Dear Parish Family, “We just need to love one another!” This is a quote from Fr Steve Hurd SJ who serves at Manresa. Perhaps you read the article about him in Detroit Catholic. Often we can bring clarity to situations with the simplest of solutions. Our world seems to be topsy turvy with so much unrest and evil pervasive from one thing to another. One of our parishioners whose family member had a very close call health wise, mentioned the love of being with their church family this morning and the comfort of being in their church home. Laughter can bring comfort, listening, and sharing compassion lifts us up. We speak of the providence of God’s goodness that needs to be seen through wide open eyes. From the commandment of Jesus “ye love one another as I have loved you.” (John 15:12) Our demonstrating this love can provide the foundation of evangelization. We know that all of us are created in the image of God and that he asks us to share his love in the world and through the lives of others. May our loving God bless us with his love and encourage us to share love with one another. Mary Jo
