In loving obedience to your son, our Saviour, Jesus Christ, Amen. The Vicar Writes: In a wonderful ceremony at Westminster Abbey in 1998, attended by the Queen, ten statue of Twentieth Century martyrs were unveiled. Each of them died for their beliefs in violent circumstances. And each one has a life-story enough to inspire us for every one of the rest of our days... In this month of Remembrance Sunday, I think of Maximilian Kolbe. I quote from Wikipedia. ‘Franciszek Gajowniczek (15 November 1901 – 13 March 1995) was a Polish army sergeant whose life was saved at Auschwitz by priest Maximilian Kolbe, who volunteered to die in his place. Gajowniczek had been sent to Auschwitz concentration camp from a Gestapo prison in Tarnów. Gajowniczek and Kolbe met as inmates of Auschwitz in May 1941. When a camp prisoner appeared to have escaped, deputy commandant Karl Fritzsch ordered that ten other prisoners die by starvation in reprisal. Gajowniczek was one of those selected at roll-call. When the Franciscan priest, Kolbe, heard Gajowniczek cry out in agony over the fate of his family, he offered himself instead Kolbe's exact words have been forgotten, but one eye-witness account records his words as: "I am a Catholic priest from Poland; I would like to take his place, because he has a wife and children." The switch was permitted and the punishment meted out. After all his cellmates died, Kolbe was put to death with an injection of carbolic acid. Gajowniczek was sent from Auschwitz to Sachsenhausen concentration camp on 25 October 1944. He was liberated there by the Allies, after spending five years, five months, and nine days in concentration camps in total. He reunited with his wife, Helena, half-a-year later in Rawa Mazowiecka. Though she survived the war, his sons were killed in a Soviet bombardment of Nazi-occupied Poland in 1945 before his release. On 17 October 1971, Gajowniczek was a guest of Pope Paul VI in the Vatican when Maximilian Kolbe was beatified for his martyrdom. In 1972, Time magazine reported that over 150,000 people made a pilgrimage to Auschwitz to honour the anniversary of Maximilian's beatification. One of the first to speak was Gajowniczek, who declared "I want to express my thanks for the gift of life." His wife, Helena, died in 1977. Gajowniczek was in the Vatican once again, this time as a guest of Pope John Paul II, when Kolbe was canonized on 10 October 1982. In 1994, Gajowniczek visited the St. Maximilian Kolbe Catholic Church of Houston, Texas, where he told his translator Chaplain Thaddeus Horbowy that "so long as he ... has breath in his lungs, he would consider it his duty to tell people about the heroic act of love by Maximilian Kolbe." Gajowniczek died in the city of Brzeg on 13 March 1995 at the age of 93.[He was buried at a convent cemetery in Niepokalanów, 53 years after having his life saved by Kolbe. He was survived by his second wife, Janina.’ Maximilian Kolbe followed Christ his master and Lord, giving his life so that someone else could live. May we be willing to lay down our lives for other people, in whatever way Christ calls us... With love in Christ, News from the Swifts! Nearly 3 years ago, Stephen and Clare Swift moved with work to Hong Kong. Bearing in mind what is happening on the streets there at present, I emailed to check that they were alright. Stephen replied: ‘Hello David. So nice to hear from you. HONG KONG has been a little strange especially since the summer. While day to day life stays more or less the same, weekends are sometimes a little complicated. Where we live is fine. The violence and arguments are never really concentrated on people like us. It is quite heart breaking to see the way in which violence has spread and people have failed to keep talking. While the issues are complex, there is always a way to talk. I really think there is a need for an honest broker but it is really difficult to see who that could be. If only we had a Justin Welby!’ ‘We are likely to be here for at least another year and perhaps even two. Nothing is really certain at this stage but I think it’s clear that we won’t go back at the end of this year as was originally planned.’ They were also unlucky with a recent typhoon: ‘We are in Japan right now with Ben and Will and Ben’s fiancée. We had tickets for England France rugby but that has been cancelled because of the typhoon. Still hoping to go to the other game for which we have tickets (Japan Scotland). Fingers crossed that the damage is not too bad overnight. We are locked down in the hotel but on a high floor so no safety issues. ‘ They send greetings to you all!

