 Exit Collection : Guild of St Stephen

Dear Brothers & Sisters,

Today our retiring collection is for the Guild of St Stephen, the Guild that all our servers at Mass belong to. This collection is to help purchase the medals in Bronze, Silver and Gold.

St Mary Magalene (Monday) A faithful disciple of Christ, Mary ministered to his needs after having seven devils cast out from her. She witnessed his crucifixion, was present at his burial, and was the first to see the risen Lord. She was commissioned by Christ to proclaim the good news.

St Bridget (Tuesday) was born in Sweden. She was the mother of eight children. After her husband’s death, she dedicated herself to an ascetic and contemplative life.

St Sharbel Makhluf (Wednesday) was the son of a Lebanses farmer. He became a Monk and Hermit, and had a great devotion to the Blessed Sacrament.

St James (Thursday) he is called the “Greater” because his vocation to serve Christ preceded that of the other apostle of the same name. he was the son of Zebedee and was called by Jesus together with his brother John. James was one of the three Apostles, along with Peter and John who witnessed the Transfiguration.
