Friends in Christ,
I am writing a note on the fourth Sunday in Lent, which is also called Mothering Sunday, for one time during Lent there are some flowers in Church, they are the customs of posies for the mothers, and a piece of simnel cake as sustenance. God wants us to be refreshed during this intense time of penance, fasting and meditation. I have written a word for this sunday on my website, http://www.crossspot.net/ststephenstac and if you have the time, please visit.
I would like you to pray for a friend of mine Fr.Vincent, who is having eye surgery on the 22nd of March. He is a Prior of an Anglican Catholic Monastry in Canada. The Monastry survives on donations, and it is finding it hard to make ends meet. In your charity , can you manage a donation to the Monastry? Please to to their website http://www.crossspot.net/augustinian for further details.
Let's pray for this community of Oxford in rural New Zealand where I live, that the Light of Christ may shine there, that more may be called to love Him and to serve Him. Praying especially for the young people.
Have a really blessed Sunday, wherever you may be on God's earth.
With every good wish in Christ,
