John Reid • St Michael’s Hospice needs £10,000 a day to continue in operation – and I am sure we are all aware of how much we need this wonderful, local, health care facility. We are to take part in the Hospice’s ‘Moonlight & Memories’ sponsored £10k walk on the evening/night of Saturday 18 September, and we invite all our parishioner friends to join us by donating to the cause – forms may be found at the rear of our churches (Gift Aid if possible) or donations may be handed to any of us. John is walking in memory of his wife, Margaret, Vicky too in her mum’s memory and to support her Dad on the way, and Ingrid will be remembering her sister, Anna. John Reid, Vicky Chainey & Ingrid Finch • SVP Battle: As the local SVP is not currently running at full capacity, they have generously donated a very large amount of brand-new clothing that was gifted to them, to St Michael’s Hospice. Because they currently do not have the manpower to sell or donate these clothes themselves, they decided our local hospice was a very worthy and valuable recipient, as their own fundraising has been greatly impacted during the pandemic. News from our Diocese • Marriage Anniversaries Mass: Anyone celebrating a wedding anniversary that has particular significance for them is welcome to join the annual celebration of marriage at St Joseph’s Church in Guildford. This year the celebration, with Bishop Richard, is on Saturday, October 9th with Mass at 11.30. In order that we can be Covid compliant we do ask that everyone books their space via our website. Please use the following link Diocesan Marriage Anniversaries Mass and Reception (09-Oct-2021) · ChurchSuite Events or contact the Diocesan Marriage & Family Life Adviser, Katherine Bergin at [email protected] (Places are limited to 150). We so look forward to celebrating with you! Saints of the Week Memorial of St Margaret Clitherow, Anne Line & Margaret Ward, Martyrs – 30th August This day commemorates the three canonised female martrys of the English Reformation: St Margaret Clitherow (1556-1586), a native of York and convert to Catholism, who sheltered priests and was pressed to death in her home town on 25th March 1586; St Anne Line (1567- 1601) from Dunmow, Essex who also harboured priests and was hanged at Tyburn on 27th February 1601; St Margaret Ward (+1588), born in Congleton, Cheshire, who worked in London and attempted to help a priest escape from prison. She was hanged at Tyburn on 30th August 1588. All three were canonised in 1970 amongst the Forty Martyrs of England and Wales. Memorial of St Aidan, Bishop, Missionary & Saints of Lindisfarne – 31st August St Aidan or Aedan (+651) was an Irish monk who joined the community at Iona and was sent to preach the Gospel in Northumbria. He was consecrated bishop and settled on the island of Lindisfarne, with the support of King St Oswald and his successor St Oswin. After St Aidan’s death in 651, the ‘Holy Island’ of Lindisfarne continued to produce many saints instrumental in the evangelisation of northern England, until the monastery was devasted by Vikings. These saints include the bishops St Fina, St Colman, St Eata, St Eadfrith, and, of course, St Cuthbert (4th September). Feast of St Gregory the Great, Pope, Doctor, Feast – 3rd September St Gregory the Great (540-604) belonged to a Roman patrician family and served as a magistrate before embracing the monastic life. He acted as papal legate at Constantinople and was elected Pope in 590. He tightened church discipline and liturgical practice, reorganised the lands belonging to the Holy See and sent St Augustine to convert the Kingdom of Kent. He is consequently called the ‘Apostle of the English’ and, thanks to his theological and pastoral writings, is a Doctor of the Church. Memorial of St Cuthbert, Bishop – 4th September St Cuthbert (c.634-687) worked as a shepherd in Northumbria until he joined the monastic community at Melrose under St Eata. He moved to Lindisfarne and did much to spread the Gospel in the area, before embracing the eremitical life on the isle of Farne. In 684 he became Bishop of Hexham, but quickly exchanged Sees with St Eata, who was by now Bishop of Lindisfarne. He was known for the holiness of his life and his many miracles. Buried orginally at Lindisfarne, his body was later translated to Durham and found to be incorrupt. • The office remains open on Mondays and Thursdays from 9.30am – 12.30pm. • The Parish Pastoral Team send all parishioners their prayers and good wishes. Vatican News Juba (Agenzia Fides) - "Our sisters were killed cold bloodedly", says Sister Christine John Amaa, of the Congregation of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, providing details of the murder of Sister Mary Daniel Abut, and Sister Regina Roba victims of an ambush along the Juba-Nimule highway on August 16. According to reports, the two nuns were part of a group of nine sisters when gunmen attacked their bus. "Our former Superior General, Sr. Mary Daniel Abut, who served the Congregation of the Sisters of the Sacred Heart of Jesus from 2006 to 2018, and Sr. Regina Roba were killed cold bloodedly on their way back to Juba after the celebrations of the centenary of the parish of the Assumption of Our Lady", says Sister Amaa. Following the ambush of unknown armed men, says Sister Amaa, the nine nuns "tried to escape and hid in the surrounding bushes". The criminals managed to find the two nuns and killed them cold bloodedly. The Archdiocese of Juba has announced five days of mourning to commemorate the two nuns. "On behalf of the Administration of the Catholic Archdiocese of Juba, I wish to inform the public that all Catholic ecclesial institutions (universities, seminaries, colleagues, kindergartens, primary and secondary schools) of the Catholic Archdiocese of Juba will be closed for four days to commemorate the late Sister Mary and Sister Regina from today August 17 until August 20 and work will resume on August 23", reads a statement from Fr.

