, tesmonies, art, music – a
truly ‘once in a lifeme’ experience, and a transformave moment for our naon.
At the very rst Pentecost, the apostles were transformed as the re of the Holy Spirit was poured out for them,
empowering them to go out to evangelise the world.
“And day by day, aending the temple together and breaking bread in their homes, they partook of food with glad and
generous hearts, praising God.” – Acts of the Apostles 2:46-47
The early Church was Eucharisc. They gathered together in community and shared in the breaking of the bread. It was
through believing in and sharing in Christ’s body and blood that the Holy Spirit set their hearts ablaze, strengthening them
to spread the Good News without fear.
As we move forward from our celebraon of Pentecost last month, our parishes and communies can imitate the early
Church by devong ourselves to the Eucharist and allowing the Holy Spirit to work within us – in our ministries, our youth
groups, and our personal prayer.
This naonal journey to Eucharist28 is an invitaon for all of us to be set on re by the Holy Spirit and share in the breaking
of the bread. The journey begins now, in our own hearts, in our own parishes.

Let us connue on our path of reecon on the Church as she is
presented to us in the Conciliar Constuon Lumen genum (LG).
Today we will look at the fourth chapter, which deals with the laity.
Let us all remember what Pope Francis liked to repeat: “Lay people
are, put simply, the vast majority of the people of God. The minority –
ordained ministers – are at their service” (Apostolic
Exhortaon Evangelii gaudium, 102). This secon of the Document
seeks to explain, in posive terms, the nature and mission of the laity,
aer centuries in which they had been dened simply as those who
are not part of the clergy or the consecrated life. For this reason, I
would like to revisit with you a very beauful passage that speaks to
the greatness of the Chrisan condion: “Therefore, the chosen
People of God is one: ‘one Lord, one faith, one bapsm’ (Eph 4:5);
sharing a common dignity as members from their regeneraon in
Christ, having the same lial grace and the same vocaon to
perfecon; possessing in common one salvaon, one hope and one
undivided charity” (LG, 32).
From Pope Leo XIV General Audience address April 2026
