The Gospel Reading of Lazarus and the rich man (Luke 16:19-31) should lead us to reflect and act on the indifference that exists in our communities and in our world and which leads to immense suffering of those who should have a place at the table of life.

Building blocks for peace

“Peace is a gift, it is a handcrafted gift that we must work for every day; but doing so in the small things, in daily ‘littleness.’ Great manifestations for peace, great international encounters, are not enough if peace is not then made in little things…if in your little things, in your heart, there is no peace, in your family there is no peace, in your neighbourhood there is no peace, in your place of work there is no peace, there will not be peace in the world” (Pope Francis, September 8, 2016).

Promoting unity in diversity through Carnival

“The ability to reach unity in diversity will be the beauty and the test of our civilization” (Gandhi)

I thought of Gandhi’s words after the recent Notting Hill Carnival (NHC) in London, Europe’s largest street festival.
I was honoured once again to be one of the judges at the carnival. Read about the history of NHC which started in 1964.
The 50th Anniversary of NHC was celebrated from 2014-2016 with the different aspects of carnival: masquerade, sound systems, steel bands, calypso and soca – amazing creativity and diverse artistic excellence – including that of my brother, Anil ‘Speedy’ Ramdeen and his partner, Clary Salandy, who run Mahogany Carnival Design. They won first prize in their category on both days.

St Teresa, icon of charity and mercy

The Vatican will anticipate the canonisation of Blessed Teresa of Kolkata with this special postage stamp, which will be released September 2, two days before Pope Francis officially declares her a saint. CNS photo/courtesy Vatican Philatelic and Numismatic Office.

“Love is not patronizing and charity isn’t about pity, it is about love. Charity and love are the same – with charity you give love, so don’t just give money but reach out your hand instead.” – Blessed Teresa of Calcutta

Today (September 4), we thank God as Pope Francis canonises Blessed Teresa of Calcutta (now Kolkata). She was born on August 26, 1910 as Agnes Gonxha Bojaxhiu in Skopje, Macedonia. She was the third child of an Albanian grocer and his wife.

Each time we say the Creed, we profess our belief in the Communion of Saints. As St Teresa joins this Communion of Saints in heaven, let us ask her to intercede for us and strive to imitate her life – a life of prayer and action; a life of unshakable faith, devoted to the sick, the poor, the wounded and the marginalised. She died of heart failure at the age of 87 years old in 1997 in Calcutta.
