Fifth Sunday of
Easter 6th May 2012
Lord, you said:
I am the vine, you are the branches.
Separated from me you can do nothing, but united with me
you will bear much fruit.
Thank
you, Lord, for the bond you formed with us and thank you
for the bond that exists among us in our Parish
Community. Because we
are a community we have many riches to share with one
another.
Grant
that we may always remain close to you, so that we can
continue to build community and that we may produce
in the
world the fruits of faith, hope and love.
