First of all, I would like to express my gratitude to all those who were able and willing to take part in the recent ‘Alive in Faith’ Diocesan Fundraising Initiative which began in 2015 and was completed shortly after Easter 2017. I am grateful to the many priests, deacons and lay faithful, for their commitment, hard work, prayer and generosity which have made the initiative so successful in many different ways.

In practical terms it will enable us as a Diocese to commit to the training of our 13 seminarians and those who will discern their vocation in the future. It will also help us to support our retired and sick priests in the best possible way. It has enabled parishes to begin projects to help them to carry out the mission of the Church locally. And it has also provided us with a fund for ‘Caritas East Anglia’ which will support all we are doing in our service and help of the poorest and most vulnerable in our Diocese, including those parish initiatives which are already involved in this mission.

The response to ‘Alive in Faith’ was a massive Yes! to the future of our Diocese. But it must, of course, be firmly planted in our call to mission – to bring the joy and mercy of the Gospel to the people of East Anglia.

New initiatives in the Diocese are assisting us in this call:

The diocesan Youth Mission Team has taken on a new life. Much new work is being done to help our young people discover for themselves the joy of knowing Christ. Last year’s Ignite Festival weekend, drew over 200 young people to celebrate their faith together and to encounter Jesus Christ in a profound way. Each parish needs to continue to support these young people and help them to grow – they are the present and the future of the Church.

The two-year programme for diocesan catechists, begun last September, will help to renew their own faith and understanding and give them confidence to hand on the faith to our young people as they prepare them for the Sacraments. The new programmes and materials for Sacramental Preparation, prepared by our Catechetical Commission, are now being rolled out across the Diocese.

The diocesan marriage preparation programme, So Great a Mystery, prepared by the Marriage and Family Life Commission in response to ’ call for greater and even remote preparation for marriage, is helping priests and those who are preparing couples to understand and live out the Christian understanding of this Sacrament.

All our work and mission, all of our outreach, is to bring Jesus Christ and his love and mercy, to others. As we pursue this mission, so our own lives and hearts will be touched and deepened by Jesus Christ whom we will discover in those we serve.

Finally, I would like to thank all those who have had a part in the publication of this Year Book. It is also a record of the mission of the Diocese.

Rt Rev , Bishop of East Anglia T

The Ignite Team - the Youth Mission Team of the Diocese of East Anglia - is growing.

I Joining Hamish MacQueen (Director of Diocesan Youth Service) and Catherine (Cat) Williams (Team Leader) are Fr Luke Goymour and Ciaran Losasso.

Fr Luke has been appointed full-time chaplain to the Diocesan Youth Service, and much of his ministry will be as part of the Ignite Team. He is particularly excited about visiting young people in their parishes.

"We are a Mission Team,” he said. “That sense of being 'sent' to preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ is central to our make-up. It's a real privilege to be sent into parishes and schools to share with the young peo- ple of our diocese the best news ever - That God loves them, and wants to have a relationship with them!”

Also joining Fr Luke is Ciaran Losasso who comes from Norwich and became more involved in youth work in the Diocese after World Youth Day in 2016. He joined the volunteer ‘Ignite Lite’ team and from there became a full-time member as a ‘gap year’ after studying history at UEA.

“I feel that it is a great blessing to be given this opportunity to serve young people and the Church on the Ignite Team,” said Ciaran when asked about taking on this new role.

“It is so special to be able to play just a part in helping others to encounter Jesus and the Good News that He brings, and that we all so desperately need in our lives. It is even more of a privilege to be able to do this among the people and places I grew up around.”

As members of the Ignite Team, they will continue to spread the Gospel message throughout the Diocese of East Anglia working in both parishes and schools running retreat days, youth groups and Confirmation / First Holy Communion classes.

They will also continue to run events such as the Ignite Festival and other events they are planning to launch throughout 2017 and 2018. Having Fr Luke as part of the Ignite Team also enables them to offer greater availability of the Sacraments such as Youth Masses.

“We are really blessed to have such a strong team this year and I am so excited about what we are able to do in bringing the Gospel message to young people in East Anglia,” said Hamish. 52 Features Centenary Mass starts cause for Suffolk hero’s sainthood

A Memorial Requiem Mass to celebrate the life of humanitarian and philanthropist Leonard Cheshire took place on September 7, 2017, the centenary of his birth, in his home village of Cavendish, Suffolk.

I The Mass, which was celebrated by Bishop Alan, also marked the start of a campaign by the Diocese of East Anglia to promote his Cause, the first step to canonization as a saint, and was attended by his two children, Jeromy and Elizabeth.

Leonard, who died in 1992, is best known for his work creating hundreds of homes around the world to care for disabled and vulnerable people, much of it with his wife Lady Sue Ryder. He was also an outstanding war-time leader and pilot who was awarded the VC. He converted to Catholicism at the age of 31.

After the Mass, daughter Elizabeth Cheshire said: “It was an absolutely lovely and really moving Mass and a very nice and personal homily from a priest who knew Dad in his last few years. He would have been very surprised and humbled by the canonization process. He was a really good man and was always motivated by a Portrait of Leonard Cheshire by June desire to do what was right and do the Mendoza. things that needed to be done. He was also a truly spiritual person and had a very deep faith. He lived his life through his faith and everything he did in the years that I knew him was guided by that faith.”

Fr James Fyfe, who is promoting the Cause of Leonard (which was first begun by Fr Michael Johnstone), explained: “It means to begin to try to collect any evidence for saint- hood from among the faithful. There is a prayer card which invites people to pray to Leonard for a particular reason. If the prayers are answered then evidence is collected, examined and presented. This does not mean that we already think he is a saint - that part is a very long way off and it may be 50 or 100 years hence - it is a discovery process.

“Bishop Alan and the Diocese are embarking on the process because Leonard lived in Cavendish. But he is a world-wide figure and many people will be praying for the success of the Cause and we shall reach out to them. However, we shall begin in East Anglia first because there are people here who knew him and remember him and who may have something to tell us.”

Anyone interested in the cause, or wanting a prayer card, is invited to contact: Fr James Fyfe, 69 Queen’s Road, Wisbech, PE13 2PH. Details of answered prayers should be sent to Leonard Cheshire Cause c/o The White House, 21 Upgate, Poringland, NR14 7SH. Features 53 Campaign makes faith come alive

The Alive in Faith campaign has raised pledges of £6.5m across the Diocese of East Anglia to help fund parish projects, social outreach, clergy pensions and seminarian training. One project already in action provides accommodation for the homeless in Sheringham. Fr Denys Lloyd reports.

I Parishioners from Our Lady and St Joseph, Sheringham and Cromer, raised a magnificent total of around £185,000 in pledges over five years through Alive in Faith and a proportion of that money comes back to us to fund our own parish projects.

For us that means the on-going mainte- nance of our buildings, but primarily the provision of accommodation and care for the temporarily homeless at Canaan House, in Holt Road, Sheringham.

The seven-room house is owned by an Evangelical Christian Trust. Its original purpose was to provide very low-cost holiday accommodation; but latterly the demand for this accommodation more or less petered out. The Trust has allowed us to rent Canaan House – in the name of the North Norfolk SVP (St Vincent De Paul) Conference, which is based in our parish.

We have a first-class social worker, Joey Garande (pictured above), who oversees the whole process of admissions to the house. All potential residents are referred to us by local authorities and Joey has been very successful in obtaining relevant Social Security Benefits for them. Out of this money, rent is paid to the Trustees of Canaan House.

Through the Alive in Faith funds, we are able to pay Joey’s salary, as well as, on occasion, providing one-off financial assistance to residents as needs arise. As parish priest, I see Joey regularly and I have been most impressed by his professional and business-like approach to the project.

Joey has now very nearly achieved his goal of making the house self-financing (through Social Security Benefits). There is also a paid caretaker, who lives in a static caravan on site and is always available to help the residents and sort out day-to-day issues. Normally there are about 12 residents in the house at any one time using a family room and both double and single rooms. Any room left vacant is normally almost immediately occupied again. On one occasion earlier this year there was a total of 22 men, women and children in the house; but such a number is exceptional.

