Jubilee Prayer
(Shorten Version)
May the grace of the Jubilee reawaken in us, Pilgrims of Hope, a yearning for the treasures of heaven.
May that same grace spread
the joy and peace of our Redeemer throughout
the earth. To you our God,
eternally blessed, be glory and praise for ever.
Amen.
2nd Sunday in Lent Year C
" This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased, listen to him"
Reflections by Father Paul Beukes OMI
The Transfiguration of Jesus offers us a message of encouragement and hope: In moments of doubt and during our dark moments of despair and hopelessness, the thought of our own transfiguration in Heaven will help us to reach out to God and to listen to His consoling words to Jesus: “This is my beloved Son in Whom I am well pleased- listen to Him!” and so share the glory of His transfiguration.
