Re-visiting

Re-visiting

Remembering and re-visting

This photo was taken back in November at our Parish Rememrance Service.  There we rememered in prayer and by name those from our parish who had died in the previous twelve months.  Sadly other names of our parishiones have been added since then.  It’s a very important night in the life of a parish – a night of remembrance, respect and love re-visited.

Earlier today I had a Month’s Mind Mass for a lady who died in the parish in January.  It was wonderful to see how many people came to pray for her again and to support her family.

Sometimes I wonder about the ongoing care and support we (I) give to the bereaved.  Maybe this Lenten season gives us the opportunity to visit where visitation is possible or at least call, send a text or drop a line to those who have lost loved ones in the past year.  I’m convinced it could make a significant difference.

Is there anyone you could “reach out” to these Lenten days?
