“Why be envious because I am generous”?
Today’s Gospel goes far beyond our human sense of justice. The owner of the vineyard pays all his workers the same despite having worked different hours. This seem so unjust to our narrow way of looking at things.
But in the parable, Jesus is giving us a picture of the generosity of God. God’s goodness and love goes beyond human justice. It has no limits.
Our only response to God’s generosity is humble thanksgiving. There is no point in trying to compare ourselves to one another. Instead, we are invited to acknowledge that all we are and have is a gift from God who is boundless in mercy, goodness and love.

“The Son of Man must be lifted up so that
everyone who believes may have eternal life in him”.
Today’s feast—The Triumph of the Cross—reminds us why we come to venerate the Cross on Good Friday. Just as Jesus carried his cross to Calvary, so Jesus is with us in the crosses we have to carry. He walks with us in love and ultimately, his love is stronger than death.
So the cross is no longer a symbol of defeat, but a powerful reminder to us of our victory in the risen Christ and the promise of eternal life to all of us.
“God loved the world so much that he gave his only Son so that everyone who believes in him may have eternal life”.

PARISH VOLUNTEER CELEBRATION
A huge amount of work for Tullow parish is done throughout the year by many different voluntary helpers. This work is linked to helping and caring for people, young and old, celebrating various liturgies, ensuring the maintenance of parish property and many other activities associated with parish life.
To identify and show appreciation for this great work all voluntary helpers are invited to a GET-TOGETHER in MOUNT WOLSELEY GOLF and COUNTRY CLUB on WEDNESDAY 17TH SEPTEMBER at 8.00 p.m.
Refreshments will be provided and a short talk given by Julie Kavanagh of the diocesan Faith Services on the importance of this voluntary work to the life of the parish.
Invitations are being issued but as there is a very big number of volunteers involved it is possible that someone may have been inadvertently overlooked. If you become aware of some helper who has not received an invitation please let us know.
For catering purposes it is essential that all who wish to come to this function let us know at the Parish Office (Phone 91 51277) by lunchtime, this Monday 15th September.

“The Son of Man must be lifted up so that
everyone who believes may have eternal life in him”.
Today’s feast—The Triumph of the Cross—reminds us why we come to venerate the Cross on Good Friday. Just as Jesus carried his cross to Calvary, so Jesus is with us in the crosses we have to carry. He walks with us in love and ultimately, his love is stronger than death.
So the cross is no longer a symbol of defeat, but a powerful reminder to us of our victory in the risen Christ and the promise of eternal life to all of us.
“God loved the world so much that he gave his only Son so that everyone who believes in him may have eternal life”.
