Thought from Fr. Colm - 22nd December 2024

As we reach the finale of the Christmas season, can I wish you all a very Happy Christmas. There is so much to be thankful for, but also much to be concerned about in a turbulent world. Let’s hope the word ‘Peace’ has a more active voice in 2025. I hope you can join us for one of the Masses over Christmas.


I Am the New Year

I am the New Year. I am an unspoiled page in your book of time.

I am your next chance at the art of living.

I am your opportunity to practice what you have learned about life during the last

twelve months.

All that you sought and didn't find is hidden in me, waiting for you to search it but with

more determination.

All the good that you tried for and didn't achieve is mine to grant when you have fewer

conflicting desires.

All that you dreamed but didn't dare to do, all that you hoped but did not will, all the

faith that you claimed but did not have-these slumber lightly, waiting to be awakened

by the touch of a strong purpose.

I am your opportunity to renew your allegiance to Him who said, "Behold, I make all

things new."
