The cause 10.30AM THE PARISH MASS of about three hundred martyrs was introduced in Rome in 1850. By Please see ticketing details to attend 1935, nearly two hundred Reformation martyrs had been beatified but only two of these had been canonised: in 1936, Cardinal John Fisher and Sir Thomas More, Henry VIII’s chancellor, became the first Englishmen to be made saints since 1401. In 1970, the Vatican selected forty martyrs to represent the full group; on 25th October 1970 they were canonised by Pope Paul VI. The martyrs celebrated today came from every walk of life: rich and poor; married and single; men and women; priests, religious and lay people. They are remembered for their constancy of faith and courage in the face of persecution, which lasted almost a hundred and fifty years and left a permanent mark on English culture. Please see the parish website for more detailed information about the history of the Forty Martyrs.

Holy English Martyrs, pray for us. SOLEMNITY OF ALL SAINTS Next Sunday we celebrate the glorious feast of All Saints, the multitude of those who are now in heaven. During the year, the Church celebrates one by one the feasts of the saints. Today she joins them all in one festival. In addition to those whose names she knows, she recalls in a magnificent vision all the others "of all nations and tribes standing before the throne and in sight of the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands, proclaiming Him who redeemed them in His Blood." The Solemnity of All Saints should inspire us with tremendous hope. Among the saints in heaven are some we have known, perhaps a mother, a father, a grandparent or friend. We ask them to pray for us and with us. COMMEMORATION OF ALL THE FAITHFUL DEPARTED – ‘All Souls Day’ is celebrated next Monday 2nd November. We pray for all the faithful departed (the Holy Souls) in Purgatory on this day as they journey towards the glory of heaven. Purgatory is the state of being cleansed and perfected before we enter heavenly glory. There is scriptural basis for this belief. The primary reference is in 2 Maccabees, 12:26 and 12:32. "Turning to supplication, they prayed that the sinful deed might be fully blotted out... thus made atonement for the dead that they might be free from sin." It seems we rarely discuss Purgatory. Yet, the Church tells us it is the place where departed souls go to prepare to fully enter the presence of God. The purification of Purgatory is important because Scripture teaches us that nothing unclean will enter the presence of God in Heaven. Most of us die with venial sins or other transgressions lingering on our souls. Therefore, Purgatory is a place of beauty as it is a place of healing. There is only one way from Purgatory and that is to heaven! A Requiem Mass will be offered at 12noon. Do come and pray for your departed loved ones on this special day. HOLY SOULS BOOK Please feel free to write the names of deceased family and friends in the Holy Souls Book. This will then be placed next to the Paschal Candle next weekend for the duration of November, the month of the Holy Souls. Holy Souls envelopes are also available in Church if you would like a Mass celebrated for a departed loved one during the month of November. Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them. May the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. NHS TEST & TRACE CODE We encourage parishioners to scan the NHS Test and Trace QR code via the NHS COVID-19 App (See the Notice Board in Church) Thank you for helping to keep our community safe. GOOD COUNSEL NETWORK Tuesday 27th October is the 53rd anniversary of the Abortion Act being passed in England and Wales. Since 1967 over nine million babies have lost their lives to abortion. Millions of women and men have also had to deal with the suffering which so often follows an abortion. Please join us in praying and fasting for the end of abortion in this country on Tuesday 27th October. For Post Abortion help and to support Pro-Life counselling go to: www.GoodCounselNetwork.com. Please invite your friends and Family to join us via this Facebook event: https://www.facebook.com/events/27399240729369 69. CHURCH CLEANERS AND STEWARDS We are grateful to those who have volunteered as stewards. We still need more stewards to be able to celebrate more Masses and continue to keep those Masses we already have. We next need cleaners after the Requiem Mass on November 2nd. Aprons, gloves, spray and all necessary PPE is provided. Thank you. HALF TERM We wish the teachers, staff and children at St Patrick’s School a safe and restful half term. FAIRTRADE Next week we plan to disperse the remaining Fairtrade stock items while they are still in date. Please take what you want and if you are able please make a donation. Everyday produce will be donated to the foodbank. Over the lockdown period we have made a significant loss in this area and indeed well before lockdown sadly we were not breaking even. As so many supermarkets now sell Fairtrade items we will no longer offer these sales. A big thank you to Ann and her band of helpers for their help with Fairtrade over the years. OCTOBER - MONTH OF OUR LADY OF THE HOLY ROSARY During this month we pray the Rosary in Church together at 11.30am on Wednesdays before the 12noon Mass. We pray especially for our world in this present Covid19 crisis. If you are new to the Rosary or haven’t prayed it for some time, there are Rosary sheets available in Church for you to take away (or see the end of this newsletter) SACRAMENT OF RECONCILIATION (Confession) Please contact Fr Michael if you need to make your confession and a time can be arranged in Church in a Covid19 safe space. Please remember to wear your face mask. Do celebrate this wonderful sacrament of God’s love and mercy. If you have forgotten the prayers for the celebration of the Sacrament, they are available on the Parish Website. PRIESTS’ RETIREMENT FUND - ANNUAL APPEAL The annual appeal, in support of the Priest’s Retirement Fund, will take place on 1st November 2020. During their years of service to parish congregations, many priests did not have the opportunity to prepare adequately for retirement. The support received for this appeal each year is a great reassurance to them that they are not forgotten. There are currently twenty retired priests in receipt of financial support, which includes funding for retirement properties, retirement grants and care home fees, amounting to over £250,000 per annum.

