Alleluia, alleluia!
Open our heart, O Lord,
to accept the words of your Son.
Alleluia!
Gospel: Matthew 22:34-40
The commandments of love
When the Pharisees heard that Jesus had silenced the Sadducees they got together and, to disconcert him, one of them put a question, ‘Master, which is the greatest commandment of the Law?’ Jesus said, ‘You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the greatest and the first commandment. The second resembles it: You must love your neighbour as yourself. On these two commandments hang the whole Law, and the Prophets also.’
Do we Love God with all our heart, soul and mind?
Do we love our neighbour as our self?

Fundraiser.
Until the end of 2023 I am helping fundraise for the Alice House Hospice in Hartlepool, this facility cared for my wife Ann during her last month of illness before she passed away. The Hospice relies on donations to keep running so please be as generous as you are able.
So far I have raised £105 - and walked 111 miles.
