Sunday 1st Thirteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time
Today's Gospel: Luke 9: 51 - 62

Call to Faith : We are called to follow Jesus. We are called to give commitment to this enterprise with all that that means. It's a call to action. It's a challenge that requires our attention, our energy, and our wholehearted involvement. Exploring Gospel Values : Do you ever get involved in an enterprise that takes time, energy, and commitment ? eg keeping tropical fish; joining a committee; sports or dance groups; further education; charitable work ? What do these enterprises require ? - Attention, organisation, action, commitment. Is there a local voluntary enterprise that impresses you for the commitment shown by the people in it ?

The North West Counties Amateur Rugby League would like to record its thanks to the Parish Centre for their support and sponsorship that they have given to help toward a month long tour of Australia which begins on Thursday. The team hope that this time in Australia will be a great learning experience and may help in building the foundations for success in the professional game. Who knows, we may be able to win Australia at something !! Good luck chaps.
