Word from the Pastor

“Set Free by Christ’s Law”
Sirach 15:15-20; 1Cor.2:6-10; Mt.17-37Dear parish family,
This Sunday’s readings challenge us to choose freely and wisely to observe the laws given by a loving and caring God. He revealed His laws to His Chosen People through Moses and the prophets in the Old Testament, and through His own Son, Jesus, in the New Testament. For the Israelites, the Torah was not a set of laws but the instruction or teaching intended to promote the holiness and wholeness of each believer. It was the revealed will of a caring, loving, compassionate and merciful God, for the people with whom He had made His covenant.
