Eucharistic Adoration (2) You may think: "I do not have this true, great love for Jesus. I don't think Adoration is for me..." Do not worry. When one of St John Vianney's Parishioners being asked by the Saint what he said to Our Lord during those long silent hours in front of the Tabernacle, he replied: "Nothing. I look at him and he looks at me." Sometimes, when it comes to love, simple things are the best. Within this intimate moment with Jesus, you just simply be still and quiet whilst gaze on Him, open your heart and let Him do the rest. So even you feel you have little love, just go to Him! Even you are in trouble, just go to Him! Because Our Lord really is hidden there in the Blessed Sacrament, waiting for us to go and visit Him. Remember Jesus said in the Gospel: "...I was thirsty and you gave me drink… I was sick and you visited me. I was in prison and you came to me." (Matthew 25:35-36) Isn't it true that Our Lord is thirsty for souls, and by us going to Him His longing for us can be quenched? And isn't it true that He is wounded for our iniquities and bruised for our sins, and by us visiting Him so we can console Him for all the outrages He receives in His Most Sacred Heart? Isn't it true also that for our sake and His Love for us He becomes a Prisoner of Love in the Tabernacle, and by visiting Him we can show our gratitude and thank Him for dwelling amongst us and stay with us day and night until the end of time? And when we leave the Church, how can Our Blessed Lord, our God who is so generous and merciful, would let you leave empty-handed after your visit? Even your friend would treat you with maybe tea and biscuits when you go to visit. Therefore He would definitely shower you with abundant Gifts and Blessings. Blessed Carlo Acutis once said: "When we face the sun we get a tan… but when we stand before Jesus in the Eucharist we become saints."

“The Apostles said to the Lord, ‘Increase our faith!’ And the Lord said, ‘If you had faith like a grain of mustard seed, you could say to this mulberry tree, “Be uprooted and planted in the sea”, and it would obey you.”’ (Luke 17:5-6) Almighty ever-living God, who in the abundance of your kindness surpass the merits and the desires of those who entreat you, pour out your mercy upon us to pardon what conscience dreads and to give what prayer does not dare to ask. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,  God, for ever and ever. Amen.

This Sunday 7th September , Pope Leo XIV will canonize Bl Carlo Acutis in St. Peter's Square in Rome, together with Bl Pier Giorgio Frassati. Bl Carlo Acutis was born in London in 1991. But he moved to Italy with his parents a few months after his birth. Even though his parents were not particularly religious, but from a very early age, Carlo had a great love for the Eucharist. Although like other teenagers who wore jeans and trainers, played video games, loved computing and websites and enjoyed football, it was obvious that Carlo lived his life for Christ. He used the internet to spread his faith as he created a remarkable website which presents Eucharistic miracles from across the globe. However, after being diagnosed with untreatable leukaemia, Carlo died when he was only fifteen. He was beatified in 2020 following a miraculous healing of a Brazilian child – a healing attributed to his powerful intercession. Here are some of Bl Carlo Acutis’ inspiring quotes: “All people are born as originals but many die as photocopies.” “Sadness is looking at ourselves, happiness is looking towards God.” “The Eucharist is the highway to heaven.” “I offer all the suffering I will have to suffer for the Lord, for the Pope, and the Church.” ‘God’s Influencer’ - a short biography of Carlo Acutis is available for £7.50 from the Church Shop

The tenth World Day of Prayer for the Care of Creation, will be celebrated on 1 September 2025. It is the official start of the Season of Creation, a time of sustained prayer and action. During this season we are encouraged to pray and engage in community events in order to deepen our relationship with God, our neighbour and the earth we share, being ever more attentive to the cry of the earth and the cry of the poor. The theme of the Pope’s message is ‘ Seeds of Peace and Hope ’: “...In proclaiming the Kingdom of God, Jesus often used the image of the seed. As the time of his Passion drew near, he applied that image to himself, comparing himself to the grain of wheat that must die in order to bear fruit...In Christ, we too are seeds, and indeed, “seeds of peace and hope”. The prophet Isaiah tells us that the Spirit of God can make an arid and parched desert into a garden, a place of rest and serenity...They remind us that, together with prayer, determination and concrete actions are necessary if this “caress of God” is to become visible to our world...Now is the time to follow words with deeds. “Living our vocation to be protectors of God’s handiwork is essential to a life of virtue; it is not an optional or a secondary aspect of our Christian experience” (Laudato Si’, 217). By working with love and perseverance, we can sow many seeds of justice and thus contribute to the growth of peace and the renewal of hope. It may well take years for this plant to bear its first fruits, years that, for their part, involve an entire ecosystem made up of continuity, fidelity, cooperation and love, especially if that love mirrors the Lord’s own self-sacrificing Love...I pray that Almighty God will send us in abundance his “Spirit from on high” (Is 32:15), so that these seeds, and others like them, may bring forth an abundant harvest of peace and hope…”
