Bunclody ICA - New members needed

It is 70 years since ICA was started in Bunclody. The guild has always been very active in the parish for all those years. We want to keep that tradition alive. But, due in no small way to Covid 19 and the demographic ageing of our members, we are desperately looking for new members to join our guild. We meet once a month and have a guest speaker. Sometimes have various crafts, etc at our meeting. We also meet once a month for coffee and chat in local restaurant. Sadly, if we do not get new members, we may have to close the guild. If you have 2 hours to spare, once a month, and to keep the guild open, which was kept going by so many wonderful women in the past.

Please phone 087 2805426 or 086 8135587

THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK 

In this Sunday’s Gospel Jesus tells a wonderful parable which creates a wonderful contrast between those who are proud and have a very dominant ego and those who are humble and have a good sense of how they are in reality before God. The first character was a Pharisee. The Pharisees were known as the "Separated Ones" who stood up to the attempts of the Greeks to introduce Greek culture into the Jewish world. The Pharisees would have none of it. They insisted on people adhering to the old law and created numerous mini regulations to ensure that nobody would break the ten commandments. Their whole life was centred around the law. They took great pride in obeying every detail of the law including all of their mini regulations. The man in today’s Gospel had an especially strong ego. He believed that he was better than the rest of mankind. He wasn’t grasping, unjust or adulterous like the rest. He fasted twice in the week and payed his taxes or tithes to the temple. He was far superior to the tax collector who also came to the temple to pray.

The tax collector provides a great contrast. His head was faced towards the ground. He humbly beat his breast and said, "God, be merciful to me a sinner." There were no dramatics, no drawing attention. He just acknowledged who he was before God. We are told that he went home at rights with God. He pleased God. The Pharisee did not. Jesus draws a wonderful conclusion from the story. "For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but the man who humbles himself will be exalted."


THE HOOK OF FAITH THIS WEEK

‘You shall be my witnesses’ is the theme of this ‘Mission Sunday’ when the whole Church unites to serve the poor in developing countries and bring them Good News. We have Pope Francis’ message for this important day, a newsletter insert and a homily. ‘The Letter: A Message for our Earth’ is a new feature film on ‘Laudato Si’ and the effects of climate change. It is now available to view through a YouTube link. We have an article on the cohesiveness of the Catholic faith and another on the spirituality of synodality. Finally, more light and inspiration from the pen of Lorcan Brennan. Check out these and other resources available at www.thehookoffaith.com


PARISH MISSION STATEMENT

  • The Parish of Bunclody/Kilmyshall shall be a community:
  • Of renewed faith and commitment to Christ expressed in prayer and genuine Eucharistic worship where all participate fully.
  • With deep respect for and interest in each and every person.
