FIRST COMMUNION PREPARATION 'Caring' This is the fourth theme of our children's preparation and we are looking at the scripture story, the Daughter of Jairus (Mark 5:21-43) which focuses on the General Intercessions in the Mass. Like Jairus, we ask Jesus for help. We invite the Spirit of Jesus to answer our needs and to help us care for the needs of others. We can be Jesus to others; they can be Jesus to us. Our 11.00am Mass today celebrates this theme. Please keep our children and their families in your prayer.