The house is safe and peaceful (potential residents have to show that they are not ad- dicted to alcohol or drugs). The average stay is between 12 and 16 weeks: that is the time taken for suitable, secure and permanent accommodation to be found for residents. 54 Features Historic place for pilgrim retreat

For over 500 years Dowry House in Walsingham has been used as a pilgrim hostel and in early 2017 this purpose was restored by the Shrine when it reopened as a retreat house run by the Community of Our Lady of Walsingham.

I The Community was founded in the Slipper Chapel on the Feast of the Epiphany, January 6, 2004, with the aim of living and spreading the spirituality of Walsingham in-depth. As an ecclesial family of consecrated life, membership is open to people from all states of life.

Meanwhile, in 2006, Peter Hoye bought Dowry House and began renovating it to update the retreat centre for modern-day pilgrims. His dream was to have a religious community living on-site, praying in the chapel and offering hospitality. In 2016, he generously passed over the management of the retreat house to the shrine and Bishop Alan invited the Community to run it: “for the shrine, for the diocese and for the nation”.

Known affectionately to many as ‘the old Sue Ryder place’ Dowry House is situated directly opposite the Priory Gatehouse in the High Street. Built between 1470 and 1496, the twelfth-century Augustinian Priory used it as a pilgrim hostel, providing hearty meals and warm lodgings. During the 15th Century, Walsingham enjoyed the reputation of being one of the world’s most renowned shrines and pilgrims came from far and wide.

The religious landscape of England changed dramatically during the Reformation of King Henry VIII and at one point the house’s cellars were used to house two martyrs who were hung, drawn and quartered the following day.

After the Reformation, the building underwent a series of evolutions as it was used for dif- ferent purposes: for trading businesses, a post office, a coffee shop and accommodation. Features 55

The exterior of the building, facing onto the High Street, was given a brick façade in the 19th century. More recently, in 1982, Sue Ryder purchased it to provide a retreat house for her staff in this quiet, grace-filled place known as England’s Nazareth.

A range of formation courses and retreats for those seeking to deepen their faith are now offered at Dowry House.

It has 17 beautifully furnished bedrooms that can hold up to 26 guests, for whom all meals are provided. The Welcome Centre at the entrance offers resources for passing pilgrims to have a fruitful time in Walsingham and the gardens are being developed to provide outdoor prayer spaces for residential guests.

The Julian Library holds a Marian collection of some 3,000 books ranging from art and history through to mystical theology. The Beckett Room is a reading room where residents can relax and the St Edward’s Conference Room, with its media facilities, sits larger groups of 30 plus for seminars. The cloister of the courtyard joins the main building to the Chapel. Factfile

Sr Camilla, the leader of the community, said: “Walsingham is a place where pilgrims can be held by Mary and led by her to a knowledge of the Father’s infinite love for each one of us. We are invited to bring our somewhat broken spirits to be healed by God through her intercession.

“Dowry House Retreat is a place for people to come and recharge their spiritual batter- ies, to attend one of the many formation courses being organised by the Shrine, to do an individually guided retreat or just to come away and rest a while with the Lord.

“We hope that, for anyone visiting, it will be a grace-filled and a life-defining experience. By discovering all that Walsingham has to offer for the spiritual journey we hope people may leave with the desire to come back again and again.” 56 Obituaries

Fr Bill Mason (1928-2017)

Tributes have been paid to Fr Bill Mason, first ordained as an Anglican Priest, who went on to join the Catholic Church and serve in Suffolk.

I “Fr Bill” was born William Hugh Owen Mason on July 27, 1928 at Kersey in Suffolk where his mother was the first district nurse to work in that area and his father was a tenant farmer.

He won a scholarship to King Henry VII Grammar school at Sudbury and had the distinction of being Head Boy and Captain of Cricket. He followed his brother into the Indian Army followed by National Service in the Middle East. Oxford University followed and while there, Bill discovered his vocation and went from university to Cuddesdon Theological College.

Bill was ordained as an Anglican Deacon on Trinity Sunday 1954 at St George’s Cathedral Southwark and as an Anglican Priest on Trinity Sunday 1955. He served at All Saints, Dulwich, St Barnabas, Northolt Park and St Mary Magdalene, Munster Square as a before being given his own parish at St Clement, Notting Dale. After several years he returned to his native Suffolk and was appointed as Vicar at St Mary’s, Little Wratting. He stayed there briefly before going to Walsingham as Assistant Administrator of the Anglican Shrine.

Following his marriage to Christine in 1972, he went to the Parish of Ss Peter & Paul at Keddington. There he served as Rector for 15 happy years during which time his children, Lucy, Ben and Joe were born. In 1987, Bill took the courageous decision to be received into Full Communion with the Catholic Church, giving up the Rectory at Keddington and his income as an Anglican clergyman.

Owing to an administrative error, it took five years to gain permission from the Congregation for the Defence of the Faith in Rome for Bill, as a married man, to be ordained as a Catholic priest. In that intervening period, Bill showed a remarkable faithfulness to his priestly vocation, and trust in God's providence. Whilst maintaining the priestly discipline of the Divine Office he worked as an assistant to a Funeral Director, and immersed himself in parish life in Bury St Edmunds, not the least enriching the choir with his fine singing voice.

On April 3, 1993, he was ordained a priest, and the presence of a crowded church testified to the esteem in which he was held by the Catholic congregation of Bury St Edmunds, his friends and his colleagues from the past. He placed his priesthood unreservedly at the service of any who needed it, whether lay or clerical, and his unsophisticated wisdom and experience quickly won him a wide circle of admirers and friends. His skill in the confessional was legendary. In the last few years when ill-health might have been a valid excuse for scaling down he soldiered on, ably supported by the devoted care of Christine and he died on October 31, 2017 at the age of 89.

Fr Augustine Hoey (1915-2017)

Monsignor Augustine Hoey, a priest of the Diocese of Westminster, who lived in Walsingham for some years to pray for and support the work of the Shrine and for unity among Christians, has died at the age of 101. He was a well-known and loved figure. Fr Denys Lloyd pays tribute.

I The words of the Short Chapter at None, as Fr Augustine spoke them in the Community Church at Mirfield in probably 1962 or 1963, have been with me ever since: “Bear one another’s burdens and so fulfil the law of Christ.”

I was then a student at the College of the Resur- rection and those words have been a compass to my ministry ever since. I am sure it was then and always has been the depth of his prayer and closeness to God that again and again lent to Fr Augustine’s words a penetrating power and authority.

When I was a member of staff at the College of the Resurrection – from 1969 until I was received into the Catholic Church in 1990 – I spent substantial parts of many college vacations at the ‘House of Prayer’ Fr Augustine established - first in a flat in Hulme, Manchester and then in a redundant vicarage in .

Fr Augustine’s remarkable, and in a sense quite ruthless, dedication to God showed itself in his attention to fine detail, not only in the creation of the carefully typed and indexed office books we used, but also in the very simple, but uniformly elegant décor of both the flat in Hulme and also the house - ‘Emmaus’ – in Sunderland.

Fr Augustine’s manner of celebrating the Eucharist, spoke eloquently of his wonder and awe before the majesty of God. Occasionally, in the 1960s, he was invited to be the cele- brant at the College Eucharist - every move, every gesture was done with a striking grace. Even in his old age, his back remained ram-rod straight when he genuflected. It was not for nothing that his mother had been on the stage.

And years later, when, as a Catholic, he was living the ‘life of prayer’ in Walsingham and he was approaching his 100th birthday, he still concelebrated daily at the Church of the Annunciation in the village. When it was his turn to read the Gospel, it was evident that, without a shadow of doubt, for him this truly was ‘the Word of God’.

Aged 99 he was given the title of . A memoir, Trembling on the Edge of Eternity, by Antony Pinchin and Graeme Jolly, was published in 2015.

