🌍 Earth Day 2026: Living Our Pledge to Care for God’s Creation As we celebrate Earth Day 2026, we are reminded of the commitment we made as a Church community on 14 September 2025—a pledge to protect and care for God’s Kingdom. As stewards of God’s creation, our Church continues this journey as an ecological parish, striving to live more responsibly and care for the environment entrusted to us. With hearts full of gratitude and respect for creation, we reaffirm our commitment to: 🌱 Reducing waste and promoting recycling 💧 Conserving water and energy 🌍 Supporting ecological initiatives in our parish and community 🙏 Nurturing an awareness of creation in our prayers, liturgy, and daily lives “The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it” (Psalm 24:1) This Earth Day is not just a celebration—it is a call to live out our identity as an ecological parish, renewing the pledge we made and caring for God’s creation in all that we do.
What are Altar Linens? Altar linens are sacred cloths, usually white and traditionally made of linen, placed on the altar and used during the Eucharist. More than just fabric, they reflect purity, reverence, and the Body of Christ. Main Types of Altar Linens • Altar Cloth (Fair Linen) – covers the altar table • Corporal – placed under the chalice and host • Purificator – used to cleanse the chalice • Pall – covers the chalice • Lavabo Towel – used by the priest to dry his hands Why They Matter? Altar linens are a quiet yet powerful reminder of our faith: • Honouring the sacredness of the Eucharist • Protecting the altar and sacred vessels • Symbolising Christ’s burial cloth
INRI proclaims Him as King—but Easter reveals what kind of King He truly is. Our King did not cling to power; He chose the Cross. He did not save Himself; He gave Himself - completely - for us. On Good Friday, the King of the Jews died, crowned with thorns. But on Easter Sunday, He rose again, proving that His love is stronger than death. So INRI is no longer just a sign above the Cross - it becomes a living truth: The King who died for us is the King who lives for us.
