The Week from Saturday 27^th September 2025

Clergy Thought: The readings for the 26th Sunday in Ordinary Time Year C focus on themes of wealth, responsibility, and the afterlife. They challenge us to reflect on our own lives in light of eternal values. In the first reading we are warned against being complacent while others suffer. The psalm praises the justice of God. In the second reading Paul reminds us to pursue virtues. In the gospel Jesus tells the parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus. We are called out to examine ourselves, who enjoy comfort but fail to notice the suffering around us. St. Paul encourages us to seek righteousness, faith, and love. These virtues guide us toward a life that pleases God and helps others. Are we using our blessings to help others, in line with our responsibility and afterlife, as Christians? May we live with compassion and generosity, so as to draw closer to God and find true joy. Amen! Fr Alex

St Henry Morse Services

Welcome to the St Henry Morse website.

The main church of our parish is St Henry Morse in Diss which was built in 2012 replacing the Church of The Most Holy Trinity on Stanley Road dating from 1952.Included in the parish is the Carmel of Quidenham; it has its own website at https://quidenhamcarmel.org.uk.

Our website has now been reorganised and moved to a specially developed server.

So far I have concentrated on giving simple fast access to highly relevant material.

But I need help to broaden the range of content. For example, I can easily add

• eye catching posters about forthcoming events;
• more detailed information about announcements in the newsletter than space allows there;
• photos and accounts of St Henry Morse activities.

All suggestions and contributions are very welcome; contact me,

Chris Wright at ckwright@allmail.net.