One of my last memories of Fr Augustine is of how his words resonated with an extra- ordinary, penetrating power. What he said at the end of the Mass for his 100th birthday in the Reconciliation Chapel at Walsingham was his ‘last word’ on his passion for the restoration of Christian unity. Before the blessing, he moved forward from his place as a concelebrant, and with a voice that seemed as strong as when he preached parish mis- sions in the 50s and 60s, he expressed his horror at the ‘scandal’ that shamed the place he loved so much – the scandal of separation and disunity at Walsingham: Mary still being honoured at two separate Shrines. “This scandal must cease! – we must pray…” 58 Obituaries

Fr Anthony Slack (1941-2016)

Parish priest Fr Anthony Slack will be remembered for his dedication to parishioners in Whittlesey and Ramsey and a dry sense of humour. Bernard Whyte pays tribute.

I Fr Anthony (Les) Slack retired in August 2016 at the age of 75 after 16 years as the Parish Priest of St Jude’s Whittlesey and The Sacred Heart, Ramsey.

In November 2016, he had a sudden brain hemorrhage and died within a very short space of time. His funeral was held at Ratcliffe College, Leicestershire where he had spent many years as a tutor. Requiem Masses were also celebrated at Whittlesey and Ramsey.

Fr Slack was born in Manchester, and at the age of 13, became a student to Ratcliffe College which was run by members of the Rosminian Order, (Institute of Charity). At the age of 18 he was inducted into the Order and was ordained into the priesthood at St John’s, Wonersh at the age of 23.

After a short time as an assistant priest in Cardiff, he returned to Ratcliffe where he became a tutor for the next 30 years. Having served the Whittlesey/Ramsey parish as a locum for some years, he was appointed Parish Priest in 2000 where he remained till his retirement. He was one of a number of Rosminian Priests supporting the Diocese at that time.

He was well known by his parishioners for his love of Latin, and for the singing of hymns at every opportunity. When not looking after the needs of the parish, he followed a deep interest in railways and would spend his free time exploring the rail routes of the British Isles. His knowledge in this respect was outstanding. He was beginning to enjoy a new- found interest in bridge before he died.

In his latter years in the parish, he did not enjoy the best of health, but looked forward to a more peaceful time at the Rosminian retirement home at Derryswood, Surrey. His retirement Mass was concelebrated by a number of Rosminians as well as priests from our diocese, and a most thoughtful homily was given by Fr David Myers. Canon David Bagstaff paid tribute to the dedication of Fr Slack to our parish and the diocese. He was also joined by clergy from other Christian denominations who had come to share in the service.

Fr Slack will be remembered for his dedication to his parishioners, and wry sense of humour which he shared over coffee after weekday Masses.

He will be fondly remembered in our prayers. May he rest in peace and rise in glory. Vocations 59 VOCATIONS

With five new candidates starting in seminaries across Europe in September, the Diocese of East Anglia now has 12 men training for the priesthood, the highest number for at least 30 years. Vocations Director Fr Patrick Cleary reports.

The dozen men vary from those who just started in September 2017, to those who hopefully, will be ordained fairly soon.

We have men in six seminaries, across three different countries (Italy, Spain and England). Thanks to the financial support that the Diocese is receiving from the successful Alive in Faith programme we are now able to sustain this number of seminarians. The annual collection for the training of new priests raises enough, from across the diocese, to pay the fees and expenses for just one seminarian.

As the vocations director, it's my responsibility, to accompany young men through the process from early and noncommittal enquiries to ordination.

Part of my responsibility is to visit each seminary, and indeed each seminarian, at least once during the academic year.

Bishop Alan places seminarians in various parishes for pastoral experiences during the summer break and during other periods according to the seminaries' requirements.

This is a huge change from my time as a seminarian, when we spent the summer months working in various capacities in the secular world. My experiences included working on a farm, in a shop, in a factory, cutting grass verges for the local county council and running a pitch-and-putt golf course. On one stormy evening, when no customers materialised, I managed a hole-in-one, but who is going to believe me!

We also had a much lower profile in the life of the diocese. Often, the first that people knew that we were training for the priesthood, was the announcement of the date of our ordination. Now, the progress and activities of our seminarians is charted in various diocesan communications, especially in the pages of Catholic East Anglia, our diocesan paper. Our seminarians also feature prominently in various diocesan celebrations, liturgies and events.

These days, it's common for applicants to approach the diocese in early middle life, having had some experience, in the world of work, or indeed some experience of time spent in a religious order.

The average age of our seminarians is probably in the 30s rather than the 20s. Each one, brings some particular experience to their vocation, which I'm sure will be beneficial to the diocese in the years ahead.

This is an interesting diocese in terms of the variety of parishes. We have large city parishes, market town parishes and coastal parishes from King’s Lynn to Felixstowe. We try to give the seminarians exposure to all of the various types of parishes during their years of preparation.

We went for many years with no seminarians at all and are presently blessed with our very Biblical team of 12, with all their talents and variety. Please remember them in your prayers. 60 Vocations Vocations – Sr Carina Sr Carina, from the small Community of Our Lady of Walsingham, tells her own Jesus story.

I This is the story of how I fell in love with the Risen Christ: how he chose me before I chose him; how he had been there all along as my Bridegroom, patiently loving me and waiting for me, until I opened my eyes in the darkness and saw him looking straight at me.

I was raised a Catholic and grew up wanting to know Jesus, but never experienced a personal relationship with him. The pull of the world’s distractions anaesthetised this heartache, and I allowed myself to be swept away in the rushing surge of exams, UCAS, socialising and culti- vating an identity… all without Jesus.

It was only ever the Holy Spirit that really had a look-in on my life of faith: he faithfully responded to my emer- gency calls, either for inspiration in the exam hall, or for inner fortitude for a challenging conversation. Truthfully, I gave up expecting any deep experience of closeness to God. Sr Carina, left, makes her First Profession of I wanted to become a fashion- Vows alongside Sr Johanna. magazine editor and I had planned my perfect life… right up until retirement. It never occurred to me to ask God what dreams he had for my life as everything was going according to my plan. When I went to my first-choice university, I felt like I was living the dream. When my grandfather died unexpectedly at the end of Freshers’ Week, however, I struggled to process my grief. I was driven by the apprehension that if I stopped, I would be crushed by the stampede of deadlines and commitments. I had erroneously equated productivity with self-worth, yet I had lost my very self in the process.

Deep down my heart screamed with conviction that this wasn’t true life, surely this wasn’t how I was meant to be living. But everything around me told me I was living my dream life… So what was my heart still searching for?

I had stopped attending regular Sunday Mass and was feeling disillusioned with the Catholic Church. I started attending a close friend’s Evangelical Church and bought my own Bible that I read on a daily basis. Jesus’ words in Mark 8:35 gave me fresh hope: “For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake and for the gospel will save it.”

With every fibre of my being, I wanted this true Life that Jesus promised. I had a growing desire to live intentionally; conscious of how I would live “this one wild and precious life” Vocations 61

(Mary Oliver) I had been given, what I would do with it and what I would leave behind. I had a firm resolution that this life I have cannot be wasted: it has to be used for something, contribute some good, mean something…

By summer, I was contemplating leaving the Catholic Church. My mother was horrified. She persuaded me to watch the BBC documentary ‘The Big Silence’. As I saw each retreatant have a profoundly personal encounter with the divine, my heart began to soften with painful surrender as I realised that I did not have all the answers.

Feeling very much like the prodigal son, I began to attend fortnightly Taize prayer meetings and even took part in a week-long ‘Retreat in Daily Life.’ My eyes were opening up to the treasures held within Catholicism: the Church was offering me the means for a powerful depth of intimacy with God. I wanted to find God in the silence.

I did, however, balk at the thought that this would entail conforming to an institutionalised religion – and worst of all, to the inherited faith I had sought to reject. In my stubbornness of spirit, I resolved to carve out my own path, convincing myself that I was walking towards freedom. I was drawn to a local meditation centre, which advocated a spirituality based on Hindu and New Age concepts.

