This Week in the Bulletin:

We Believe
When we recite the Apostles’ Creed, we declare that we believe in the “Communion of Saints”. By this title, we are not just declaring a belief in all the canonised or proclaimed saints in heaven. We are stating a belief in the calling of all Christians, alive or dead, to see ourselves as linked to each other in our acceptance of Christ as the author of our salvation. A consequence of this is that we try to treat each other as we would treat Christ or, more importantly, as he treats us. This is not as easy as it seems, and it is no wonder we are at times happier to leave the call to holiness to the saints in heaven or to those who pursue the religious life. No such distinction is made in the Creed. We are all called to holiness because we are holy already, the beloved of Christ. St Paul tells us: “You are holy. Therefore, be holy”.
The next question is inevitably: “What does it mean to be holy?” Does it mean being always in church or on our knees? That is not possible if we are holding down a job and looking after our family. Our holiness lies in how we live out the reality of our lives, how we treat each other, our honesty and integrity, our openness to loving and being loved. Prayer and our gathering as a community in church, especially to celebrate the Eucharist, help and support these aims, but the measure of our holiness lies in our daily challenges at home and abroad, “among the pots and pans”, as St Teresa of Avila would say.
