  • The Twenty-Seventh Sunday in Ordinary Time (A) 4 October 2020
    The Twenty-Seventh Sunday in Ordinary Time (A) 4 October 2020 HE ROSARY is a most beautiful and powerful prayer. T Many great graces and miracles testify to its effects. But it also requires great faith. We have to believe that there truly is somebody there: someone who is loving, and listening carefully. For our Mother in the order of grace is concerned for us more than we can ever imagine; and she wishes us to turn to her, in simple trust, for all our needs, small and great. She presents them to her Son just as she did at the Wedding Feast of Cana. It was her request that enabled the Son of God to transform the water into wine, even though His public ministry had not yet begun. Let us be confident therefore. With the Rosary, we may recite all or part, as time allows. It is a fine meditation on Our Saviour’s work Our Lady of the Rosary by Luca Giordano and upon Our Lady’s share therein. We too have a part (1634-1705) to play in this work, and intercession for others is certainly a vital element for us all. In this month of the Rosary, try to say some part each day, and allow your Blessed Mother to guide and protect you always. Amen. Dom Michael Clothier (Parish Priest) N.B. The Rosary is recited communally on Thursdays in St Benedict’s at 7.00 p.m. Numbers at our Masses and the NHS QR Code: There has been concern that attendance at Mass during the pandemic would be low.

  • The Left Panel Files/Ambrose Barlow.Pdf
    Saint Ambrose Barlow Born 1585: Barlow Hall, Manchester. Ambrose Barlow was the fourth son of Mary, daughter of Sir Uryan Brereton; and Sir Alexander Barlow, Knight of Barlow Hall, near Manchester. Ambrose was educated at the Benedictine monastery of St. Gregory, Douai and entered the English College at Valladolid on 20th September, 1610. His elder brother William Rudesind was a monk at Douai and Ambrose joined him there, where he was ordained in 1617 after becoming a monk himself in 1616. His mission in England brought him to Leigh, where he was based at Morley Hall; he served also at Ormskirk, Warrington and Winwick in Lancashire. In 1628, Ambrose ministered to Edmund Arrowsmith, who was imprisoned in Lancaster gaol. The night after Father Arrowsmith was executed, Ambrose had a vision where Arrowsmith foretold Ambrose’ own martyrdom. At the time, Ambrose did not know that Father Arrowsmith had been executed and dismissed the experience as an illusion. When he discovered that Father Arrowsmith had in fact been martyred on the day of the apparition, he became convinced that he would suffer the same fate. He was arrested by the Vicar of Eccles on Easter Sunday, the 25th April 1641. Nearly 400 armed men accompanied the vicar and Ambrose calmly let himself be taken, believing the event the will of God. After four months' imprisonment in Lancaster gaol, he was brought to trial and sentenced the next day, having confessed that he was a priest. On Friday, 10th September, he was hanged, drawn and quartered; his dismembered body-parts displayed on the Collegiate Church at Manchester and on the walls of Lancaster Castle.

  • Saint Ambrose Barlow His Life, Times and Relics
    Saint Ambrose Barlow His life, times and relics. David W. Atherton and Michael P. Peyton Revised 2017 On 10th September 1641 Ambrose Barlow, a priest and monk of the Order of Saint Benedict, was executed at Lancaster for high treason. Born in Lancashire in 1585 in childhood he had managed to cope with being a Catholic in the reign of Elizabeth I and had worked as a priest during the reign of James I. However, he fell victim to the political and religious turmoil in England in the years preceding the outbreak of the Civil War. On the 25th October 1970 he was one of the “Forty Martyrs of England and Wales” canonised by Pope Paul VI. His relics are substantial, widely dispersed and still venerated. In this short work we explore some aspects of his life, death and lasting impact on the Catholic community. It is difficult for us living in a secular age to appreciate the importance of religious belief and practice to our ancestors in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Only by considering these matters can we understand the story of Ambrose. Inability to practise one’s religion in a manner pleasing to God could lead to the abandonment of hopes of heaven and doom a person to an eternity of damnation. Henry VIII’s dispute and final break with Rome after 1533 left the nation as undeniably Christian but with great variations in opinion as to how to live a Christian life. The separation, brought about in order to secure the Tudor dynasty, left large sections of the population with spiritual loyalty to the Pope.

    To return to CWPublisher homepage, go to http://www.angelfire.com/un/cwp/. NOTE: This is a PDF-formatted copy of Edward Terrar’s The Economic, Political, Social and Religious Beliefs of the Maryland Catholic Laboring People During the Period of the English Civil War, 1639-1660 (1996). The original 1996 edition, which is now out of print, had 467 pages of text, with an additional 13 pages of front material, which included a title page, a listing of contents, abbreviations, tables, maps and illustrations, and acknowledgments. This PDF version has 479 pages of text. There are 493 pages when the front material is included. The reason for the increased number of pages is that the spacing in the index was increased in the PDF version. Except for the index, the page numbering in the PDF version is the same as the 1996 edition. The illustrations in the 1996 edition have been eliminated from the PDF version.
