Deacon Philip White, Joseph Gaunt who have died recently. TODAY IS DIVINE MERCY SUNDAY Sr Maria Faustina Kowalska was born in Poland in 1905. She became a Sister of Our Lady of Mercy. In 1931 she received a vision, during which the Lord Jesus revealed to the world the great message of God's mercy; calling all to trust in God and to share God's mercy with one's neighbour. Pope Saint John Paul II had a great devotion to God's (Divine) Mercy and in 2000 he canonized Sr Maria and at the same time, established Divine Mercy Sunday as a feast day for the entire Church. "This is the happiest day of my life," he declared on that day. Five years later, on the vigil of Divine Mercy Sunday, Pope John Paul died, so entering into the Mercy of God. “Christ has taught us that we not only receive and experience the mercy of God, but we are also called to practice mercy to others... It is not easy to love with a deep love, which lies in the authentic gift of self. This love can only be learned by penetrating the mystery of God's love” Pope St John Paul II TO BOOK FOR A WEEKEND MASS ~ Please ring: To attend Mass at Our Lady's, please ring 01606 781600 To attend Mass at St Bede's, please ring 01606 270209 To attend Mass at St Wilfrid's, please ring 01606 883999 Please leave your name, contact number & the Mass you wish to attend on the answer machine.

  • A Name Identifies You in a Unique Way, Not Just Your Physical Self, but Who You Are As Person
    CHOOSING A CONFIRMATION NAME. A name identifies you in a unique way, not just your physical self, but who you are as person. One of the traditional practices in the Church at the time of Confirmation is choosing a name that will remind you of this sacrament. Your prayerful reflection will help you determine that name. You might want to recommit yourself to your baptismal name since it expresses the relationship that exist between these two sacraments, especially after you reflect on its meaning and discover some of the people who shared your name in Christian history. You might want to choose the name of a saint who represents the type of Cristian you wish to be. It is important to learn as much as you can about your patron saint. After all, you are asking this saint to be your friend and advocate for the rest of your life. Whether you decide to stay with your baptismal name or pick a new name, take the time to research and explore the root meaning of the name, for as Scripture says: “Yahweh calls each of us by name”. One of the most beautiful parts of your journey towards confirmation is choosing a patron saint, one of the great saints of our Church whose life in Christ is one that inspires you and calls you to be an ardent and radiant catholic. The saint are not just people who lived long ago! Moreover, they are alive in heaven now, totally present in our lives through God’s grace and their prayers.

  • A Treasury of Atonement
    A Treasury of Atonement A Collection of Quotations from Approved Sources The Lord shall open unto thee his good treasure. -- Deuteronomy 28:12 Who has known the mind of the Lord? – Rom. 11:34 Introduction 1. St. Gertrude 2. Louis of Blois 3. St. Therese of Lisieux 4. Peter d'Airelle, Jacinta Marto and Rose Ferron 5. Sister Josefa Menendez 6. St. Faustina Kowalska 7. Anselmo del Alamo 8. Padre Pio 9. Sister Maria Concepcion Zuniga 10. Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen Introduction HRIST Our Lord said: “Therefore every scribe who is instructed unto Cthe kingdom of heaven, is like unto a man that is a householder, who bringeth forth out of his treasure things new and old.” This is a short collec- tion of quotations from the vast treasure house of the church, about suffering, reparation, atonement, and the cross. No matter how much you have read, you can always find something new. Christ said that he would make all things new, (Apoc. 21:5) that he would establish a new covenant, and put new wine into new bottles. We have now arrived at the newest, the most recent, the last, and perhaps the best, period of human history. “Every man at the beginning doth set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: but thou hast kept the good wine until now.” 1. St. Gertrude ERTRUDE, a holy virgin most dear to God, was once divinely taught Gthat one who is considering in his heart the image of the Crucified, ought to think he hears Jesus Christ Himself saying to him, with a gentle voice, “Behold, thou seest how for love of thee I hung upon the cross, naked, despised, My whole Body wounded, and every limb stretched.

