Dear Parishioners of Our Lady Help of Christians Parish, Sacred Heart Parish, and St. John the Evangelist Parish,
Some friends have suggested to me that I open a blog. Their motive, I am sure, is to keep me busy and out of trouble in my year(s) of retirement. As I envision things at this time, the blog will offer theological reflections directed primarily to the parishioners of Saint John the Evangelist Parish in Wellesley Hills, and to the parishioners of Sacred Heart Parish and Our Lady Help of Christians Parish, now happily joined as the first collaborative in the Garden City of Newton. My plans at the moment are to offer some reflection on the mystery of God’s grace – won for us by the Paschal Mystery of the risen Christ and distributed so generously to those who believe by the work of the Holy Spirit, working especially through the sacraments of the Church.
My message in this little notice is to say to prospective readers in the above-mentioned parishes – Check it out (Prayer and Intelligence), if you are so moved, and let me know if you come to the conclusion whether this project has a future.
Father John Connelly
