Morning Prayer with the Oblates: Sunday July 10th

With Fr Liam Griffin OMI

Dear friends let us join Fr Liam Griffin OMI, Oblate Provincial Administration, for this Sunday’s prayer this morning.

‘You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind, and your neighbour as yourself.’ – Luke 10:25-37

Jesus asks that we care about our neighbours with the same intensity that we care about ourselves. This love is more than simply smiling at strangers and trying to develop positive attitudes towards people we don’t particularly like.

Active involvement with people who are downtrodden and oppressed is a key feature of loving outreach in God’s kingdom. It might mean taking initiatives to reach out to vulnerable and destitute people in our community who can never repay our favours.

Thank you for joining us this morning.
