Our Lady of Guadelope

O God, Father of mercies, who placed your people under the singular protection of your Son’s most holy Mother, grant that all who invoke the Blessed Virgin of Guadalupe may seek with ever more lively faith the progress of peoples in the ways of justice and of peace; through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

Fr Austin leads this on-going study of the Book of Job. This is repeat of the Sunday morning class, which meets at 10am.

The book of Job is not just one speech after another, without any progression of thought. A careful reading uncovers many riches. After chapter 25, the dialogue between Job and his friends has completely broken down. When we try to understand suffering, we reach a place where we just can’t reason any further. What then happens? Therein is the brilliance of this book. Newcomers are welcome to the class every week.
