‘Have you never read in the Scriptures, “The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone”?’
Matthew 21:42
Lord, our loving God,
You have entrusted us with
the vineyard of our lives and
our parish community.
Help us to bear fruits of love,
mercy, forgiveness and compassion.
Prune from our hearts whatever keeps us from You, and make us faithful stewards of all You have given us.
Amen
Dear Parishioners and Friends of the Parish,
Today we celebrate the beautiful tapestry of cultures that God has woven into the life of our parish. Many of us come from different countries, cultures and traditions, while others have deep roots here in South Africa. Yet, like many branches growing from one vine, we are brought together by our faith and our life here in this beautiful country, making us one family in Christ.
In today’s Gospel, Jesus speaks of a vineyard entrusted to our care. Our different cultures are also gifts from God, meant to be shared and to enrich the life of our parish community.
To everyone, old parishioners, newcomers, visitors and friends, you are most welcome. You belong here. May our diversity bear fruit in unity, friendship, love and service.
I give thanks to God for each one of you and for the beautiful family God has entrusted
to us.
God bless you and your families, and may we have a joyful and blessed Cultural Day!
Fr. Paul Beukes OMI