I was also reading articles on the Taize website. When I came upon the words, “There are also those who ask themselves how they can follow Christ by choosing the road of celibacy,” I was shaken by the sensation that God was speaking to me directly. It was as though he were pointing a finger at the screen and saying ‘Carina, that’s for you.’

As part of my degree, I studied the writings of St Teresa of Avila and her ‘Book of Life’ convinced me of the powerful truth that God is real, personal and immediate. Contrary to the meditation centre’s ideology, I could not accept that Jesus was anything less than fully human and fully divine! My heart soared as the wrestling with my angel slowly became a dance with Christ, the Beloved. I no longer rejected the call to consecrated life as some- thing shameful, but instead saw it as a privilege – chosen by the Father to be the spouse of his only Son, the King of Kings.

I no longer attended Mass on a ‘Sundays-only’ basis, but needed to quench my thirst in Communion almost every day. In the Eucharist, I saw the immense power of Jesus’ love and his beauty overwhelmed me: I wanted to give everything to the one who had given me everything. I wanted to live with purpose in such a way that I was saying with my life: Jesus, you did not die in vain for me upon that cross. I surrendered to the beauty and freedom of spiritual motherhood and I could finally accept that having my own family would never be enough for me. I longed to proclaim with my life that Jesus is enough, by living a life that could only be sustained by his grace. The life that I had fabricated out of my own self-will was no longer my dream: he had become all that I longed for and thought about. I realised with joy that my heart had found what it was looking for.

I came across the Community of Our Lady of Walsingham online, its motto, ‘called to the fullness of life and love,’ resonated deeply and I strongly identified with the vocation to a life lived ‘intensely with God and intensely with people’ (as symbolised by COLW’s hood!) This vocation was written in my bones.

In COLW’s charism and spirituality, all the inexpressible longings of my heart had the po- tential to be fulfilled. The real adventure was just beginning! When I visited the community for the first time, I experienced pure joy – like the leap of joy at the Visitation when St John the Baptist recognizes Jesus in the womb of Our Lady. I knew intuitively that it would be here, in Mary’s little community, that my true self would meet the true God.

I Sr Carina made her First Profession of Vows on the Feast of the Annunciation, 2017. 62 Vocations Vocations – Jaylord Magpuyo

Seminarian Jaylord Magpuyo became the first-ever Filippino to be ordained as a deacon in the Diocese of East Anglia on January 25 at OLEM in Cambridge. Here is his own vocation story.

I “like one of your hired hands”. Luke 15:19 This response of the lost son in Luke has become a guiding principle in my response to God’s calling. On the one hand, it crystal- lizes the meaning of service for me. On the other, it shows the depth of God’s love.

I would consider my calling as nothing extraordinary. In fact, it is a simple one. There are no imposing signs which I could categorize as special. All I knew was to play basketball and chess and paint. I have taken the sport so seriously that I even skipped meals just to play the game and be with my friends. Such was my passion that I even intended to make chess a living.

But my plan is not God’s. I realized that everything has already been laid out for me and all was part of His plan. He used my feebleness to His gain. When accepting the invi- tation of my classmates to a three-day visit to the St Francis Xavier College Seminary, in Davao City, I found out there were lots of basketball courts inside and the seminarians play almost every day during their sports time. That made me interested.

After passing the entrance exam, I decided to try the seminary life for a year at the age of 16, and the year became years. But one thing I realized, God was slowly preparing and forming me to become not an athlete but a servant of His vineyard.

I finished my AB Philosophy degree and MA in Theology in 10 years all together, not including my pastoral and work assignments. But of course, the journey was not easy for it was long and winding. There were intermittent events along the way that have influenced my future decisions. I was admitted into the while finishing my theology at San Carlos Graduate School of Theology, Manila.

The experience was challenging, since I was trained to be a priest with a view to becom- ing a Military Chaplain. As I was about to graduate in theology, I discerned and prayed if this would be the life that God was leading me into.

Again, God hears my cry, like the psalmist used to pray. After much time spent in front of the Blessed Sacrament every day, I decided not to pursue the vocation in the military service and instead applied to the Diocese of East Anglia.

To be accepted by the Diocese and be ordained as a Deacon by the Bishop Alan is, for me, the will of God. To serve the Diocese with utmost devotion and steadfast generosity will be my lifelong commitment.

I Jaylord was due to be ordained as a priest at St John’s Cathedral on December 8. Building Bridges 63 Building Bridges together

Over the past 16 years, the Diocese of East Anglia is privileged to have formed special charitable relationships with two twin dioceses, the Latin Patriarchate of Jerusalem (the Holy Land) and the Apostolic Prefecture of Battambang (Cambodia).

As well as individual parishes and schools entering into twinning arrangements and supporting humanitarian projects within those partnerships, the Diocese has provided funding for a number of initiatives including house renovations, educational provision, medical support, catechetical initiatives, sponsoring of seminarians, university scholar- ships and music activities.

In the Holy Land, efforts are channelled through the Latin Patriarchate which has an established procedure for assessing funding re- quests and monitoring their delivery in order that the money raised is used to best effect. If you would like to know more about supporting a possible project from your parish, or as an individual or group; please contact Fr Paul Maddison at March parish, who has Fr Paul Maddison at the Holy Family Orphanage in responsibility for the Bethlehem, supported by the Diocese of East Anglia. relationship between the two dioceses.

THANK YOU TO YOU AND YOUR PARISH FOR THE SUPPORT YOU GIVE THE ST BARNABAS SOCIETY President Cardinal Vincent Nichols, Archbishop of Westminster

The Society exists to provide financial and pastoral help to former clergy, ministers and religious of other Christian communities who have been received into the full communion of the Catholic Church, and to their families.

When St Barnabas came and saw the grace of God, he was glad and exhorted them all to remain faithful to the Lord with steadfast purpose; for he was a good man, full of the Holy Spirit and of faith. Acts 11.23-24

If you know of anybody who may need our help, or if you can help yourself, please contact the Director

If you have a relative or a friend or are being admitted to hospital, please ensure that you indicate that you or they are a Catholic, and also would like the Catholic Chaplain to be informed of your presence in hospital. Otherwise, the Catholic Chaplain will not know that a Catholic patient is in the hospital. The secular authorities are not permitted to tell the Church if a patient is Catholic, and, according to secular rules and regulations, chaplains and parish priests are not permitted to communicate with one another regarding your presence in hospital without your permission. It is also good practice to inform hospital staff that you would like receive visitors, as some hospitals will not permit visitors who are not close family without prior permission from the patient.

Please inform: The hospital chaplain Your parish priest The nursing staff at the hospital upon arrival 110 Prisons Directory

Statement of the Trustees We confirm that the extracts are a summary of information relating to both the Statement of Financial Activities and Balance Sheet from the annual accounts. The annual accounts were approved at the Trustees Meeting on 28th September 2017 and have been submitted to the Charity Commission. The Auditors’ Report as given on the full accounts was unqualified. The Rt Rev Alan Hopes 28th September 2017

Auditors Statement to the Trustees of The Roman Catholic Diocese of East Anglia We have examined the summarised financial statements set out on this page.

Basis of opinion We have carried out the procedures we consider necessary to ascertain whether the summarised financial statements are consistent with the full financial statements from which they have been prepared.

Opinion In our opinion the summarised accounts are consistent with the full accounts of the Diocese for the year ended 31st December 2016. Price Bailey 28th September 2017

Notes to the Accounts 1. The Diocese of East Anglia is not wealthy. It has limited reserves or investments of its own, receives relatively small amounts through legacies and donations and has no means of raising income other than from its parishes. This it does by levying charges or quotas based as a percentage of parish offertory collections. The income which it receives is used to pay for the organisation and administration of all Diocesan activities, for the repairs and adaptations to its schools, for the training of future Diocesan priests and for all those services which are given to parishes without charge. Comments on some of these Diocesan activities, which are highlighted in the SOFA under “General Funds”, “Designated Funds”, or “Parochial Funds”, are included below.

