veckobrev Epiphany and the Baptism of Christ
Fr. Johnnys veckobrev på engelska hittar du här. Fr. Johnnys veckobrev översatt till svenska hittar du här.
Hej allihopa,
Jag är lite sen den här veckan. Vi har varit hos Patrick i Köpenhamn. Fr Johnny har skickat brev för 2 veckor den här veckan. Nästa vecka säger han till oss: "the baptism we have been promised is a baptism with the Holy Spirit and with fire. Det dop som har lovats oss är ett dop med den Helige Ande och med eld". Resten finns i hans utmanande brev.
Vi har bett för Fr. Josef som är allvarligt sjuk. Imorse kom jag ihåg någonting som han sade till mig för många år sedan. "Prisa Herren med allt du gör". Det var när jag lyssnade till följande på "3 Minutes Retreat” på Loyola Press som jag blev påmind.
God, Father, Son and Spirit, you are the relationship I desire. Help me to know the power of that relationship in my own life so that all I do may give you praise. Gud, Fader, Son och Ande, du är den relation jag önskar. Hjälp mig att känna till makten av denna relation i mitt eget liv så att allt jag gör må lovprisa dig.
Vi hörs om ca två veckor.
God fortsättning på det nya året.

Dear Friends,
When I sent you
my input for next week I forgot that I needed to send you the
one for the following week as well. I will be away all next
week at our Redemptorist Chapter which is being held in
Dromantine near Newry. This will be a critical gathering for us
so please pray for us as a Religious Order that we can build a
great future for the Church.
Attached you
will find my input for the week beginning with the Baptism of
Christ. This brings Christmastide to an end and begins us on
our journey with Christ through his life and ministry and
leading us to Easter and beyond.
Thank you for
your faith and love. God bless you and all your loved ones
always.
Johnny
Dear Friends,
I wish you and
all your loved ones a very happy New Year. I pray that it will
be a year of health and happiness for you. And I pray that it
will be a year of renewed hope and joy for the Church. There
are many challenges ahead for all of us. I hope we can face
them with the confidence of our faith and with the support of
one another.
Attached is my
input for next week, beginning with the feast of the Epiphany.
This is a reminder to all of us that Christmas is not over!!
Our focus on Christmas continues until the following week when
we celebrate the feast of the Baptism of Christ. It is up to us
to keep the focus there because the world around us has now well
and truly moved on to other things!!
You are in my
prayers every day and will continue to be in them throughout the
new year. Please pray for me and for one another. God bless
you always.
Johnny