Sharon Fishwick The Beatitudes: ‘Blessed are the persecuted’ ‘Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.’ (Matthew 5:10). Somebody once described a Christian as one who is ‘completely fearless, continually cheerful and constantly in trouble.’ Living the life that Jesus presents in the Beatitudes will not necessarily make us universally popular. We must be prepared for opposition, insults and ridicule or even worse. Of course, persecution is the daily experience for Christians in many parts of our world today. Jesus didn’t tell us to seek persecution, but He did say that when it comes, we should regard it as a blessing: Firstly, because we are identifying with Jesus: If we identify as fully as we can with Jesus, then we will experience suffering like Him.

  • The Apostles of Divine Mercy
    The Apostles of Divine Mercy Helena Kowalska - an ordinary girl with a typical Polish surname. But can you really call another St. Faustina person “ordinary”? Or maybe we just use that word to classify others? Helena, not really trying to prove anything to anyone, showed the world how great potential is hidden in “ordinary” people. It depends on them whether they will use it or not. When Helena was 16, she left her family village to work in the city as a housemaid. Faustina - that was the name given to her by the Congregation of Our Lady of Mercy, which she joined when she was 20 years old. She was remembered by the sisters: joyful, smiling, as if she was trying to share her happiness with everyone. Who would have thought that you could be smil- ing and be so happy while suffering?! And yet... Jesus, through painful spiritual experiences, was preparing her for a great mission that she was to undertake at a very young age. First, she had to get to know God’s merciful love, learn to trust Him, even in difficult situations, and to shape her life in the spirit of mercy towards others. Having learned this, she could convincing- ly proclaim Divine Mercy. To fulfill her mission, Sister Faustina received other gifts: she was able to see Jesus and talk to Him, to participate in the events of His life, and to take a peek beyond the mortal world - to see the reality of heaven, but also the reality of hell. This is just the beginning of a long list of her unique gifts.

  • Formation in Christian Chastity + Grade 6
    Formation in Christian Chastity + Grade 6 6th Grade – Lesson Plan 1 Theme: God made us to love and to be loved. Objectives: - Students will learn the true meaning of love. - Students will be able to identify characteristics of friendship and that true friends are not self-centered. - Students will understand that certain acts, such as gossiping, bullying, and teasing violate love of neighbor and friendship. St. Maximilian Kolbe: Raymond Kolbe, born January 7, 1894, was the son of devout Catholic parents. When Raymond was still a child, our Blessed Mother came to him holding two crowns, a red one symbolizing martyrdom and a white one symbolizing persevering purity. She asked if he was willing to accept either crown. He accepted both. As a young man, Raymond, along with his elder brother, entered a junior Franciscan seminary. He excelled in mathematics and physics and also had a passionate interest in the military. Later he decided that rather than be a military strategist, he wished to fight in another way. He wished to fight moral and spiritual evil by overcoming it with the weapons of truth, love, and mercy. In October 1917 he and six friends founded the Crusade of Mary Immaculate with the goal of converting sinners, freemasons, and those who left or denied the Catholic faith. He took the religious name Maximilian and was ordained a priest on April 28, 1918. Despite constant suffering from tuberculosis, Maximilian lived a life of intense prayer, work, and charity. Upon returning to Poland, he formed one of the largest Franciscan friaries in the world, with over 700 inhabitants.

  • Reflection Points
    Reflection Points Saint Maximilian Kolbe The story of Maximilian Kolbe The story begins on 8 January, 1894 - Raymond Kolbe was born in Poland. In his infancy Raymond seems to have been normally mischievous but one day, after his mother had scolded him for some mischief or other, her words took effect and brought about a radical change in his behaviour. Later Raymond explained this change: 'That night I asked the Mother of God what was to become of me. Then she came to me holding two crowns, one white, the other red. She asked if I was willing to accept either of these crowns. The white one meant that I should persevere in purity, and the red that I should become a martyr. I said that I would accept them both.' From that early age, Kolbe believed and accepted that he was destined for martyrdom. His belief in his dream coloured all his future actions. In 1910 he became a Franciscan, taking the name Maximilian. After studying in Rome and being ordained in 1919, he built a friary just west of Warsaw. This eventually housed 762 Franciscans and printed eleven periodicals, including a daily newspaper. In 1930 he went to Asia, where he founded friaries in Nagasaki and in India. In 1936 he was recalled to supervise the original friary near Warsaw. When Germany invaded Poland in 1939, he knew that the friary would be seized, and sent most of the friars home. He was imprisoned briefly and then released, and returned to the friary, where he and the other friars began to organize a shelter for 3,000 Polish refugees, among whom were 2,000 Jews.

