REFLECTION MASS TODAY In a story filled with such violence as we have today, it might be easy to forget that we are dealing with a merciful God! God calls a First Reading: Isaiah 25: 6-10 people to himself and desires that they come to him. The Responsorial Psalm: destruction of the city of Jerusalem with its temple was interpreted Psalm 22 (23): 1-3, 3-4, 5, 6 by Christians at the time as God’s judgement bon Judah. A violent Response is: world saw stories of violence. Though we may wish to minimise In the Lord’s own house shall io dwell for ever the violence, unfortunately it has been part of human history from and ever. the beginning, and continues to this day. Second Reading: It might be difficult to strip away the violent imagery and focus Philippians 4: 12-14, 19-20 instead on the kernel underneath it all. Matthew’s Church has the Gospel Acclamation: wisdom and experience of decades since the death and Alleluia! Alleluia! Resurrection of Jesus. It has learned that there are some in the The Word was made flesh and lived among us: Church who do not belong, as indicated in several parables. Sadly, to all who did accept him our modern experience reflects this too. Simply being in the he gave power to become children of God. Church does not make one holy, God’s chosen. Or a paragon of Alleluia! Virtue. There are weeds within the wheat. Only God has the Gospel: Matthew 22: 1-14 authority to definitively and eternally expel such a person. The sobering reminder that “many are called, but few are chosen” should cause us to pause, reflect, and re-examine our lives. SAINTS DAYS AND FEAST DAYS THIS WEEK • Monday 12th October - Saint Wilfrid • Tuesday 13th October - Saint Edward the Confessor • Wednesday 14th October - Saint Callistus • Thursday 15th October - Saint Teresa of Avila • Saturday 17th October - Saint Ignatius of Antioch HAPPY FEAST DAY to Saint Wilfrid the people of Haltwhistle on Monday Wilfrid was born at Ripon in North Yorkshire. As a young man he entered Saint 12th October, the Feast Aidan’s monastery on Lindisfarne, which followed the usages and liturgical customs of Saint Wilfrid of the Celtic church. He later studied in Rome, readily adopting the Roman tradition, and introduced this tradition to the monastery of Ripon, where he had been invited to become Abbot. He played a leading role at the Synod of Whitby (664), which extended the Roman usages to the whole country. His time as Archbishop of York was fraught with difficulties: he returned from France after his consecration to find that Saint Chad had taken his place; his diocese was later divided against his will; his appeal to Rome against this division led to his imprisonment by the king of Northumbria. Much of Wilfrid’s later life was spent in missionary work in the south of England. He was responsible for the extension of Ripon Abbey and for the foundation of Hexham Abbey. In 705 he relinquished control of the Diocese of York and became Bishop of Hexham, until his death in about 709. Wilfrid was an outstanding man of his time, who never lost the courage of his convictions. His missionary endeavours in the south of England were to bring forth much fruit.

SUNDAY’S SECOND READING: WERE THE PHILIPPIANS PAUL’S FAVOURITES? Don’t be shocked by the title of this piece! Well, do be shocked, but don’t be surprised. The letter to the Philippians is the “nicest” of all his writings – he clearly saw them as a friendly community in whom he could place the deepest trust. The city of Philippi was at the northern tip of what is modern Greece, and was an important Roman colony. Paul had preached there on his 2nd missionary journey round the Mediterranean (about 50AD, twenty or so years after Jesus’ death & resurrection). On his third missionary tour (53-58AD), he visited the place twice, before making his way to Jerusalem. Paul thanks them for their generosity – they had supported him financially and emotionally in difficult times before he wrote the letter. This is important, because Paul is usually at pains to say that doesn’t preach the gospel for financial gain – he sees it as duty that God gave him. That’s why he mentions being able to survive, “full stomach or empty stomach, poverty or plenty”. But the fact remains that he was glad of the help that the Philippians had been able to offer him – he writes in this weekend’s 2nd reading: “All the same, it was good of you to share with me in my hardships”.

  • Bede's Ecclesiastical History of England a Revised
    BEDE'S ECCLESIASTICAL HISTORY OF ENGLAND A REVISED TRANSLATION WITH INTRODUCTION, LIFE, AND NOTES BY A. M. SELLAR LATE VICE-PRINCIPAL OF LADY MARGARET HALL, OXFORD LONDON GEORGE BELL AND SONS 1907 EDITOR'S PREFACE The English version of the "Ecclesiastical History" in the following pages is a revision of the translation of Dr. Giles, which is itself a revision of the earlier rendering of Stevens. In the present edition very considerable alterations have been made, but the work of Dr. Giles remains the basis of the translation. The Latin text used throughout is Mr. Plummer's. Since the edition of Dr. Giles appeared in 1842, so much fresh work on the subject has been done, and recent research has brought so many new facts to light, that it has been found necessary to rewrite the notes almost entirely, and to add a new introduction. After the appearance of Mr. Plummer's edition of the Historical Works of Bede, it might seem superfluous, for the present at least, to write any notes at all on the "Ecclesiastical History." The present volume, however, is intended to fulfil a different and much humbler function. There has been no attempt at any original work, and no new theories are advanced. The object of the book is merely to present in a short and convenient form the substance of the views held by trustworthy authorities, and it is hoped that it may be found useful by those students who have either no time or no inclination to deal with more important works. Among the books of which most use has been made, are Mr.

  • Due out in Cities, Saints, and Scholars in Early Medieval Europe. Essays in Honour of Alan Thacker, Ed
    CEADWALLA AND WILFRID 1 Due out in Cities, Saints, and Scholars in Early Medieval Europe. Essays in honour of Alan Thacker, ed. S. deGregorio & P. J. E. Kershaw (Turnhout: Brepols). King Ceadwalla and Bishop Wilfrid Richard Sharpe The short career of King Ceadwalla in Wessex was a bloody business, perhaps right up to the point when he left England for Rome, where he was baptized by Pope Sergius on Holy Saturday, 10 April 689. Ten days later he was buried at St Peter’s basilica, and Bede would publish his Roman epitaph.1 Was this a great success-story for the Christian mission, a triumphant conversion, crowned by baptism at the hands of the pope and unblemished death in the white surplice of baptism? William of Malmesbury and Henry of Huntingdon in the twelfth century, both of them reading Bede as their chief witness, interpreted Ceadwalla’s career in a heroic light.2 They saw his life through his death in albis in Rome. Such a reading has endured. In commenting on his gifts of land made to churches, Dorothy Whitelock wrote, ‘At the time when Ceadwalla made these grants he had not yet been baptized, but this was not out of hostility to the Christian faith, but because he wished his baptism to take place in Rome’.3 Ceadwalla was not hostile to 1 Bede, HE V 7; G.

  • The Eagle 1902 (Lent)
    .. r Lmt Term, 1901. NOTES FROM THE COLLEGE RECORDS. (Continued from p. 25.) HE letters here printed relate to Shrewsbury School. They carry on the history of the dispute between the College and the Corpor­ ation from the point at which we arrived in Vol. xxii, p. 32 I . It will be remembered that the Corporation of Shrewsbury, in defiance of the rights of the College under the Ordinances governing the School, had nom­ inated Mr Owen to be Headmaster. The College took the matter before the Court of Exchequer and was successful in asserting its rights. The decree of the Court was made on 16 May 171.6 (see Eagle, xx, p. 500). The Corporation of Shrewsbury after some deliberation appealed to the House of Lords, where however they Were unsuccessful. The letters here given cover the early stages of the case and extend very nearly to the date of the final appeal.
