The Jubilee Prayer

Father in heaven,
may the faith you have given us
in your son, Jesus Christ, our brother,
and the flame of charity enkindled in our hearts by the Holy Spirit, reawaken in us the blessed hope for the coming of your Kingdom.

May your grace transform us into tireless cultivators of the seeds of the Gospel.
May those seeds transform from within both humanity and the whole cosmos in the sure expectation of a new heaven and a new earth,
when, with the powers of Evil vanquished,
your glory will shine eternally.

May the grace of the Jubilee reawaken in us, Pilgrims of Hope, a yearning for the treasures of heaven. May that same grace spread the joy and peace of our Redeemer throughout the earth. 

To you our God, eternally blessed, be glory and praise for ever.

Amen

📸TOGETHER FOR SANCTUARY

⛪ Last night many gathered at The Immaculate Conception Church in Maryhill for Together for Sanctuary, a moving ecumenical worship service as part of Refugee Festival Scotland.

Organised by (SFAR) and co-hosted by Justice & Peace Scotland, the evening brought together people from many Christian traditions and cultures to stand in solidarity with those who seek sanctuary.

🙏 The evening began with an ecumenical prayer and worship service during which we prayed for peace and intentions for countries close to the hearts of those present: Afghanistan, Ukraine, Congo, El Salvador, Palestine, Nigeria, Sudan, Israel, Pakistan, Syria, Iran, America, Scotland and many more.

🕊️Through prayer, music, reflection and powerful testimonies from people with lived experience of displacement, we were reminded of our shared call to welcome the stranger and build communities of justice, compassion and hope.

💬 Two parishioners from Immaculate Conception, Ruth and Rita, courageously shared their own stories of their journeys to finding sanctuary, security and welcome here in Scotland. Fr Andriy Chornenko of the Ukrainian Catholic Parish in Glasgow offered a powerful reflection after the Gospel of the Good Samaritan reminding us of Jesus’ call to “go and do likewise” for the stranger in our midst.

🍲 After the service we shared food prepared by community members and shared dishes from places such as El Salvador and the Philippines, celebrating the richness and diversity of the Church as one family in Christ.

Thank you to everyone who contributed, participated, and joined us in this beautiful expression of faith, hospitality and solidarity and for coming together to "go and do likewise".
