‘Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.’
Matthew 5:3
Our Lady of Lourdes
Rivonia Catholic Church
Lord Jesus, teach us to walk humbly, serve generously,
and love sincerely.
May our words reflect Your truth and our actions reveal
Your compassion.
Give us the grace to support
those who are burdened and to recognise Your presence
in one another.
May our parish community grow
in faith, unity, and love,
becoming a living witness
to Your Gospel
Amen
Today's readings call us to live our faith with humility and sincerity. Through the prophet Malachi, God challenges those who have turned away from His ways. In the Responsorial Psalm, we are reminded to find peace in the Lord with humble and trusting hearts. St. Paul, in the Second Reading, shows us the meaning of selfless service by sharing not only the Gospel, but his very life with others.
In the Gospel, Jesus reminds us that true greatness lies not in titles or recognition, but in serving others and practising what we preach.
As a parish community, may we grow in humility, care for those who are burdened, and support one another with love. May our words and actions reflect Christ, so that all who meet us may experience the warmth and goodness of God.
