Sixth Sunday of Easter (B)
Sunday 10th May 2015
Response to the Psalm: The Lord has shown his salvation to the nations.
Communion Antiphon : If you love me keep my commandments, says the Lord,
and I will ask the Father and He will send you another
Paraclete, to abide with you for ever, alleluia.
Our Lady’s Message 2nd May 2015
“Dear children, open your hearts and try to feel how much I love you and how much I
desire for you to love my Son. I desire for you to come to know Him all the better, because it is impossible to know Him and not to love Him - because He is love. I, my
children, know you. I know your pain and suffering because I lived through them. I
laugh with you in your joy and I cry with you in your pain. I will never leave you. I will
always speak to you with motherly tenderness. And I, as a mother, need your open
hearts to spread the love of my Son with wisdom and simplicity. I need you to be open
and sensitive to the good and mercy. I need you to be united with my Son, because I
desire for you to be happy and to help me to bring happiness to all of my children. My
apostles, I need you to show everyone the truth of God, so that my heart, which suffered and today suffers so much pain, can win in love. Pray for the holiness of your
shepherds, so that in the name of my Son they could work miracles, because holiness
works miracles. Thank you.”

MARRIAGE MATTERS
’Strive for Unity’
Since even before we married, we have worked to bring about unity in our love relationship. Today we are reminded that by loving one another; ‘God will live in us and
His Love will be complete in us. Let us take a moment to hold hands, look at each
other and say “you are my beloved ‘till the end of time”.
From Two in one flesh (see www.twoinoneflesh.org.uk)
Father Jim writes…
Today we are very aware that God has no favourites. Our young people are
told to have wonder and awe in God’s Presence. His Presence is both
wonderful and awesome. God’s salvation was a gift to all who accepted it.
What does it mean to Jesus to have a friend like you? Now think what does it
mean for you to have a friend like Jesus?
