Dear Brothers & Sisters, Today is World Mission Sunday The Church unites in prayer for mission activity. Exit donations today go to the Universal Solidarity Fund to meet needs of Catholic communities too young, small or poor to support themselves. Info: missio.org.uk/wms. Pope John Paul II (Tuesday) celebrated his inaugural mass as pope this day in 1978, refusing the usual coronation. The first pope from Poland, he was instrumental in hastening the collapse of communism & the end of the cold war. Many people in our parish still remember his 1982 visit to Britain, and were at Coventry Airport at Pentecost to hear his message of peace at the height of the Falklands War. In 2014 he was canonised by Pope Francis. Anthony Mary Claret (Thursday) was sent as a missionary bishop from Barcelona to Cuba 150 yrs ago. His dedication to the poor & opposition to corruption earned him enemies and he survived 11 assassination attempts before he was recalled to Spain! He founded the Claretian Order of priests and brothers who carried on his ministry by educating the clergy & the young and using modern media. Cedd (Saturday) isn’t as well known as his brother Chad, our Diocesan patron (feast in March). Coming from Northumbria, educated at Lindisfarne he was missionary to the Saxons and founded a Diocese in Essex. He died in a 664 AD pandemic having witnessed a peaceful accord between Latins & Celts at the Whitby Synod. ************ *Vinnie Holliday? Next Sunday’s exit collection is an entirely optional one-off appeal for a local 7-yr old boy with an extremely severe heart condition to enable him to stay in school. ******************* Mass intentions: we often have Fr. Dominic to concelebrate at 10.15 mass, so a second intention will be celebrated some days.
