Dear Brothers & Sisters Sts. Marcellinus & Peter (Monday)- martyrs who died 304, beheaded in Rome under emperor Diocletian. Reputedly members of the Roman clergy, they are held in special honour in Rome itself, as a basilica was built over their tombs. St.Charles Lwanga & Ugandan Martyrs (Tuesday) included teenage converts, put to death in a savage persecution of the 1880’s. Pope Paul VI declared them saints in 1964 apologizing that it was beyond his remit to canonise the Anglican martyrs who also died with them. St Boniface (Thursday) a Benedictine monk from Crediton, Devon, preached in Germany and later was consecrated bishop. He then was able to organise the Church in Germany and was martyred preaching among the Frisians. St Norbert (Saturday) was born in 12th cent. Xanten, Germany. He turned away from a worldly life & retired to found an order of priests at Prémontré (France) combining prayer life & pastoral work. In England they were known as White Canons & today have a priory in Peckham ********************** On Saturday we have the youth football tournament hosted by KYT on our lawn. begins with 1015 mass in church. Next Sunday is Pentecost the day the Spirit came on the apostles & began the early church. We have a candidate, Roberto, to be confirmed this day. Second collection next Sunday goes for Brushstrokes the church project in Smethwick to help refugees. Many recall the inspired presentation of Lucy Clark of Brushstrokes at our 2024 PPC AGM. Refugees in the UK have no friends in politics. Only the church supports, recalling that Jesus, Mary and Joseph were once refugees in Egypt.
