33rd Sunday in Ordinary Time Year A
Matthew 25: 14-30 ‘You have been faithful over a little, enter into the joy of your master.’
At that time: Jesus told his disciples this parable, ‘The kingdom of heaven will be like a man going on a journey, who called his servants and entrusted to them his property. To one he gave five talents, to another two, to another one, to each according to his ability. Then he went away. He who had received the five talents went at once and traded with them, and he made five talents more. So also he who had the two talents made two talents more. But he who had received the one talent went and dug in the ground and hid his master’s money.
This Advent, join Fr Tom Kleinschmidt OMV and team on a spiritual pilgrimage based on the inspiring book "Redemption Road", written by the Jesuit priest Fr. Brendan McManus. No boots or walking poles required, just a listening heart (and a copy of the book)! All meetings in the MC Room are on Saturdays 2- 3pm, starting on Saturday November 21st and running for 5 weeks, ending Saturday 19th December. Look out for flyers with more detail.

Prayer to the Holy Spirit
Come, Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful and enkindle in them the fire of your love.
Send forth your Spirit and they shall be created. And you shall renew the face of the earth.
Let us pray.
O God, who by the light of the Holy Spirit, did instruct the hearts of the faithful, grant us in the same Spirit to be truly wise and ever to rejoice in His consolation.
Through Christ our Lord.
Amen.
