It seemed that I was on a very vast flat land surface, full of people surrounded by thick darkness. They were walking, but did so as though they had lost their way and could not see where they set their feet. Someone beside me said, ‘This region is England’. Then I saw the Supreme Pontiff, Pius IX. He was dressed in a majestic fashion, carrying in his hands a splendorous light, and advancing amidst the multitude of people. As he advanced, the darkness gradually disappeared and the people were bathed with so much light that it seemed noontime. The friend said, ‘This light is the Catholic religion, which must illuminate England’.” Pius IX said to Don Bosco: "This narration confirms in me my determination to work without rest in favour of England, which is already the object of all my solicitudes."

  • 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.

  • Quafter Concluded from Page 18
    Quafter Concluded from page 18. Previous to the days of railways, when roads were bad and communication difficult and expensive, Friends did not often go far from home. Heads of families, sometimes accom­ panied by their sons and daughters, would occasionally go to the Quarterly Meetings, but we can see by the intermarriages of families that acquaintanceship and society were generally limited to those who resided in the neighbourhood. Thus, in a county, the centre of a Monthly Meeting, we find, say, half a dozen families whose members were continually intermarrying. In the County Wexford, for instance, situated as it is in a corner of the island, there were the families of Davis, Woodcock, Sparrow, Martin, Poole, Sandwith, Goff, and Chamberlin, who married and inter­ married again and again. Cork people married Cork people, and so it was in Limerick and in Waterford, to a degree which nowadays we do not realise. Marriages between Ulster and Munster were, in the eighteenth century, very uncommon. Dublin, naturally, was a kind of meeting- point, and its importance as the capital, and being the seat of the largest Monthly Meeting, led to many marriages there of couples of whom one at least resided in the country. The old rule of not allowing second cousins to be passed for marriage of course very much limited choice. So many in that relationship have been united since the rule was relaxed that, we may take it, if such alteration had not taken place, a dead lock and a break up would have occurred. While the change, and, perhaps, that of allowing first and second cousins4 also to many, can hardly be regretted, it is to be hoped that the latitude sanctioned by London Yearly Meeting as regards first cousins may continue to be forbidden in this country.5 All are agreed that as regards consanguinity 4 What we in this country understand by this term, is the relationship between a person and the child of his first cousin.

  • Pagan Survivals, Superstitions and Popular Cultures in Early Medieval Pastoral Literature
    Bernadette Filotas PAGAN SURVIVALS, SUPERSTITIONS AND POPULAR CULTURES IN EARLY MEDIEVAL PASTORAL LITERATURE Is medieval pastoral literature an accurate reflection of actual beliefs and practices in the early medieval West or simply of literary conventions in- herited by clerical writers? How and to what extent did Christianity and traditional pre-Christian beliefs and practices come into conflict, influence each other, and merge in popular culture? This comprehensive study examines early medieval popular culture as it appears in ecclesiastical and secular law, sermons, penitentials and other pastoral works – a selective, skewed, but still illuminating record of the be- liefs and practices of ordinary Christians. Concentrating on the five cen- turies from c. 500 to c. 1000, Pagan Survivals, Superstitions and Popular Cultures in Early Medieval Pastoral Literature presents the evidence for folk religious beliefs and piety, attitudes to nature and death, festivals, magic, drinking and alimentary customs. As such it provides a precious glimpse of the mu- tual adaptation of Christianity and traditional cultures at an important period of cultural and religious transition.

  • 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.
