We ask you to be with them as they journey on to new courses and adventures. This we ask through our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen. Liturgy of the Word First Reading A reading from the Book of Isaiah(43:1-7) I have called you by name and you are mine. When you pass through the waters When you walk through fire, you shall not be burned. And the flame shall not consume you. For I am the Lord your God, You are precious in my eyes.

5 Responsorial Psalm Second Reading A reading from the Letter of St. Paul to the Romans Do not let your love be a pretence but sincerely prefer good to evil. Love each other as much as brothers and sisters should, and have a profound respect for each other. Work for the Lord with untiring effort and with great earnestness of spirit. If you have hope, this will make you cheerful. Do not give up if trials come, and keep on praying. If any of the saints are in need you must share with them, and you should make hospitality your special care. Bless those who persecute you: never curse them, bless them. Rejoice with those who rejoice and be sad with those in sorrow. but make real friends with the poor. Do not allow yourself to become self-satisfied. Never repay evil with evil but let everyone see that you are interested only in the highest ideals. Do all you can to live at peace with everyone. The Word of the Lord All: Thanks be to God Gospel Acclamation ~ Fr. Cunningham: Gospel Homily

8 Sign of Peace ~ Communion Songs ~ ~ Post Communion Reflection Don t undermine your worth by comparing yourself with others. It is because we are different that each one of us is special. Don t set your goals by what other people deem important. Only you know what is best for you. Don t take for granted the things closest to your heart. Cling to them as you would your life, for without them life is meaningless. Don t let your life slip through your fingers by living in the past. By living your life one day at a time, you live all the days of your life. Don t give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying. Don t be afraid to admit that you are less than perfect. This fragile thread binds us to each other. Don t be afraid to encounter risks. It is taking chances that we learn to be brave. Don t shut love out of your life by saying it is impossible to find. wings. Don t rush through life so fast that you forget not only where you ve been but also where you re going. Life is not a race, but a journey to be savoured each step of the way.
