The young man we meet in Mark 10 is so attached to his money that he isn't free to follow Jesus. What are you attached to? Does it hold you back? And what is freedom really for, anyway?
Just wanted to say that these uploads are great for those of us who can't make it to mass at the moment. We've got a toddler and a newborn, and whilst I know everyone would say we're welcome, I just know we'd be a huge distraction/annoyance in the pews 😅
Fair point, though I can guarantee you all children are welcome at Epping and Carlingford Parish of Fr. Jim and Fr. Aldrin. We don't mind the noise. But we do hope we don't annoy the little ones. There's a crying room, too. Jesus loves the little children. God bless+ P.S. I have 3 young kids.
You and your family are very welcome. Rest assured - we have all been in similar positions, so understand. You can always pop in for a visit outside of Mass times if this would be more comfortable for you.
Hi Anthony I'm glad that other viewers have already responded with such a welcoming tone. I'm not sure whether you're an Epping Carlingford local or not, but you will be welcome indeed, in whatever way is best for you - don't miss out on the Eucharist!
@frjimmckeon Careful what you wish for, these kids are loud! Jokes aside, the quiet room at the back is very handy, it's just been a lot to handle with the two of them, but the younger one is getting a bit easier so we'll return to services soon 👍
Great video, as usual 🙏
As usual, the Scriptures are full of wisdom. Thank you, Fr Jim, for explaining how to apply it to our daily life.
yes, more wisdom than we can ever respond to. It's like drinking from a waterfall
