July 22 Monday (St. Mary Magdalene): Jn 20: 11-18: St.
Mary Magdalene: 11 But Mary stood weeping outside the tomb, and as
she wept she stooped to look into the tomb; 12 and she saw two angels in white,
sitting where the body of Jesus had lain, one at the head and one at the feet.
13 They said to her, “Woman, why are you weeping?” She said to them, “Because
they have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they have laid him.”
14 Saying this, she turned round and saw Jesus standing, but she did not know
that it was Jesus. 15 Jesus said to her, “Woman, why are you weeping? Whom do
you seek?”

July 15-20: Weekday Reflections
July 15 Monday (St. Bonaventure, Bishop, Doctor of the
Church): Mt 10:34–11:1: 34 “Do not think that I have come to bring
peace on earth; I have not come to bring peace, but a sword. 35 For I have come
to set a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a
daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law; 36 and a man’s foes will be those of
his own household. 37 ..11:
Sacred Heart of Jesus
Introduction by the Celebrant
The heart is the
center of a person, the place from which he/she makes the choices which will
affect the world within them and around them. Devotion to the Heart of Jesus
reminds us that it is in His Sacred Humanity that we find the pattern for
becoming fully human ourselves. In His Incarnation, saving life, death and
Resurrection, we receive both the pattern - and the means - to become more like
Him. The Feast of the Sacred Heart reminds us of our mission in a Culture
which has forgotten God. Let us spend the month of June in Prayer to the Sacred
Heart of Jesus, lifting up our Nation, indeed the whole world, to the One in
whom we place all of our trust. He will not disappoint; His Heart still beats
with Mercy and Love for the world. (Deacon

The word “eat” is a popular word and for us it is a favourite word. Because it forms our favourite question: “Where to eat?”. And it also forms our next favourite question: “What to eat?” Not that there is nothing to eat. Rather there is too much to choose from; we are really spoilt for choice.

June 24-29: 12th week: Weekday Reflections
June 24: Monday (Nativity of St. John the
Baptist): Luke 1: 57-66, 80: 57 Now the time came for
Elizabeth to be delivered, and she gave birth to a son. 58 And her neighbors
and kinsfolk heard that the Lord had shown great mercy to her, and they
rejoiced with her. 59 And on the eighth day they came to circumcise the child;
and they would have named him Zechariah after his father, 60 but his mother
said, “Not so; he shall be called John.” 61 And they said to her, “None of your
kindred is called by this name.” 62 And they made signs to his father,
inquiring what he would have him called. 63 And he asked for a writing tablet,
and wrote, “His name is John.” And they all marveled. 64 And immediately his
mouth was opened and his tongue loosed, and he spoke, blessing God. 65 And fear
came on all their neighbors. And all these things were talked about through all
the hill country of Judea; 66 and all who heard them laid them up in their
hearts, saying, “What then will this child be?” For the hand of the Lord was
with him.
