Parish Priest
Holy Spirit of peace,
we pray for homes and nations where there is discord and conflict.
Pour out your breath of peace that people may listen to each other;
may respect one another; may honour each other. Holy Spirit, hear us.
Come, Holy Spirit, come.
Amen
Pentecost Sunday
“When he comes, the spirit of truth , he will guide you to all truth" John 16:13
Reflections by Father Paul Beukes OMI
The Holy Spirit is a symbol of light, filling us, as the disciples were filled, with the power and love of God, to go and make disciples of all people through our actions and our testimony in our society.
With the coming of the Holy Spirit to the world, a new type of relationship is possible for us with God and with other people.
It is the Spirit of Jesus within us, softening our hearts. It is personal - one who comes to comfort us, inspire, direct, help and nudge us. Like a heartbeat within us. A spirit of light and truth, with us forever.

Prayer for Elections
Lord, we the people of South Africa and all who live here, thank and praise you for your inexhaustible love and the graces of healing and peace you continually offer to us as people.
As South Africa prepares for the elections on May 29, send us your Holy Spirit to form the consciences of the voters according to the Gospel of Jesus Christ, so that leaders may be elected who aspire for the common good of all people, and have the fear of the Lord in their hearts.
Mary, Mother of Peace, we pray for peace in our world; make us peacemakers.
Amen
