This special season in the church calendar celebrates the joy of creation, which encourages awareness of initiatives to protect the natural environment. We are reminded, during this time, of our duty to care for what Pope Francis calls ‘our common home’. When we hear the word ‘home’, we tend to think of the immediate place where we live and the people we share it with - our house or living space and our immediate family, neighbours and community. Each of us lives within a particular web of relationships that we call home. But we must be conscious too that we live in a wider relationship with the earth and with all of creation. We all live in a common home, and we all must care for it, and for each other. Our gospel today sees Jesus offer some advice about living in community. He first acknowledges that communities are far from perfect. We all struggle with our relationships and duties. But he makes one thing clear: in a community, we all have a responsibility to each other and to work to build harmony. This responsibility extends beyond our immediate environment to our world. In this Season of Creation, we remember in particular those across the world who are suffering as a result of environmental damage. The way we live on this earth has consequences for the world and its people, and indeed for future generations. Over the next few weeks, let us consider how we might make some changes that reflect our care for others and for our common home. ‘We need to strengthen the conviction that we are one single human family’. (Pope Francis, Laudato Si) Triona Doherty, Intercom Heavenly Father, grant us the grace to lead truly Christian lives. Increase the love of our neighbour in our hearts. Keep us sensitive to one another’s needs as we live our lives together. We ask this through Christ our Lord, Amen. Visit https://www.derrydiocese.org/ . news/the-season-of-creation _________________________________________________________ Monthly Mass in honour of St Pio will be celebrated on Monday 7th September at 7 pm in St Patrick’s, Pennyburn. We ask God’s blessing on all through the intercession of St Pio. PRAYER TO ST PIO O Glorious St Pio, patron of those who are in need of healing, I call upon you and seek your help. Please intercede for all those who are in need of spiritual, emotional or physical healing. Obtain for them comfort during their sufferings, strength when they feel weary, hope when they feel discouraged and joy when they are down-hearted. Help them know the peace of Jesus and the certainty of His victory in their suffering, through Christ, our Lord, Amen. _______________________________________________________________________ First Holy Communion You are asked to remember in your prayers the children from St Brigid’s Primary School, Carnhill who will receive their First Holy Communion at Masses on Friday 11th September at 10.30 am and 4 pm in St Brigid’s Church, Carnhill.

Perhaps individuals or families could commit to praying the Rosary each day for relief of this crisis. A Prayer in the Time of the Coronavirus by Fr Brian Grogan S.J Dear God, in 1879 the Apparition at Knock gave hope and courage to the people of Ireland in difficult times. We ask that Our Lady may now protect your beloved people from the coronavirus. May its victims be strengthened by the spiritual support of the Christian community and restored soon to full health. We also pray for the medical personnel who deal with the virus. This we ask in confidence through Christ Our Lord. Amen. Our Lady of Knock, pray for us, St Joseph, pray for us, St John the Evangelist, pray for us. Amen. Saints of the Coming Week Tuesday The Birthday of the Blessed Virgin Mary; Wednesday St Ciaran, Abbot; Thursday St Peter Claver, priest Saturday The Most Holy Name of Mary; St Ailbe, bishop AN ACT OF SPIRITUAL COMMUNION “My Jesus, I believe that you desire to make your home within me and that you are present in the Most Holy Sacrament of the altar. I love you above all things, and I desire to receive you in my soul. Since I cannot at this moment receive you sacramentally, come spiritually into my heart. I embrace your love as if you were already there, and I unite myself wholly to you. Never permit me to be separated from you.

