Dear all Walkers!
Did you hear about the midget psychic who ran away after breaking the law? The newspaper headlines next day read "Small Medium at Large"...
OK you can stop your evil thoughts about choking me on lame jokes... now that i have your attention. On to the news!
Last Week's CG:
Last week saw many of our younger brothers and sisters from EYR coming back for the follow-up session! It was a good gathering of fun, food, and friendship. Our regular EW goers were not left out too, as the session's reflection was on the Wedding at Cana. Some salient points from the sharings:
1) We always plan our lives around a fixed schedule, and we think we are in control of our time. But what happens when we are called upon to do God's work when we are not expecting it? Do we have the spiritual flexibility to yield to God's call and "do whatever he tells (you) to"?
2) The wedding at Cana is representative of our own endeavours in life: work, parish ministry, family commitments, etc etc. In order for our jars of life not to run dry, we need to fill them up with Jesus' new wine. More importantly, we need to invite Jesus to our 'wedding', to have His presence always so that he can fill us with new life. Of course, we also invite Mary so she can pester her Son to help us in our trials and difficulties.