  • Lesser Feasts and Fasts 2018
    Lesser Feasts and Fasts 2018 Conforming to General Convention 2018 1 Preface Christians have since ancient times honored men and women whose lives represent heroic commitment to Christ and who have borne witness to their faith even at the cost of their lives. Such witnesses, by the grace of God, live in every age. The criteria used in the selection of those to be commemorated in the Episcopal Church are set out below and represent a growing consensus among provinces of the Anglican Communion also engaged in enriching their calendars. What we celebrate in the lives of the saints is the presence of Christ expressing itself in and through particular lives lived in the midst of specific historical circumstances. In the saints we are not dealing primarily with absolutes of perfection but human lives, in all their diversity, open to the motions of the Holy Spirit. Many a holy life, when carefully examined, will reveal flaws or the bias of a particular moment in history or ecclesial perspective. It should encourage us to realize that the saints, like us, are first and foremost redeemed sinners in whom the risen Christ’s words to St. Paul come to fulfillment, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” The “lesser feasts” provide opportunities for optional observance. They are not intended to replace the fundamental celebration of Sunday and major Holy Days. As the Standing Liturgical Commission and the General Convention add or delete names from the calendar, successive editions of this volume will be published, each edition bearing in the title the date of the General Convention to which it is a response.

    Liturgical Calendar DECEMBER 2017 LECTIONARY FOR SUNDAYS: YEAR B ADVENT Advent has a twofold character: as a season to prepare for Christmas, when Christ’s first coming to us is remembered; and as a season when that remembrance directs the mind and heart to await Christ’s Second Coming at the end of time. Advent is thus a period for devout and joyful expectation. The playing of the organ and other musical instruments, and the decoration of the altar with flowers should be done in a moderate manner, as is consonant with the character of the season, without anticipating the full joy of the Nativity of the Lord. The same moderation should be observed in the celebration of Matrimony. Eucharistic Prayer 4 is not used in this Season.

  • CWL Margaret Clitherow.Pdf
    The life story of Margaret Clitherow, is at once ordinary and extraordinary. She was born in Middleton, England, in 1555, of protestant parents. Possessed of good looks and full of wit and merriment, she was a charming personality. In 1571, she married (arranged) John Clitherow, a well-to-do grazier and butcher (to whom she bore two children). They lived in ‘The Shambles’. Shortly after her marriage, Margaret converted to Catholicism. Her husband remained a Protestant, but was not hostile to his wife's religion. He paid her fines for not attending Protestant church services and looked the other way when she sheltered priests in their home and educated their children in Catholicism. The Clitherow home soon became one of the main places of refuge for fugitive priests in England. Margaret had a secret cupboard with vestments, wine and bread for Mass, as well as a "priest's hole" to hide the cleric himself. In 1586, there was a crackdown on remnants of Catholicism in the North. John Clitherow was summoned and asked about the whereabouts of his son, who was studying abroad to become a Catholic priest. He angrily refused to give any information. The Clitherow home was searched, but, as usual, the priest had left through a window and the authorities found only a small group of children at ordinary lessons. Unfortunately, however, among the group was a Flemish child whose fear of the authorities showed on his face. They seized him and threatened him with a flogging; he immediately told them everything he knew about Mrs. Clitherow's Catholic activities and even showed them the secret cupboard.

  • Easter Sunday of the Resurrection of the Lord
    The Church of Saint Boniface April 4, 2021 Easter Sunday of the Resurrection of the Lord You seek Jesus of Nazareth, the crucified. He has been raised; he is not here. (Gospel) Diocese of Worcester Office of the Bishop 49 Elm street Worcester, Massachusetts 01609 Easter 2021 My dear brothers and sisters in Christ, Imagine the joy of Christ’s grieving followers gathered in the Upper Room when on Easter the Risen Lord suddenly appeared and said, “Peace be with you.” Their joy and peace at Christ’s Victory must have been unbounded as they recognized Him in their presence. But not all of Christ’s followers shared that joy. Saint Thomas, who was absent, experienced not joy but doubt. Two other disciples after hearing of Christ’s Resurrection, instead of immediately joining the others, departed Jerusalem and were downcast. Even when Jesus drew near and spoke to them of the Scriptures, they did not recognize Him. Only in the breaking of the bread (the Eucharist) did they recognize Him. Only then did they return to Jerusalem to join the disciples assembled in the Upper Room and share in the joy of Easter. On this Easter Sunday, after a year of COVID isolation, when we seek peace and joy amidst doubts and losses we can profitably reflect on the importance of gathering at the Eucharist. As Jesus came to the disciples gathered together in Jerusalem so, too, He is most present to us, not in our individual reflections upon the Scriptures, but when the Scriptures and Eucharist are celebrated at Mass.

