For 5 May 2023, Friday of the fourth week of Easter, based on John 14:1-6
Jesus said to his disciples, ‘Do not let your hearts be troubled. Believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father’s house there are many dwelling-places. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, so that where I am, there you may be also. And you know the way to the place where I am going.’ Thomas said to him, ‘Lord, we do not know where you are going. How can we know the way?’ Jesus said to him, ‘I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.’

So grateful, Joan for your inspiring message that deeply touched our hearts and minds.
So many of us in our congregations are being called to “let go” of Motherhouses and
trusting in the Lord as we move into new life. As you said so well, Joan,
“Home is where the heart is” and Jesus says “Abide in Me as I abide in you.”
How blessed we are to have such a faithful friend being with us in these times.
Blessings on your continued preaching,
Sr. Brigid, OP
