Gospel Reflection:
As Jesus continued his journey to Jerusalem, he traveled through Samaria and Galilee.
As he was entering a village, ten lepers met him.
They stood at a distance from him and raised their voices, saying,
“Jesus, Master! Have pity on us!”
Luke 17:11–13

Most merciful Lord, You are able to do all things.
You are able to heal all my wounds, forgive my sins and solve every problem I encounter.
As I cry out to You in my need, please do heal me.
In response, may I always turn back to You with the deepest gratitude and praise
so that my faith in You will grow and my love for You will truly flourish.
Jesus, I trust in You.

This morning Pope Leo XIV proclaimed the Catholic Church’s first millennial saint, an Italian teenager dubbed “God’s Influencer” for his efforts to spread the faith online.

Read about Carlo Acutis and Pier Giorgio Frassati, an Italian mountaineering enthusiast who died of polio aged 24 in 1925, and who was also made a saint.

Céad Míle Fáilte

Firstly a hearty welcome to all who have moved into our parishes in recent times!

Many thanks for visiting our Parish website.
This site has been designed with three aims:

Firstly to aid the work of our priests in our parishes in preaching the word of Jesus and their teaching of His message to us.

Secondly to aid parents, children and adults as our children and young adults prepare for the Sacraments.

Thirdly to reflect the wider community among whom we live and the various activities and organisations that go to make up our community.

We acknowledge and respect the diversity of faiths and origins in our multi-faith and multi-ethnic community.

We invite your views and contributions on church and parish life.
Also as this site was built with limited resources there may be aspects that could be improved – do let us know.

Feel free to e-mail us at edgeworthstownparish@gmail.com