  • The Catholic Church and the Third Home Rule Bill
    9 ‘Resigned to take the bill with its defects’: the Catholic Church and the third Home Rule bill Daithí Ó Corráin In its chronicle of events for 1912, The Irish Catholic Directory devoted just a single line to the introduction of the third Home Rule bill in the House of Commons.1 This contrasted sharply with lengthy entries on the crusade against evil literature, intemperance, the sinking of Titanic and clerical obituaries. Even more striking was the silence of the Catholic hierarchy, which, as a body, did not issue any statement. This reticence should not, however, be regarded as episcopal disapproval. The bishops shared in the general air of expectancy that nationalist aspirations would be fulfilled by 1914: this was the product of the two general elections of 1910; the Parliament Act of 1911, which limited the capacity of the House of Lords to veto parliamentary measures; and the commitment of the Liberal Party under Herbert H. Asquith to introduce a third Home Rule bill. But for the hierarchy the possibility of Irish self-government presented both potential benefits and lurking dangers. Their responses to the bill and the deepening crisis of 1913 and 1914 were conditioned by two overarching factors. 1 The Irish Catholic Directory (ICD), 1913, p. 515. 185 THE HOME RULE CRISIS 1912–1914 The first was their level of confidence in the leadership of the Irish Party. The second applied chiefly to the Ulster bishops: the prospect of exclusion from an Irish parliament imperilled their religious and educational interests. By the onset of the First World War, the spectre of partition had stretched their trust in the Irish Party and support for a Home Rule settlement to breaking point.

  • W. B. Yeats' Influence on Irish Nationalism, 1916-1923
    18 W.B. Yeats’ Influence on Irish Nationalism, 1916-1923 Mark Mulcahey 19 Mark graduated from Eastern Illinois University in 1999 with a B.A. in History. He is currently working on his M.A. at Brigham Young University, studying 20th Century U.S. Military History with an emphasis on U.S. military intervention. This paper was written for a course on The World in the Twentieth Century with Dr. Roger Beck. William Butler Yeats once said, “I understand my own race and in all my work, lyric or dramatic, I have thought of it . I shall write for my own people, whether in love or hate of them matters little, probably I shall not know which it is.”1 This credo is evident in the majority of Yeats’ literary efforts. Yeats believed literature should shape a country’s cultural identity, specifically in Yeats’ case, Ireland, while being free of all political motives. Despite this intention, Yeats’ literary addition to Ireland’s culture also contributed to radical Irish nationalism. Yeats’ main objective was to create an Irish identity free from English cultural influence. By no means was Yeats either an Anglophobe or an advocate for using violent tactics in nationalist movements. However, this did not prevent Yeats’ works from inspiring Irish nationalists who believed in using violence in order to attain self-rule. Padraig Pearse and Michael Collins, both of whom admired Yeats, interpreted Yeats’ works as supporting their respective ideologies during the Easter Uprising of 1916 and the Irish Civil War in 1922-1923. Yeats’ early poetry recounted Irish folklore, legends, and descriptions of Ireland’s natural imagery.

  • The Roman Catholic Church in Britain During the First World War: a Study in Political Leadership”
    The Roman Catholic Church in Britain during the First World War: A Study in Political Leadership by Youssef Taouk A thesis presented to the University of Western Sydney in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy June, 2003 © Y. Taouk Statement of Authentication The work presented in this thesis is, to the best of my knowledge and belief, original except as acknowledged in the text. I hereby declare that I have not submitted this material, either in whole or in part, for a degree at this or any other institution. Abstract Title: “The Roman Catholic Church in Britain during the First World War: A Study in Political Leadership”. The political influence of British Catholics in First World War Britain has been a neglected aspect of British history. Although some recent studies of Catholicism in Britain in the first half of the twentieth century have included some consideration of the 1914-1918 period, they have mostly concentrated on the wider issue of Catholics and politics in British society and have only touched on the First World War very briefly. This thesis aims to address this deficiency by focusing precisely on the political role played by leading Roman Catholics in Britain during the conflict. The thesis concentrates on leading Catholic clergy, laymen, and the British Catholic press. It demonstrates that the majority of leading Catholics were guided by an excessive nationalism which had two consequences. Firstly, British Catholics supported the war effort and the British government almost unquestioningly. Secondly, most leading Catholics failed to give their full support to the Pope and repudiated his efforts to facilitate a negotiated peace.
