The Week from Saturday 14^th November 2026

Clergy Thoughts. Our Liturgical year is nearing its end. ‘Eschatology’ is the study of end-times. In an earlier passage to today’s Gospel, Jesus emphasised that the Second Coming would be unmistakeable, unknown and unexpected. Today we learn that his focus was not on the when and where his return, but on the response expected of the faithful disciple. The first reading and the psalm both connect patience with faith. St Paul tells us that the primary goal is recognise and welcome Jesus when he returns. St Matthew, when he wrote his gospel realised that Christ’s return was delayed, so he emphasised the development of Christian life- we must prepare ourselves for our Lord’s unexpected and sudden return.
