St Mary's Prays
18th Sunday in Ordinary Time – St Mary of the Cross Mackillop
Jesus says to us, trust in God, work to bring about the kingdom in our lives and in our world and only then leave the rest to God.
This gospel passage was aptly chosen by the Church to mark the feast of St Mary of the Cross – Mary MacKillop. The teaching of Jesus, conveyed through the gospel passage, characterised much of the life and work of Mary MacKillop.
We pray that our lives like Mary Mackillop, will reflect the teachings of Jesus.