  • “Thy Pyramyds Buylt up with Newer Might”: Shakespeare and the Cultural Memory of Ancient Egypt Edward Chaney
    Aegyptiaca. Journal of the History of Reception of Ancient Egypt “Thy pyramyds buylt up with newer might”: Shakespeare and the Cultural Memory of Ancient Egypt Edward Chaney Introduction: Given that we have lost 99 per cent of the documentation of the ancient world, one doesn’t have to be a Jungian advocate of the collective unconscious (or perhaps preferable in this context, Halbwachs’ Mémoire collective or even Warburgian engrams) to credit continuities for which there may be minimal material evidence. In an age at risk of reverting to ideologically-driven iconoclasm we should perhaps make a particular effort to fill the lacunae left by destruction, whether the result of “direct action” (damnatio memoriae) or mere decadence. Given that in 1843 Lepsius discovered an apparently unique copy, Shakespeare could not have read the Middle Kingdom’s Debate between a Man and his Soul, yet surely it has too much in common with Hamlet’s famous soliloquy for us to disregard resemblances. I begin with Moses and his admirer, Machiavelli, merely mentioning Freud’s Moses and Monotheism which first drew me back from Grand Touring to ancient Egypt. But I’d like to start by paying grateful tribute to my former PhD supervisor, Joe Trapp, Ernst Gombrich’s successor as director of the Warburg Institute, who as well as introducing me to the wondrous Frances Yates, introduced me to the writings of Jan Assmann. Not the least of Prof Assmann’s achievements has been to lend Freud’s foray into Egyptology a respectability it has sometimes lacked. Whatever one thinks of his answers, whether in cultural history or psychoanalysis, Freud asked the important questions.

  • The Canonisation of the Forty Martyrs of England and Wales the Cause
    The Canonisation of the Forty Martyrs of England and Wales The cause for the canonisation of the Forty Martyrs of England and Wales, which eventually took place on 25 October 1970, had its roots in the mid-19th Century when, following the restoration of the Catholic hierarchy in England and Wales in 1850, Cardinal Nicholas Wiseman and Cardinal Henry Manning, successive Archbishops of Westminster from 1850 until 1892, led a campaign for the recognition of those who had been Martyred for the faith. Just a year previously, in 1849, Frederick William Faber had written the rousing hymn Faith of Our Fathers in memory of the Martyrs. Born and raised an Anglican, Faber converted and was ordained a Priest later becoming an Oratorian Father, the congregation founded by St Philip Neri to which St John Henry Newman also belonged. By 1935 nearly two hundred Reformation Martyrs had been beatified, earning the title ‘Blessed’, but only two, John Fisher and Thomas More, had been canonised; both on 19 May 1935 by Pope Pius XI. Following the end of the Second World War, the cause, which had been largely dormant for some years, was gradually revived and, in December 1960, the names of thirty four English and six Welsh Martyrs were submitted to the Sacred Congregation of Rites by Cardinal William Godfrey, Archbishop of Westminster. All of these had been Martyred between 1535 and 1679. The list of names was drawn up in consultation with the Bishops of England and Wales and an attempt was made to ensure the list reflected a spread of social status and religious rank, together with a geographical spread and the existence of a well-established devotion.

    Please see the Cover and Contents in the last pages of this e-Book Online Study Materials on WORLD RELIGIONS 15 HINDUISM AND HINDU PHILOSOPHY: ELEMENTS AND DIMENSIONS HINDUISM Hinduism is a religious tradition that originated in the Indian subcontinent. Hinduism is often referred to as Sanâtana Dharma by its practitioners, a Sanskrit phrase meaning “the eternal law”. Hinduism is the world’s oldest major religion that is still practised. Its earliest origins can be traced to the ancient Vedic civilisation. A conglomerate of diverse beliefs and traditions, Hinduism has no single founder. It is the world’s third largest religion following Christianity and Islam, with approximately a billion adherents, of whom about 905 million live in India and Nepal. Other countries with large Hindu populations include Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Mauritius, Fiji, Suriname, Guyana and Trinidad and Tobago. Hinduism contains a vast body of scriptures. Divided as Shruti (revealed) and Smriti (remembered) and developed over millennia, these scriptures expound on theology, philosophy and mythology, and provide spiritual insights and guidance on the practice of dharma (religious living). In the orthodox view, among such texts, the Vedas and the Upanishads are the foremost in authority, importance and antiquity. Other major scriptures include the Tantras, the sectarian Agamas, the PurâGas and the epics Mahâbhârata and RâmâyaGa. The Bhagavad Gîtâ, a treatise excerpted from the Mahâbhârata, is sometimes called a summary of the spiritual teachings of the Vedas. ETYMOLOGY The Persian term Hindû is derived from Sindhu, Sanskrit for the Indus River. The Rig Veda mentions the land of the Indo-Aryans as 582 Sapta Sindhu (the land of the seven rivers in northwestern South Asia, one of them being the Indus).
