‘Let us train ourselves to recognize hope. We will then be amazed at how much good exists in the world. And our hearts will light up with hope. We will then be able to be beacons of the future for those around us.

Pope Francis – 2024

A Light in the Night – Meditations on Hope

In response to this Jubilee Year theme of hope, our Diocesan Writing Team were invited to share a short reflection on a scripture passage which speaks to them of hope throughout the challenges and the joys of life.

What followed was a beautiful collection of reflections demonstrating how of the Word of God has been a powerful source of strength, peace and hope to each writer in many ways.

We hope you enjoy.
