Christian-Muslim Stories of Encounter The monks’ story – familiar to many thanks to the award-winning 2010 film Of Gods and Men – forms the backbone of this deeply affecting and thoughtful celebration of interreligious friendship. By drawing on the inspiring witness of the Catholic Church in Algeria and Morocco, Fr Martin sensitively illuminates the way in which Christians can connect sincerely in everyday life with their Muslim neighbours.

Seek and Find WebsiteFrom the Blog From the Blog Last Sunday’s Gospel was the story of Thomas, and of Jesus’ message, “Blessed are those who have not seen and have believed.” The story of ‘Doubting Thomas’ is aimed at all who will not see the Risen Lord, yet are asked to believe. We are called to believe in what we cannot see or hear or touch, when even those closest to Jesus had problems in accepting what was happening. Thomas wanted to believe in the Risen Jesus, but he wasn’t the sort of person to pretend he understood something when he didn’t. He wasn’t the sort of person that could pretend that he didn’t have doubts when he did. Jesus was patient with him and showed him what he needed to see. In the same way, the Risen Jesus will show us the way forward. Christ is always in our midst inviting us to touch him and to believe. It important to remember that doubt can be a good thing. Doubt means that we are still questioning something that we care about. Doubt means that we are still looking for answers, that we are still learning and growing. • This week: • Many people embark on some sort of religious pilgrimage to find answers and meaning in their lives.

For the Classroom • “Each second we live is a new and unique moment of the universe, a moment that will never be again And what do we teach our children? We teach them that two and two make four, and that Paris is the capital of France. When will we also teach them what they are? We should say to each of them: Do you know what you are? You are a marvel. You are unique. In all the years that have passed, there has never been another child like you. Your legs, your arms, your clever fingers, the way you move. You may become a Shakespeare, a Michaelangelo, a Beethoven. You have the capacity for anything. Yes, you are a marvel. And when you grow up, can you then harm another who is, like you, a marvel? You must work, we must all work, to make the world worthy of its children.” ― Pablo Casals
