Rediscovering the Sacramental 

"Absence makes the heart grow fonder." If ever we were reminded of that old saying, it has been during the pandemic. We have been kept from many of the people who are important to us, as well as familiar routines and practices, as we have tried to stay safe. 

This has certainly affected our parish life. Not being able to celebrate Mass in person is unheard of. Now we can gather again, but limitations remain. To help us understand out experiences and appreciate our life as a faith community anew, enjoy this article from Alice Camille, who helps put what we have been through into beautiful perspective.

The Gospel reading for last Sunday, the 25th Sunday in Ordinary Time, told the story of Jesus saying that one should become like a little child in order to enter the Kingdom. One of those childlike qualities is imagination. Read this article to discover how we can recapture that sense of imagination.
