Thought from Fr. Colm - 8th February 2026

Shine and Season

You are the salt upon the earth,

A quiet gift of humble worth,

That seasons hearts with grace and care,

And draws the lost to love’s repair.

You are the light the night can’t hide,

A beacon burning deep inside,

Set high so wandering souls may see

The path to truth, the way to be.

So let your kindness brightly glow,

In every place your feet may go;

For when your life reflects His flame,

The world will glorify His name.