2. The activities of the Diocese are largely undertaken through its parishes. Of the over- all diocesan finances, parishes account for over 83% of income and approximately 71% of expenditure with some 70% of the Diocesan charity’s net assets being held at parochial level. The work of the parishes involves amongst other things the pastoral care of the Roman Catholic and general community of the parish and maintenance and upkeep of places of worship.

3. A fund-raising campaign has been undertaken since February 2015 managed by the professional fund-raising company, CCS, which aims to provide funding for the following: I Training of future priests Financial Report 127

I Support of retired clergy I Special parish projects I Social outreach

During the year ended 31 December 2015, the project raised £123,441 from its trial phase in six parishes with total expenditure, including fundraiser’s costs for this period, being £205,563. Whilst a deficit is therefore reported in these accounts of £86,122, overall the campaign expects to raise £5.8 million over the next 5 years. Total fundraising costs over the five years are expected to be around 12% of the amount raised.

4. At 31 December 2016 the Diocese's reserves stood at £30.04m. Of this £1.63m is restricted to particular uses and £4.94m has been designated by the Trustees for certain specific purposes.

5. Of the remaining reserves parochial funds amount to £20.65m of which £14.23m is represented by fixed assets in the form of churches and other property which are required for the purposes of the Diocese and could not be realised without undermining its work. This leaves free parochial reserves of £6.42m which represents between one to two years’ total parochial expenditure and levy charges. This level of reserves is considered necessary by the Trustees to enable the parishes to conduct their work in an orderly and efficient manner as well as providing income through investments to supplement the amounts received by donations.

6. General reserves amount to £2.81m of which £0.68m is represented by fixed assets leaving free reserves of £2.13m. This is considered necessary in order for the Diocese to continue supporting and advising the parishes. The Trustees aim to maintain the Diocese's overall free reserves at least at the present level to continue to provide the support necessary for the Diocese to fulfil its objects 128 Second Collections SECOND COLLECTIONS FOR 2018

Those who belong, make a formal commitment to live out their baptismal prom- ises through the channel of the Grail and its mission. There are two ways of belonging: as members of the Grail Community, or as individual members Companions. All members seek to find God in their everyday life situations. Community members live together, expressing a simple, uncluttered and celibate life-style. They aim to be open, to heal and to release the gifts of those whom they meet. They are accountable to those with whom they live and see all that they undertake as enabling people to grow towards their full potential.

They meet regularly in area groups and aim to be alert to developments and needs in both Church and society so as to bring an informed response to daily situations. Companions and the Grail Community spend time together each year to share more deeply the ethos and mission of the Grail. See also Grail Society, below.

SPECIAL PROJECTS IN CHRISTIAN MISSIONARY AREAS For 50 years SPICMA has been reaching out to the poorest and most marginalized in the developing world. Small communities often lack the means of approaching the larger charities or their needs are too small for consideration by them. SPICMA has focused its work through missionary congregations and diocesan clergy, helping tens of thousands with development grants and emergency aid. This builds up the capacity of the local church as we realise the importance of faith and an effective partner on the ground. We have no offices and all of us are unpaid volunteers.

“Christ’s saving work is celebrated in sacred memory by the Church on fixed days throughout the course of the year. Each week on the day called the Lord’s Day the Church commemorates the Lord’s resurrection. Once a year at Easter the Church honours the resurrection of the Lord and his blessed passion with the utmost solemnity. In fact, through the yearly cycle the Church unfolds the entire mystery of Christ and keeps the anniversaries of the saints.” (GNLY 1)

Preliminary Notes

I This Calendar is based on the GENERAL ROMAN CALENDAR, the NATIONAL CALENDAR as contained in the Roman Missal (2010) and the revised DIOCESAN CALENDAR. I The titular and anniversary of dedication of each church are kept as Solemnities. Lest they be overlooked, it is advisable to mark them in this Calendar. I Local observances are permitted of Saints or Beati connected in some way with the locality, as through birth, ministry, death, or custody of major relics. The Bishop should be consulted in each instance. I On the ‘green’ ferias per annum (of the year) a wide choice of Mass formula is available: EITHER of any of the 34 Sundays per annum (with the prayers of the Sunday selected, or of another Sunday, or those provided ad diversa), OR of any Saint mentioned on that day in the Martyrology, OR of any votive Mass or Mass ad diversa, OR of any Mass for the dead (provided that the daily Mass formula is only used when the Mass is, in fact, applied for the dead). The Requiem Mass which forms part of the funeral rite is allowed on any day except the Paschal Triduum, the Sundays of Advent, Lent and Easter, and the Holydays of Obligation. I The Gloria is said on all Sundays (apart from Advent and Lent), Solemnities, Feasts, and other solemn celebrations, but not on Memorials. The Credo is said on Sundays and Solemnities, and is also allowed at other solemn celebrations. I THE LECTIONARY. On Sundays, Cycle B (Year 2) is to be used until the First Sunday of Advent, when Cycle C (Year 3) begins. The weekday readings are of Year 2. Attention is drawn to the section headed ‘Principles of Choice’ in the introduction. A decided preference is expressed for continuous readings, as provided for the weekdays throughout the year, even though a Memorial occurs (apart from the few instances noted in the Calendar of a strictly proper reading). The 1981 Lectionary provides readings for Feasts observed in this country (Vol II, pp 1316 and fol). For other Solemnities and Feasts lacking proper readings, the appropriate Common should be used, while suitable readings may be chosen for special celebrations. I As Eucharistic Prayer IV must always be used with its own preface, the days on which it may not be used have been indicated by the note ‘Not EP IV’. The Eucharistic Prayer for Masses for Various Needs and Eucharistic Prayers for Reconciliation also have integral prefaces, and may not be used on Sundays or days when EP IV is not permitted. I Parish priests are bound to offer Mass for their people on all Sundays and Holydays of Obligation. I The necrology includes all clergy of the former Northampton Diocese from the year 146 Diocesan Calendar 1850. Places in parenthesis are where priests died or retired from. Any errors or omissions in the necrology of diocesan clergy should be notified to the Bishop’s Personal Assistant.

NATIONAL CYCLE OF PRAYER

Introduction

In the Catholic tradition the human experience of time is used as a way of engaging us with the saving mystery of Christ’s passion, death and resurrection. The cycle of days, weeks and the whole year is, for this reason, of supreme importance in Christian worship.

Each week, on the day called the Lord’s Day, the Church commemorates the Lord’s resurrection. Once a year, at Easter, the Church honours this resurrection and passion with the utmost solemnity. Through the yearly cycle the Church unfolds the entire mystery of Christ and keeps the anniversary of the saints.

All other celebrations need to find their proper place in the Calendar so that the principal mysteries of the redemption do not lose their appropriate prominence.

Amongst these other celebrations, from the earliest times have been the rogation and ember days, days of prayer for particular need or in thanksgiving for particular blessings of the Lord. Since 1972, the Bishops’ Conference of England and Wales has preferred to drop all distinction between ember and rogation days, and to speak simply of Days of special prayer.

In 1972, six such days were introduced, but in the years which followed the number of such days increased to such an extent that they risked intruding on the celebration of the liturgical year, and especially on the celebration of the Lord’s Day on Sundays. Subsequently the Bishops’ Conference concluded that from Advent 1996 these Days of special prayer be subsumed into and replaced by a Cycle of Prayer.

The Cycle of Prayer seeks to preserve the integrity of the Sunday liturgy, without losing sight of the importance of being united with the universal or local Church in praying and working for important intentions. It seeks to do this be encouraging the faithful to pray for the intentions set out in the Cycle in their personal prayers throughout the period specified, and not only at Mass on a particular day.

The Cycle of Prayer is based on a division of the year into six periods, three of these being the principal liturgical seasons of Advent/Christmas; Lent and Easter and the other three periods being divisions of Ordinary Time, namely Winter, Summer and Autumn.

Each of these six periods is allocated its proper series of intentions for prayer, which may be taken up by both individuals and parishes and other groups throughout the season. Each individual intention also has its particular focal point, ie a particular celebration or Day of Prayer ordered by the Holy See.

How might a parish keep the Cycle of Prayer?

