Bearers of Hope

Friends of the Oratory, let us be “Bearers of Hope” as our pastoral theme invites us to do. At the dawn of another year marked by the covid-19 pandemic, this invitation is urgent. And on this January 1, World Day of Prayer for Peace, let us pray that we may be able to build lasting peace together in this climate of crisis and discouragement. Let us remain in solidarity with and caring for one another.
