Dear Brothers & Sisters,

Sister Faustina Kowalska (Monday) died of TB in 1938 aged only 33. But devotion to Divine Mercy she inspired (because of revelations given) stir millions all over the world. Much respected by the young Fr. Karol Wojtila She was canonised by him as Pope John Paul II in 2000

St.Bruno (Tuesday) scandalised by messy church politics in 1084, founded the Carthusians, a commune of hermits in bleak hill country to protest against power politics. But he was much in demand from bishops & popes as adviser. A later generation of his monks earned a living by making Chartreuse.

Our Lady of the Rosary (Wednesday)  marks October as month of the Rosary. We always have rosary daily in chapel before 10.15 mass.

St. John Henry Newman (Friday) who was often maligned by jealous contemporaries, but his goodness & clear mind gave the church a precious legacy. Against prevailing winds of  the day, he insisted that catholic doctrine should develop to be faithful to Christ and that lay people must have a voice in this movement. A much respected preacher, he was invited by Bishop Ullathorne to give the homily at the official opening of St.Bernards Seminary on October 2nd 1873. This took place in the house chapel which is now the upstairs library here at the Friary.

St.Paulinus (Friday) 1st Bp. of York was sent by Pope Gregory in 601 as apostle to the Anglo-Saxons. He baptised King Edwin of Northumbria, and also his niece, St.Hilda of Whitby.
