Easter 5
This week we read of Jesus' command to the disciples to love one another. He also reminds them that they will continue to feel his presence despite the fact that he will not be with them. They will exhibit their discipleship by doing what he commands: by loving one another as he loved them.
Angela is away until 6 June. In the meantime, the office phone is diverted to my mobile. so please leave a message and I will get back to you.
