REMEMBRANCE SUNDAY

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

In our Mass as Jesus speaks to his disciples, we hear the words, “Peace, I leave you, my peace I give you, look not upon our sins, but on the faith of your Church, and graciously grant her peace and unity in accordance with your will.”

If only the people of the world would listen to his voice and not harden their hearts as the people at Massah in the desert! These words reflect the sadness of war, the loss of life and the trauma brought about by conflict.