Outside of the Liturgy

I Intentions for the whole period might be listed in the parish newsletter or printed on a prayer card so as to help individual parishioners keep in mind and pray for the intentions for that period. Diocesan Calendar 147

I Publicity and informational material might be displayed on parish noticeboards. I Prayer-focuses may be placed in an appropriate place in the Church – following the example of the candle symbol popularised by Amnesty International. I Parish meetings might be arranged so as to better inform parishioners about the particular objects of the intention (eg peace, Christian unity, the place and role of women in the Church and the world, the sick, sea-farers, racial justice, prisoners and their families). This will also give the opportunity for parishioners to learn how they might become actively involved in working for the fulfilling of the intentions for which they pray. I Retiring collections might be taken to support particular forms of pastoral activity.

Within the Liturgy

Mass

I On the Day of Special Prayer itself, and especially on Sundays, it is appropriate to announce the Day of Special Prayer in the opening remarks at the beginning of Mass, and for the special intention to be included in the Prayer of the Faithful (Bidding Prayers). Care should be taken that the remaining petitions of the Prayer of the Faithful should be formulated in accordance with the norms given in the General Instruction of the Roman Missal. I When a Day of Prayer or other observance falls on a Sunday, the Mass and Lectionary texts of the Sunday are normally to be used. I On weekdays the use of suitable ‘Masses for Various Needs and Occasions’ or ‘Votive Masses’ should be considered to support the marking of the Day of Prayer. The readings assigned for each day in the Lectionary for weekdays should not be omitted too frequently and without sufficient reason. It is often more fruitful to explore any special intentions through the readings assigned to the day, than to choose from the Common those which may appear at first sight more appropriate to the intention. I The homily at Mass is necessary for the nurturing of the Christian life. It should develop some aspect of the readings from the scriptural readings or liturgical texts of the Mass, while taking into account the mystery being celebrated or the needs proper to the listeners. The homily should not be narrowly confined to the intention of the Cycle of Prayer alone, nor be replaced by a non-homiletic talk or an appeal for money.

Other Liturgies and Celebrations

I When it is desired to have a form of extended prayer for one of the intentions in the Cycle of Prayer, serious consideration should be given to holding a special non- eucharistic service for that purpose, such as a Vigil, the Evening Prayer of the Church, a Liturgy of the Word, or a procession with litanies. I Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament, ‘which must clearly express the cult of the Blessed Sacrament in its relationship to the Mass’, should also be considered. It should be noted that there is specific provision within this rite for special prayers. I When considering how particular intentions are to be presented and marked within a parish, every effort should be made to extend the invitation to participate in this to all members of the parish, including the younger members of the parish, and the housebound.

Each of the 51 parishes within the Diocese of East Anglia will be allocated one week during the year during which to pray, not only for the Intentions of the National Cycle of Prayer, but also for Vocations to the Priesthood and to the Religious Life, and the Needs and Intentions of the Diocese. During this week, each Parish shall also have the opportunity to celebrate 40 Hours of Eucharistic Adoration, including as they do so, the specific prayers and initiatives of the New Evangelisation. 148 January - Diocesan Calendar JANUARY 2018

THE NATIONAL CYCLE OF PRAYER

During Ordinary Time – (Winter) i.e. up to Lent, we are asked to pray for these intentions:

Peace on Earth: especially on 2nd Sunday in Ordinary Time and on Racial Justice Day which occurs three Sundays before the 1st Sunday of Lent. The World Day of Prayer for Peace is marked on 1 January. As this day is when the Church celebrates the Solemnity of Mary Mother of God and it is the beginning of the new year in England, the day is transferred to 2nd Sunday in Ordinary Time. There may be a collection on this day for the work of Pax Christi. The day of prayer for Racial Justice is organised by the ecumenical Churches’ Commission for Racial Justice. Within the Catholic Church material is distributed by Catholic Association for Racial Justice (CARJ) for whom a collection may be taken on this day. Diocesan Calendar - January 149

Prayer: O God of peace, who is peace itself and whom a spirit of discord cannot grasp, nor a violent mind receive, grant that those who are one in heart may persevere in what is good and that those in conflict may forget evil and so be healed. Roman Missal

Christian Unity: especially during the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity: 18–25 January. The Week of was originally begun in 1908 by the American Episcopalian clergyman Paul Wattson who later became a Catholic. The Week begins on 18 January and ends on 25 January—the Feast of the Conversion of St Paul. Material for the Week of Prayer is prepared in collaboration by Pontifical Council for Promoting Christian Unity and The Commission on Faith and Order of the World Council of Churches. Each year this material is produced by Christians in a different country.

Prayer: May the divisions among Christians be overcome so that we may hasten to your eternal Kingdom in the perfect communion of the Church cf. Roman Missal

Victims of Trafficking: especially on feast of St Josephine Bakhita — 8 February. St Josephine Bakhita is the Sudanese Saint who at the age of nine was kidnapped and sold into slavery. She suffered terribly at the hands of her kidnappers so much so that she forgot her birth name. Her kidnappers gave her the name ‘Bakhita’ which means ‘Fortunate’.

Prayer O God, who led Saint Josephine Bakhita from abject slavery to the dignity of being your daughter and a bride of Christ, grant, we pray, that by her example we may show constant love for the Lord Jesus crucified, remaining steadfast in charity and prompt to show compassion. Roman Missal

The Sick and Those Who Care for Them: especially on World Day of Prayer for the Sick — 11 February. 11 February is the feast of Our Lady of Lourdes. On this the Church is asked to pray and give attention to the sick and those who care for them. Each year the Holy Father writes a message.

Prayer Accept the prayers we offer for our brothers and sisters who are ill, that, having been anxious for them in their danger, we may rejoice at their recovery of health. cf. Roman Missal

The Unemployed: especially on the Sunday before Ash Wednesday. The Day of Prayer for the Unemployed was organised by Church Action on Poverty. They have recently renamed their day as Poverty Action Sunday. Caritas-Social Action is the agency in the Catholic Church which acts an umbrella for many diocesan and local organisations concerned with poverty and other social issues.

Prayer O God, the source of human dignity, in your image every person is fashioned and by your Son all people are redeemed. Make us honour the work of your hands, that we may reverence you in those whom the world considers least and serve you in all whom society neglects. 150 January - Diocesan Calendar

THE NATIONAL CYCLE OF PRAYER

During Lent we are asked to pray for these intentions:

Candidates for the Sacraments: especially on the Sundays of Lent

For those preparing to be initiated into the Church at Easter, Lent marks the final stage of preparation, the period of Purification and Enlightenment. It begins with the Rite of Election on the First Sunday of Lent. During the season of Lent the Scrutinies are celebrated on the 3rd, 4th and 5th Sundays in preparation for Baptism, Confirmation and Eucharist at the Easter Vigil. Many parishes will also receive candidates for Reception into the Church.

‘The people of God, as represented by the local Church, should understand and show by their concern that the initiation of adults is the responsibility of all the baptised.’

‘During Lent, the period of purification and enlightenment, the faithful should take care to participate in the rites of the scrutinies and presentations and give the elect the example of their own renewal in the spirit of penance, faith, and charity. At the Easter Vigil, they should attach great importance to renewing their own baptismal promises.’ RCIA 9

The celebration of other Sacraments, such as Confirmation and First Holy Communion, will often take place within the Easter season so that candidates for these Sacraments will also be preparing in Lent. These candidates should also be remembered in the prayers of the community.

Prayer Father of love and power, it is your will to establish everything in Christ and to draw us into his all- embracing love. Guide the elect of your Church, strengthen them in their vocation, build them into the kingdom of your Son, and seal them with the Spirit of your promise. Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults

The Needy and Hungry of the World: especially on Lenten Fast Day, Friday of the first week in Lent. 154 February - Diocesan Calendar

The agency for overseas development, CAFOD, encourages the Church in England and Wales to use the Friday of the first week in Lent as an opportunity to remember the needy and hungry of the world. The day is an opportunity the three Lenten disciplines of Prayer, Fasting and Almsgiving which derive from the proclamation of the Word on Ash Wednesday. The proceeds from the practice of fasting on the Friday are usually collected at Mass on the 2nd Sunday of Lent.

