We have the promise of the Holy Spirit, who emboldens us and equips us for this mission.

The three-day gathering brought together clergy, religious, parish pastoral council members, lay leaders, and youth, more than a hundred representatives from across the diocese to explore the Church's Synodal path and the importance of journeying together.

The promise of the Holy Spirit is a reminder that we are never alone.

We are reminded that we have the Holy Spirit as our advocate.

The church is not merely an institution but a living embodiment of God's kingdom on earth.

Across the broken plains of Gaza, the devastated cities of Ukraine, the silent cries of Myanmar, and the scorched fields of Africa, the world groans for peace.

The call to love our enemies and those who oppose us requires immense strength and fortitude, attributing to the transformative nature of Christ’s teachings even in the face of adversity.

“Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.”

Genuine faith manifests through love that knows no boundaries.

In today’s first reading, we are called to seek unity within the body of Christ, to listen to one another with open hearts, and to seek guidance from the Holy Spirit in resolving conflicts and disagreements.
