Excerpt from a letter received from Fr. Derek Darby, Pastoral Development, Meath Diocesan Office,
regarding a team of parishioners from a parish in the diocese that have been studying and praying
with the Word of God for some time, and the fruits of their labours are presented in a series of
weekly reflections on the scripture which they are willing to share with parishes across the Diocese
Each week, the team reflects on the three main scripture readings of the Sunday Mass distilling them
down for the reader under the headings of: context, key verses, key themes, questions/application to
our lives, and further reading from the catechism. This home-grown resource may prove an
invaluable aid to understanding the readings at Sunday Mass and can be brought to the attention of
your parishioners.

To access the resource, first click on the link to Diocese of Meath on our website, and then click on
the ‘Resources’ menu bar, then click on ‘Word of God’. It will take you to the new resource as well as
additional resources on the Sacred Scripture.