  • Divine Mercy Magnificat
    CELEBRATION OF THE WORD Second Sunday of Easter This is a celebration of the Word to aid your worship this Sunday, alone or with family. If possible, place a simple cross or crucifix prominently in the room and light one or more candles. You can also place an image of the Virgin Mary there if possible. As a family, choose the one who leads the prayer, and someone to do the readings. Whoever leads the prayer can say: On this Divine Mercy Sunday we recall the words of Saint Thomas Aquinas: “mercy consists in bringing a thing out of non-being into being.” We see this transpire concretely in the life of the early Church. The believers “devoted themselves to the teaching of the apost- les and to the communal life, to the breaking of bread and to prayers.” They were filled with awe; they were witnesses of wondrous signs; they lived for the good of the other; they were selfless and generous; they overflowed with “exultation and sincerity of heart.” God “in his great mercy” gave them—and us—“a new birth to a living hope” through the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. That is what the Apostle Thomas is looking for in the Lord’s open side. Today, in the midst of our fears and the feeling that we are locked in, prevented from our normal routines and even from our usual practices of the faith, we are confident that the Lord can break through any barrier and reach us with his grace. Sign of the Cross After a moment of silence, let everyone begin by making the Sign of the Cross: In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

  • Guidelines for Choosing a Confirmation Name 1
    Guidelines for Choosing a Confirmation Name 1. Confirmation candidates should choose a saint’s name, the name of a biblical hero, or the name of a virtuous person they admire (living or deceased) as their Confirmation name. 2. The name must not contain any derivative of the name of Satan or the devil (For example, Satana or Devila). 3. Confirmation candidates may use their Baptismal name. Because Confirmation is the completion of our Baptism, it is an opportunity to reaffirm our initiation and to strengthen the connection between these two sacraments by using again their Baptismal name. 4. It is permissible for a Confirmation candidate to choose the name of a person who is in the process of canonization (For example, Blessed Francis Xavier Seelos or Venerable Fulton Sheen) CHOOSING A CONFIRMATION SAINT We choose a Confirmation saint because we realize how unfortunate it would be to travel alone. The saints have so much to teach us about this journey. The following list is for you to use as a starting point to assist your child in choosing a “Confirmation saint-buddy.” Have your child pick a saint who speaks to them. Know their story, but mostly know the power of their prayer to this saint. Encourage your child to include praying to this saint as part of their prayer life. I) “Superhero” Saints! The “superpowers” of these saints were not the result of a scientific accident or alien power. These people were simply receptive to the mighty power of God. These following saint stories are incredibly heroic! St. Mary, the Mother of God St.

  • Jesus, I Trust In
    SAINT BONAVENTURE CHURCH DIVINE MERCY SUNDAY | APRIL 19, 2020 As Christian stewards, our mission is to proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ to all people through word, sacrament, service and community life. JESUS,JESUS, II TRUSTTRUST ININ YOUYOU Page two Divine Mercy Sunday PASTOR’S CORNER Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, It has been a week since Easter Sunday when we celebrated the Resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ from the dead. However, the Resurrection of our Lord is so great an event that the Church actually spends 50 days celebrating. The Easter Season will continue until the Solemnity of Pentecost on May 31. This Sunday is called Divine Mercy Sunday. In the 1930’s, Jesus chose a humble Polish nun, St. Maria Faustina Kowalska, to receive private revelations about his Divine Mercy. She put these revelations in her Diary. The Lord wanted a Feast Day dedicated to Divine Mercy. Shortly after the canonization of Sister Faustina, the Vatican decreed that the Second Sunday of Easter was to be known as the Sunday of Divine Mercy. This afternoon at 3:00 p.m. Father Ruben will lead the livestreamed Divine Mercy Liturgy. You can watch this either by going on our website: stbonaventure.org and clicking on the “Live Mass” Button or on our YouTube channel: youtube.com/stbonaventurehb. Today’s Gospel truly centers on the Divine Mercy of Jesus Christ. On the evening of the first day of the week Jesus appeared to his disciples. His first words to them were, “Peace be with you.” They were overjoyed to hear these words.
