The grace of forgiveness. Forgiveness is not easy. There is no more difficult form of giving than forgiving. For some people, forgiveness seems an impossible requirement, because of what they have suffered and the harm that has been done to them. How do you forgive someone who has done something terrible to you or to a member of your family? There are times in our lives when we are not able to forgive someone, especially when the offending person shows no sign of remorse or of wanting to make restitution for the harm done. Jesus, in today's parable of the unforgiving servant, is suggesting that God's tender, limitless mercy towards us is with a view to our own transformation. To really open our lives to God's limitless mercy is to be transformed by God's love into God's likeness. We all have someone to forgive and we all need to be forgiven by someone. Offering forgiveness to another will never come easy to us; it sometimes comes very slowly. Today's Gospel suggests that the more we appreciate and open ourselves up to the gift of God's limitless forgiveness of us, the freer we will be to pass on that forgiveness to others. Fr. Owen Joe.

Eircode: A75 TY89 Parish OfÏce Hours: Mon—Fri: 10am – 2pm Tel: 042 9740027 Email: mcparishofÏce@clogherparishes.ie Emergency Number / Sick Calls only : 083 09 72 683 Reflection on Todays Gospel In today ’s Gospel, Peter asks Jesus, “How often must I forgive? ” Jesus ’ answer— “not seven times but seventy-seven times ”—reminds us that forgiveness is not about keeping count. It is a way of l iving. The parable of the unforgiving servant shows us the depth of God ’s mercy. We have received forgiveness far beyond what we could ever earn, yet we can sometimes struggle to extend that same mercy to oth- ers. Jesus challenges us to remember that the forgiveness we receive from God sh ould overflow into our relationships. Forgiving does not mean pretending that hurt never happened. It means c hoosing not to let resentment have the final word. As we pray the Lord ’s Prayer, “forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us, ” may we ask for the grace to forgive generously, patiently, and from the heart .

New Parish OfȦce Hours: Mon 6pm – 9pm, Wed 10.30am – 6.30pm Thurs 10.30am – 1.30pm Points to Ponder Readiness to forgive is taught by many of the great philosophies and religions of the world. Why? Because you can’t be happy, or have any sort of inner peace, far less inner joy, ifyou refuse to forgive. Dwelling on past hurts, nurturing resentment, indulging simmering anger: these things can blight or embitter a person’s whole life. Unfortunately though, asallofus know: sometimes forgiveness can seem very diącult indeed, even impossible. Perhaps this is so nowadays more than ever, because contemporary secular culture encourages us to think of ourselves as victims, who have a right to demand compensation and redress. What though ifwećndittoo hard? What if my brother really hurts or upsets me, and ever continues todoso? What if I have been so deeply wounded by someone that my life is eĄectively ruined? In that case, let us simply admit the impossibility of our task, and turn to Godfor help. O God come tomyaid, wecry. ‘Lord, help metoletgoof this. If I can’t forgive, then do you forgive in my place. Bless us both, Lord, so that each ofusis able to receive the gift of your forgiveness.’ We pray, wegoto confession, and we come to Mass. Here the love and mercy of Jesus that Ĉows from his sacrićcial death are made present, and received in sacramental form. Here supremely wećndthe grace and strength we need, in order toletgoofthe debt we are owed: we, who have been redeemed from our own incomparably greater debt, through the blood of Jesus Christ our Lord. pluscardenabbey.org Thought for Today As Catholics, we have received the Sacrament of Reconcil iation, which allows us to experience God’s forgiveness perso nally. Itisa reminder of His boundless love and mercy. In turn, it should inspire ustobe forgiving and merciful in our interac tions with others. We must remember that forgiveness is not just a one-time actbuta continuous disposition of the heart. Letusbemin dful of the unforgiving servant in the parable and strive tobe merciful and forgiving as our Heavenly Father istous. In doing so, we bear witness to the transformative power of God’s love and mercy in our lives andinthe world . Adam Eichelberger • assumptions.org

This lovely prayer could easily fill those moments. Every day, I need you Lord, but today especially I need some extra strength to face whatever is to come. This day, more than any other day, I need to feel you near me to strengthen my courage and to overcome my fear. By myself I cannot meet the challenge of the hour. We are frail human creatures and we need a Higher Power to sustain us in all that life may bring. And so dear Lord, hold my trembling hand.

Oh most holy and afflicted Virgin, Queen of Martyrs, you stood beneath the cross, witnessing the agony of your dying Son. Look with a mother’s tenderness and pity onme, who kneel before you.

To whom shall I resort in my wants and miseries ifnottoyou, O Mother of Mercy, who, having so deeply drunk of the chalice of your Son, can compassionate the sorrows of those who still sigh in the land of exile?

Sunday 13/09 (11.00am) Donors’ Intention – Faithful Departed Souls Reflection: What Are We Living From? We cannot go through life without being hurt. People disappoint us, misunderstand us, sometimes treat us badly. Forgiveness does not mean pretending that these things do not matter, nor does it mean that every damaged relationship can simply be restored. But there is another question worth asking: what do w e allow our hurts todotous? What happens within us eventually reaches other people. Hurt can travel through us. Resentment can travel through us. Someone else’s bitterness can slowly become our bitte rness too. But mercy can travel through us as well. None of us has made our life entirely by ourselves. We have rec eived love we did not earn, patience we did not deserve, opportunities we could not have created, fau lts that others chose to overlook. Above all, we live within the mercy of God. The challenge is to rem ember not only what has been done to us, but also what has been done for us. Sooner or later, one or the other will pass through us into the lives of others. Baptism or Marriage: To arrange for these, please contact Enniskillen Parish Office 6632-2075: Monday to Bingo: Bingo continues in St Mary’s Community Centre each Thursday night at 8.30pm with the usual p rizes, £5,000 Jackpot on Game 10 *(on 44 calls or less) Everyone welcome.