  • Chapter Four: Motivated by Love
    Chapter Four: Motivated by Love Chapter Four Motivated by Love How was your experience of last week’s challenge to being attentive to the manifestations of perfectionism in your life, and praying through them? Verse of the week: ‘‘No one has greater love than this, to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.’’ (Jn. 15:13) Read Matthew 5:48 ‘‘So be perfect, just as your heavenly Father is perfect.’’ And read James 1:2-4 ‘‘Consider it all joy, my brothers, when you encounter various trials, for you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. And let perseverance have its full effect, so that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.’’ 1. We were just talking about avoiding perfectionism. So what does our Lord ask of us here? 25 Chapter Four: Motivated by Love Why does our Lord call us to be perfect in love? What does this look like? Read Matthew 5:3-10 ‘‘Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are they who mourn, for they will be comforted. Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the land. Blessed are they who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be satisfied. Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy. Blessed are the clean of heart, for they will see God. Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God. Blessed are they who are persecuted for the sake of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.’’ “The Beatitudes display the mystery of Christ himself.They are directions for discipleship.”1 Every Christian is called to imitate Christ.

Ron Boatwright Today’s epistle emphasis the power and relevance of faith. Faith can make the impossible possible. A story about one of the saints commemorated this week - Maximilian Kobe. In May 1941 he was transferred to Auschwitz. In the camp, the heavy work of moving loads of heavy logs at double speed was enforced by kicks and lashes. Maximilian also had to remove the bodies of those who died of torture. At the same time, he continued his priestly ministry, hearing confessions in unlikely places and smuggling in bread and wine to celebrate the Eucharist. He was noted for his sympathy and compassion towards those even more unfortunate than himself. In July 1941 a prisoner from Kolbe’s barracks vanished, prompting the deputy camp commander to pick 10 men from the same barracks to be starved to death in the notorious Block 13 as punishment for his escape. One of those selected, Franciszek Gajowniczek, cried out in distress at having been chosen, Maximilian volunteered to take his place. He stepped forward, saying: “I am a Catholic priest. I wish to die for that man. I am old; he has a wife and children.” During the days in the death chamber of Cell 18, he led his companions in songs and prayer.

  • Saint Maximilian Kolbe, Priest and Martyr Thursday, August 14
    Saint of the Month for August 2014 (A monthly series compiled by Tom Quinlan) Saint Maximilian Kolbe, Priest and Martyr Thursday, August 14 This month I have chosen Saint Maximilian Mary Kolbe, partly because of an indirect connection with him attained during a 2006 pilgrimage to Central Europe. He is one of two saints honored this month who were murdered at Auschwitz by the Nazis; more about this point below. Maximilian was born in Zdunska Wola, in what was then Russian Poland, on January 8, 1894 of humble parents- a laborer and his wife. When he was ten he had a vision of Mary who offered him two crowns- a red one, for martyrdom, and a white one, for purity; he chose both. He became a Franciscan in Poland (Conventual Franciscans) in 1907, and in 1912 went to Rome to study theology and philosophy at the Pontifical Gregorian University. He became quite active in an effort to spread devotion to Mary by founding a sodality. His group was called the Knights Immaculata (or the Militia of the Immaculate Mary), and was a movement of Marian consecration. He was ordained a priest in 1918. Returning to Poland he began the popular monthly magazine called, in English, The Knight of Mary Immaculate , and in 1927 founded the City of Mary Immaculate, a religious center, in Niepokalanow. I remember seeing a museum about his life and work that is part of a large church in Niepokalanow. Saint Maximilian spent some time as a missionary in Japan and India before World War II, and founded sister institutions in those countries.
