There stood Peter and James on Mount Tabor, when the Lord Jesus’ clothes became dazzling white, and alongside him stood Moses and Elijah, and Peter turned to Jesus and said, “Master, how good it is that we are here.”
Just as I turn to you and say, “How good it is that we are here.”
How good you are to generously support this Cathedral, like the generations before you. How good you are to come together here week after week to pray and sing and worship the Lord. How good you are to receive the Lord in Holy Communion, carrying him deep in your hearts. How good you are to teach you children and your grandchildren about the Lord who has brought meaning to your life. How good you are to answer God’s Call to be Catholics and members of the Bishop’s own Church here at Saint Paul’s Cathedral.
How good it is to be here, and how privileged I am to be your pastor.
Thank you for all you and for all you are.
How good it is for us to be here!
