The Feast of Pentecost
“Once more the day of Pentecost has come”
With it is the awareness that actions speak louder than words, praying in tongues is a real gift of the spirit and has great benefits. Expectation, wanting to act in the light of the spirit are steps to revive and strengthen faith. Communication, sharing our hope and expectations, a most important step in the right direction. This Sunday we will share our names at St Wilfrid’s. We have done this previously, and will bear fruit in our parish. We will continue to develop and grow our plans for the future.
On Wednesday at 6pm we will have a parish council meeting, that will be of benefit for our future. There are good ideas with important plans to structure, support and bring to fruition suggestions that are being made. In time it will form a fruitful coherent strategy. This evening I will be attending an overnight stay, and will be involved with Bishop Richard and the plans that are being formed for the Diocese. So this is a time of importance for a real alive active parish community to develop and grow. Some have already engaged; preparation for our liturgies, children’s liturgy, social activities and our parish sponsored walk are preparing the way for an active living and sharing of faith. Streaming will come to play an important part in this, as with our website, the way of things for the future.