  • College Martyrs
    TUTOR GROUP MARTYRS Class A – Ashley Blessed Ralph Ashley Ralph Ashley served as a cook at Douai College France. He went to Spain in 1590 and became a Jesuit Lay Brother. He returned to England in 1598 and served with Father Edward Oldcorne. He was captured in 1604 and was terribly tortured and executed. Class C – Clitherow Saint Margaret Clitherow Margaret Clitherow was a butcher’s wife in York. In 1574 Margaret became a Catholic and an active helper of the Douai priests. She also ran a Catholic school for her children and neighbours. Officers found vestments worn by priests in her house and so on 25th March 1586 she was crushed to death. She took a quarter of an hour to die. Her two sons became priests. Class J – Jones Saint John Jones John Jones was a Welshman. He appears in 1587 as a priest working among the Catholics in a Prison. This work was cut short when his disguise was discovered, and he was arrested and imprisoned at Wisbech Castle. However he did escape and made his way to the continent. He returned to England in 1592, and two years later was a prisoner once more at Wisbech. He was martyred on 12th July 1598. There was an hour’s delay in his execution because the hangman had forgotten his rope. Father Jones made use of time in prayer and addressing the crowd. Class L – Line Saint Anne Line Anne Line and her husband were both converts and though both were disinherited because of their faith they managed to live quite comfortably until 1586 when a priest was arrested whilst saying Mass in their house.

  • Diocesan Calendar for East Anglia 2021
    Diocesan Calendar 2021 161 DIOCESAN CALENDAR FOR EAST ANGLIA 2021 “Christ’s saving work is celebrated in sacred memory by the Church on fixed days throughout the course of the year. Each week on the day called the Lord’s Day the Church commemorates the Lord’s resurrection. Once a year at Easter the Church honours the resurrection of the Lord and his blessed passion with the utmost solemnity. In fact, through the yearly cycle the Church unfolds the entire mystery of Christ and keeps the anniversaries of the saints.” (GNLY 1) Preliminary Notes n This Calendar is based on the GENERAL ROMAN CALENDAR, the NATIONAL CALEN­ DAR as contained in the Roman Missal (2010) and the revised DIOCESAN CALENDAR. n The titular and anniversary of dedication of each church are kept as Solemnities. Lest they be overlooked, it is advisable to mark them in this Calendar. n Local observances are permitted of Saints or Beati connected in some way with the locality, as through birth, ministry, death, or custody of major relics. The Bishop should be consulted in each instance. n On the ‘green’ ferias per annum (of the year) a wide choice of Mass formula is available: EITHER of any of the 34 Sundays per annum (with the prayers of the Sunday selected, or of another Sunday, or those provided ad diversa), OR of any Saint mentioned on that day in the Martyrology, OR of any votive Mass or Mass ad diversa, OR of any Mass for the dead (provided that the daily Mass formula is only used when the Mass is, in fact, applied for the dead).

  • OF MARGARET CLITHEROW By
    335 THE “TRIAL” OF MARGARET CLITHEROW by K a t h a r i n e M. L o n g l e y It was no tragic accident, a fortuitous and unrepeatable set of circumstances, which led to the Crucifixion. Aelked Graham, “The Christ o f Catholicism”. Prom long before the writing of Aristotle’s “Politics”, men have known that the laws of society are not merely the creation of that society which may then abrogate or bend them at will. When St Peter proclaimed to the Sanhédrin that “obedience to God comes before obedience to men” (Acts 5.29) he was stating not new revelation but the ancient natural law, which was to be restated by St Thomas Aquinas, St Thomas More and all men of clear mind to this day. The fundamentals of human law are not ours to play with, but are ours to live by and to reflect in our own lives—even to the point of death. When St Margaret of York, that is Mrs Margaret Clitherow, died in 1586 (a year after 27 Eliz I c 2, the “Act against Jesuits, Seminary Priests and other such like dis­ obedient persons”, an act which made it felony to harbour or relieve a priest), she died for her Lord and for his law. Like More before her, she claimed rightly that there was no law in England which could justly touch her, and like him she died innocent before the law. Improper legislation is no law at all, and a fortiori the misuse of legal processes and powers : her “trial”, immensely more complex than it seems at first, was no trial at all.
