Dear Brothers & Sisters St.Michael and all the angels (Monday) St.Michael was guardian of all Ireland & along with St.Ignatius is patron saint of our Sacred Heart Congregation. If we are in the midst of a spiritual struggle he is the one to invoke: ‘Holy Michael the archangel defend us in the day of battle ………………..’ St.Jerome (Tuesday) translated the bible from Greek & Hebrew into Latin, then the common language so his work was known as the ‘vulgate’ and became a benchmark for bible translations. St.Theresa of the Child Jesus (Wednesday) a Carmelite Sister from Lisieux died of TB at 24. Her fame came from counsel given gave to missionaries from an enclosed convent & her diary The Little Way which today connects with so many people across different cultures. When her relics came to Britain in 2009, journalists were dumfounded that many prisoners in Winson Green fervently queued up to venerate them. The Guardian Angels (Thursday) are honoured as the spirits who watch over us & protect us from harm. St.Thomas de Cantelupe (Friday) is one of 3 ‘St.Thomas’ Chancellors of England (cf. Sts.Thomas Becket & Thomas More). As Bp. of Hereford he was known for holiness & service of the poor. His family owned Aston Cantlow village near Henley-in-Arden where St.John the Baptist church honours his memory St Francis of Assisi (Saturday) dear to many, loved poverty, nature, animals, and above all Christ. Pope Francis held him up today as saint for protection of the earth, our common home. Saturday: Guild of St Stephen: 12.00 Mass of Thanksgiving, St.Chads Cathedral. Altar Servers & families invited to attend this Mass led by Bp David Evans
