OUR FAITH TEACHES The Word became flesh to make us ‘partakers of the
divine nature.’
Para 460
REFLECTION At the centre of the New Age Movement is
the proclamation that “I am God, and you are too.” Like all
heresies, it asks the right question, but gets the wrong
answer. Can humans be divine? Yes, but only by
participation in the divinity of Christ.
PRAYER Jesus, you have glorified human nature by your
incarnation. Make us one with you in truth.
CHRISTMAS SHOW held in St Aloysius
Hall raised £530. Thanks go to the Drama
Group and all who supported the show.
