Exit Collection  APF World Mission Sunday

Dear Brothers & Sisters,

Today is World Mission Sunday: Pope Leo  invites us all to support Missio – his charity for world mission – through a special collection. This day of prayer, solidarity & giving unites Catholics worldwide to share the good news of God's love. To donate, use Missio envelopes, or call 0207 821 9755 or see missio.org.uk to give a gift, set up a Direct Debit & Gift Aid donation if poss.

Pope John Paul II (Wednesday) had his inaugural mass as pope this day in 1978, refusing the usual coronation. The  pope from Poland helped hasten the collapse of communism & the end of the cold war. Some parishioners still remember his 1982 visit to Britain, and heard his message of peace at Coventry Airport  at the height of the Falklands War. In 2014  he was canonised by Pope Francis.

John of Capistrano (Monday) was a 15th century Franciscan who died of bubonic plague in Croatia. His courage in suffering still inspires us.

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.