Prayer All powerful Father, God of goodness, you provide for all your creation. Give us an effective love for our brothers and sisters who suffer from lack of food. Help us do all we can to relieve their hunger, that they may serve you with carefree hearts. Roman Missal

Women’s World Day of Prayer: especially on 1st Friday in March

Women’s World Day of Prayer is a worldwide movement of Christian women who come together to observe a common day of prayer held on the first Friday in March each year, and who, in many countries, have a continuing relationship in prayer and service. Through Women’s World Day of Prayer women are encouraged to become aware of their talents and use them in the service of the wider community.

Prayer Father, you have given all peoples one common origin, and your will is to gather them as one family in yourself. Fill the hearts of all women with the fire of your love and the desire to ensure justice for all. Hear the prayers offered you by women throughout the world for an end to all division, and a human society built on love and peace. Roman Missal (adapted)

Penitents and Wanderers:

The twin themes of Lent are baptism and penance. Lent is a time of reflection and preparation for Easter. Many parishes offer opportunities for the celebration of the Sacrament of Penance in the Lenten season. In recent years some parishes have ex- plored using the Lenten period as a time to assist those returning to the Church after a period of not being active in the life of the Church. This reflects the ancient practice of the Order of Penitents which reached its end on the morning of Holy Thursday.

Prayer God of power and might, we praise you through your Son, Jesus Christ, who comes in your name. He is the Word that brings salvation. He is the hand you stretch out to sinners. He is the way that leads to your peace.

God our Father, we had wandered far from you, but through your Son you have brought us back. You gave him up to death so that we might turn again to you and find our way to one another. Roman Missal: Eucharistic Prayer for Reconciliation II Diocesan Calendar - February 155

27 Tue TUESDAY OF HOLY WEEK V

28 Wed WEDNESDAY OF HOLY WEEK V

29 Thu THURSDAY OF HOLY WEEK (MAUNDY THURSDAY) THE SACRED PASCHAL TRIDUUM The celebrations of the Sacred Triduum are to be carried out in cathedral and parochial churches and only in those churches in which they can be performed with dignity, that is, with a good attendance of the faithful, an appropriate number of ministers, and the means to sing at least some of the parts. Consequently, it is desirable that small communities, associations and special groups of various kinds join together in these churches to carry out the sacred celebrations in a more noble manner (Norms for the Sacred Paschal Triduum, Roman Missal p. 329 #3). A priest may not celebrate the rites of the Sacred Triduum on his own.

MASS OF THE LORD’S SUPPER W Gl. Pf of Eucharist I. “In communion with, Therefore, Lord” and “On the day before” pr. Not EP IV. The Mass of the Lord’s Supper is celebrated in the evening; crosses may be veiled in white and the altar decorated with flowers in moderation. The tabernacle should be entirely empty and sufficient hosts consecrated for today and tomorrow. The Altar of Repose should be decorated with flowers and candles. While the Gloria is sung, all the bells in the church are rung and then remain silent until the Gloria of the Easter Vigil. During the same period, the organ and other musical instruments may be used only to support the singing. The Washing of Feet may take place during the Mass. Following the Prayer after Communion, the Blessed Sacrament is taken to the Altar of Repose where it is kept in a tabernacle. Solemn Adoration may not continue after midnight. After the Blessed Sacrament has been transferred, the altar is stripped of all cloths, cross and candles. 160 March/April - Diocesan Calendar 30 Fri GOOD FRIDAY. Day of Fast and Abstinence. R Office of Readings and Morning Prayer with the people recommended. The Celebration of the Passion of the Lord about 3pm, unless pastoral reasons suggest a later hour. HC may be given to the faithful only at this celebration, but may be brought to the sick at any hour. According to the Church’s ancient tradition, only the Sacraments of Penance and Anointing of the Sick may be celebrated today and tomorrow. COLLECTION FOR HOLY LAND SHRINES (Mandatory) Canon Bernard Murray +1924 (Lynford) Fr Henry Macklin +1956 (Cople)

31 Sat HOLY SATURDAY. Today, HC may only be given as Viaticum. Fr Frederick Donovan +1940 (rtd fr. Stowmarket 1939)

THE NATIONAL CYCLE OF PRAYER

During Easter we are asked to pray for these intentions:

New Members of the Church: The Easter Vigil is the usual time to celebrate the Sacraments of Initiation (Baptism, Confirmation and Eucharist) with Adults. The Easter Season is therefore the time for post-baptismal catechesis or ‘mystagogy’ with the newly baptised or ‘neophytes’.

‘This is a time for the community and the neophytes together to grow in deepening their grasp of the paschal mystery and in making it part of their lives through medita- tion on the Gospel, sharing in the Eucharist, and in doing works of charity.’ RCIA 234

In many communities and dioceses, the Easter Season is a privileged time to cele- brate the Sacraments of First Communion and Baptism.

Prayer Father, you give your Church constant growth by adding new members to your family. Help us put into action in our lives the baptism we have received in faith Roman Missal

Vocations: Especially on World Day of Prayer for Vocations — 4th Sunday of Easter

The World Day of Prayer for Vocations is held each year on the Fourth Sunday of Easter. In the Gospel of John read on this Sunday, in each of the three years, Jesus speaks of himself as the Good Shepherd. The Good Shepherd who has come so that people may have life to the full, the one who lays down his life for his sheep, the one who knows his sheep — they recognise his voice.

Prayer Father, in your plan for our salvation you provide shepherds for your people. Fill your Church with the spirit of courage and love. Raise up worthy ministers of your altars and ardent but gentle servants of the gospel. Roman Missal

Human Work: Especially on St Joseph the Worker —1 May Diocesan Calendar - April 161

The commemoration of St Joseph the Worker on 1 May was instituted by Pius XII in 1955. It proposes the example and intercession of Joseph as worker and provider.

Prayer God our Father, creator and ruler of the universe, in every age you call men and women to develop and use their gifts for the good of others. With St Joseph as our example and guide, help us to do the work you have asked and come to the rewards you have promised. Roman Missal (adapted)

The Right Use of the Media: Especially on World Communications Day — the Seventh Sunday of Easter

‘Go out to the whole world; proclaim the Good News to all creation’ is the message of the Ascension of the Lord. It offers the starting point for understanding the right use of the media. World Communications Day was established by the Pontifical Council for Social Communications and each year there is message from the Holy Father

Prayer Father of light, from whom every good gift comes, send your Spirit into our lives with the power of a mighty wind, and by the flame of your wisdom open the horizons of our minds. Loosen our tongues to sing your praise in words beyond the power of speech, for without your Spirit men and women could never raise their voice in words of peace or announce the truth that is Jesus the Lord.

Roman Missal

The Church: Especially at Pentecost

Throughout the Season of Easter the first reading at Mass is taken from the Acts of the Apostles. Luke tells the story of the early Church from the Ascension and Pentecost to the early missions of the apostles.

‘When the work which the Father gave the Son to do on earth was accomplished, the Holy Spirit was sent on the day of Pentecost in order that he might continually sanctify the Church. Then “the Church was openly displayed to the crowds and the spread of the Gospel among the nations, through preaching, was begun.” As the “convocation” of all men for salvation, the Church in her very nature is missionary, sent by Christ to all the nations to make disciples of them.’ Catechism 767

‘Those who with God’s help have welcomed Christ’s call and freely responded to it are urged on by love of Christ to proclaim the Good News everywhere in the world. This treasure, received from the apostles, has been faithfully guarded by their successors. All Christ’s faithful are called to hand it on from generation to generation, by professing the faith, by living it in fraternal sharing, and by celebrating it in liturgy and prayer.’ Catechism 3

Prayer God our Father, in all the churches scattered throughout the world you show forth the one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church. Through the gospel and the Eucharist bring your people together in the Holy Spirit and guide us in love. 162 April - Diocesan Calendar

Make us a sign of your love for all people, and help us show forth the living presence of Christ in the world. Roman Missal

St Joseph the Worker: Tuesday 1 May. World Day of Prayer for Vocations: Sunday 22 April. World Communications Day: Sunday 13 May. The Church - especially at Pentecost: Sunday 20 May.

