 Reflection


Sunday 27th  May

Whose woods these are I hardly know, his house is in the village though;
he will not see me stopping here to watch his woods fill up with snow.

My little horse must think it queer to stop without a farmhouse near, between the woods and frozen lake the darkest evening of the year.

He gives his harness bells a shake to ask if there is some mistake; the only other sound is the sweep of easy wind and downy flake.

The woods are lovely, dark and deep, but I have promises to keep; and miles to go before I sleep, and miles to go before I sleep
ord, when I was young, I

Summer Wishes with a memory of Cliff Richard


Among a group of people I asked could they recall Cliff Richard's first song hit. It was the wrong question to ask as most of my audience wasn't born when Cliff recorded, 'Move It' or 'Living Doll'. They must have been alive when he recorded ,'Summer Holiday' because this was the title given most in reply to the question. It was a rather apt response for this is the time ofthe year when this parish and it's parishoners decide to go on a Summer Holiday. We think of blue skies, sun drenched days, long sandy beaches, return to our native country, the encounter with family and the hope of a good rest. The reward we hope for is probably to return refreshed into what is familiar. Belgium comes up with some lovely summers. Those summers would be better still if we could send the mosquitos on a summer holiday as well. I know summer is here because Patrick the resident feline is losing his coat. The high points of the pastoral life of the Parish has come and gone. The celebration of Communion reception for the first time for the younger generation, along with the reception of the Sacrament of Confirmation have come and gone. The work begun last September by all our catechists is now over and they can look back on a job well done. We are indebted to everyone of the people who made themseves voluntary available for the success of the religious teaching we have available here in the parish.The Fayre is something the organiser can be proud of along with all her helpers. The article in the Bulletin concerning herself and all the helpers was first class. I find this a hard time because some of the finest people we get to know are leaving us. For all of you we wish a safe journey to your new situation. As St. Francis would put it, 'May the lord give you His peace.'May the memory of your presence here never be forgotten. To Blannid and her husband Pat we give a special bon voyage. Blannid as parish secretary and Pat as musician in the choir gave us wonderful service. So may the Lord be with you all May you have his peace. May you have a holiday that is of your hope. May your giving hand of generosity be rewarded by a similar return of generosity from all whom you meet. From myself a heartfelt thanks for enduring me for the past year.

God be with you all. Pat