THE NATIONAL CYCLE OF PRAYER

During Ordinary Time (Autumn), ie from September to Christ the King, we are asked to pray for these intentions:

The Harvest: the Fruits of Human Work and the Reverent Use of Creation; especially on World Day of Prayer for the Care of Creation (1 September) and on last Sunday in September or whenever Harvest Festivals are held.

“The annual World Day of Prayer for the Care of Creation will offer individual believers and communities a fitting opportunity to reaffirm their personal vocation to be stewards of creation, to thank God for the wonderful handiwork which he has entrusted to our care, and to implore his help for the protection of creation as well as his pardon for the sins committed against the world in which we live.” (Pope Francis, Letter inaugurating World Prayer of Care for Creation)

The Church has long celebrated the agricultural harvest. This intention also includes all human work. In all circumstances of human life there are choices to be made regarding the environment and our reverent stewardship of the God’s gift of creation. “The external deserts in the world are growing, because the internal deserts have become so vast. Therefore the earth’s treasures no longer serve to build God’s garden for all to live in, but they have been made to serve the powers of exploitation and destruction” (Benedict XVI, homily at Inaugural Mass, 2005).” 176 September - Diocesan Calendar

Prayer O Lord, good Father, who in your providence have entrusted the earth to the human race, grant, we pray, that with the fruits harvested from it we may be able to sustain life and, with your help, always use them. Roman Missal

Students and Teachers: especially on Education Day — 2nd Sunday of September

The day of prayer for Education is organised ecumenically by the Education agencies of the various denominations. In the Catholic Church material is distributed by the Catholic Education Service. There may be a collection for the Agency on this Sunday.

Prayer God is the source of all wisdom and knowledge. Let us ask him to bless those who seek to learn and their teachers. For students, that the Spirit of God may grant them the gifts of wisdom of understanding. For teachers, that they may share their knowledge with gentleness, patience, and concern for their students. Book of Blessings

The Spread of the Gospel: especially on Home Mission Day: 3rd Sunday in September and World Mission Day: the penultimate Sunday in October

Home Mission Day is on the 3rd Sunday in September. Material for the day is prepared by the Home Mission Desk. There may be a collection to support the work of the agency. World Mission Day is on the penultimate Sunday in October. A Mass ‘for the Spread of the Gospel’ may be celebrated on this Sunday. Each year the Holy Father writes a message for World Mission day. In England and Wales material is produced for parishes by the Pontifical Mission Societies. There may be a collection for their work on this day.

Prayer O God, whose will it is that all should be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth, look upon your abundant harvest and be pleased to send workers to gather it, that the Gospel may be preached to all creation and that your people, gathered by the word of life and sustained by the power of the Sacraments, may advance in the path of salvation and love. Roman Missal

Justice and Peace in the World: especially on Harvest Fast Day: 1st Friday in October The Harvest Fast Day is one of two such days organised by CAFOD. The money offered from the fasting is usually collected at Mass on the following Sunday.

Prayer O God, who shows a father’s care for all, grant, in your mercy, that the members of the human race, to whom you have given a single origin, may form in peace a single family and always be united by a fraternal spirit. Roman Missal

Prisoners and their Families: especially on Prisoners Sunday (2nd Sunday on October) and in Prisons Week: 2nd Week in October Diocesan Calendar - September 177

Prisoners Week was a Catholic initiative begun in 1975 by Bishop Victor Guazelli which has since ecumenical support and observance. It reflects the work of the Prison Advice and Care Trust which builds on its origins as the Bourne Trust — the Catholic Prisoner’s Aid Society. The Sunday and the following week seek to focus attention not only on the needs of prisoners but on all those involved the field of prison care, prisoners families, victims of crime, prison staff and many volunteers.

Prayer Almighty and merciful God, to whom alone the secrets of the heart lie open, who recognize the just and make righteous the guilty, hear our prayers for your servants held in prison, and grant that through patience and hope they may find relief in their affliction and soon return unhindered to their own Roman Missal

All Victims of War: especially on Remembrance Sunday: 2nd Sunday in November

Remembrance Sunday falls on the Sunday nearest Armistice Day, 11 November, which marks the end of the First World War. On this day are remembered all those who gave their lives for their country, all who suffered and died through acts of war and those who were left behind to grieve and mourn. In England and Wales one Mass for the Dead may celebrated on this Sunday.

Prayer O God, merciful and strong, who crushes wars and casts down the proud, be pleased to banish violence swiftly from our midst and to wipe away all tears, so that we may all truly deserve to be called your children. Roman Missal

Young People: especially on Christ the King: 34th Sunday in Ordinary Time.

The Church in England and Wales has marked the contribution of young people on Christ the King for many years. Universally it is marked on Palm Sunday. In many parishes it is an opportunity to focus on the role of young people in the Sunday liturgy and in the life of the parish. Over the last few years material prepared to assist the day has used the live simply campaign. There may be a collection for diocesan and nation youth services on this day.

Prayer O God, who gave one origin to all peoples and willed to gather from them one family for yourself, fill all hearts of all young people, we pray, with the fire of your love and kindle in them a desire for the just advancement of their neighbour, that, through the good things which you richly bestow upon all, each human person may be brought to perfection, every division may be removed, and equity and justice may be established in human society.

THE NATIONAL CYCLE OF PRAYER

During Advent and Christmastide, we are asked to pray for these intentions:

Openness to the Word of God: especially on 2nd Sunday of Advent

In many denominations this Sunday is known as Bible Sunday. This originates from the Collect for this Sunday in the Book of Common Prayer:

Prayer Blessed Lord, who caused all Holy Scriptures to be written for our learning: help us so to hear them, to read, mark, learn, and inwardly digest them, that, through patience, and the comfort of your holy word, we may embrace and for ever hold fast the hope of everlasting life, which you have given us in our Saviour Jesus Christ.

Advent is a time when the Church ‘re-reads and re-lives the great events in salvation history in the ‘“today” of her liturgy’. [CCC 1095]

Prayer All-wise God, as you have granted us to drink with delight from the Word that leads us to know you, in your goodness grant us also to come at length to you, source of all wisdom and stand for ever before your face. Based on a prayer of the Venerable Bede

Migrants and Refugees: especially on 3 December.

On December 3rd the Church commemorates St Francis Xavier. This is the day chosen by the Pontifical Council for the Pastoral Care of Migrants and Itinerant People to mark World Migration Day. Each year there is a message from the Holy Father reflecting on the ‘signs of the times’.

“Asylum seekers and refugees - I wish to underline how the tendency is to stop at the question of their arrival while disregarding the reasons for which they left their native land.” [Benedict XVI - Message for World Migration day 2005]

Prayer Lord, no one is a stranger to you and no one is ever far from your loving care. In your kindness watch over refugees and exiles, those separated from their loved Diocesan Calendar - December 187

ones, young people who are lost, and those who have left or run away from home. Bring them back safely to the place where they long to be and help us always to show your kindness to strangers and those in need. Roman Missal: For Refugees and Exiles

Expectant Mothers: especially on 4th Sunday of Advent

The Gospel on the 4th Sunday of Advent focusses on the role of Mary in our salvation. Over the three year cycle the gospel tells of the betrothal of Mary to Joseph, the Annunciation and the Visitation. The stories prepare us for the Birth of our Lord at Christmas.

Prayer God has brought gladness and light to the world through the Virgin Mary’s delivery of her son. Grant the prayer of all mothers to be as they ask for the birth of a healthy child. May they safely deliver a son or daughter to be numbered among your family, to serve you in all things, and to gain eternal life. Adapted from the Book of Blessing

Migrants’ Day Monday 3 December Bible Sunday Sunday 9 December Expectant Mothers Sunday 23 December
