Sixth Sunday of Easter

Dear friends in Christ

Forty days after the Resurrection comes the Ascension of Jesus into Heaven. This Thursday marks the end of that time which the Apostles enjoyed with Jesus following Easter. It was a time of joy and reassurance. A time of fellowship and affection. A time when Jesus could go-over His teachings with them so that they had it clearly in their minds what He had done. Ascension Thursday is normally a Holyday of Obligation; although the obligation is still suspended (it will be restored in the near future) we still desire to celebrate this mystery of our Faith by participating at Holy Mass. The Ascension of Jesus is one of the mysteries of His life that is recalled and made present again at each offering of the Mass: ...as we celebrate the memorial of the blessed Passion, the Resurrection from the dead, and the glorious Ascension into Heaven of Christ, your Son, our Lord...

Jesus has returned to the Father so that he can intercede and prepare a place for us. From the Ascension onwards, we can keep our eyes fixed on Heaven. The Easter hymn reminds us: When the forty days were o’er, shall our hearts forget His promise: 'I am with you evermore?' and it continues on to remind us, that He within the veil has entered, robed in flesh, our great high priest; here on earth both priest and victim, in the Eucharistic feast. The sadness felt by the physical departure of Jesus is more-than compensated for by His presence with us at Mass—the Eucharistic Sacrifice—and his abiding presence in the Tabernacle.

Please keep in your prayers the children who are preparing for their First Holy Communion next month. Next weekend they will begin their immediate preparation for this Sacrament by making their first Confessions.

For the 150th anniversary of the proclamation of Saint Joseph as Patron of the Universal Church, Pope Francis published the Apostolic Letter Patris Corde, with the aim ‘to increase our love for this great saint, to encourage us to implore his intercession and to imitate his virtues and his zeal’. To mark this special Year, the Pope has approved the inclusion of seven new titles to be used in the Litany of St Joseph. These new invocations are drawn from the interventions of the Popes who have reflected on aspects of the figure of the Patron of the Universal Church. The new invocations, originally in Latin, are as follows and could be translated as: Guardian of the Redeemer, Servant of Christ, Minister of salvation, Support in difficulties, Patron of exiles, Patron of the afflicted and Patron of the poor. I hope that for our part in this Year, we shall be able to make a more fitting shrine to St Joseph in our church which is also dedicated to his patronage. I will share more details of this when some designs emerge.

May the celebration of the glorious Ascension of Jesus into Heaven this week, fill our minds and hearts with an increased desire for Heaven and, as the restrictions on public worship are gradually lifted, bring us with full hearts and mind to celebrate afresh the Paschal Mysteries.

God bless you!

CATHOLIC BISHOPS’ CONFERENCE OF ENGLAND AND WALES

Reflection by the Bishops of England and Wales

Gathering as Bishops in Conference this week, we wish to pay tribute to all in the Catholic community who have shown such courage, generosity and understanding in the face of adversity this past year. Across England and Wales, families and parish communities have risen to the challenge of sustaining one another through times of great isolation, loneliness and grief in an impressive variety of ways, spiritual, emotional and practical. We thank all who have worked tirelessly in prisons, in hospitals, care-homes and across the medical profession for giving of themselves so generously. We thank all who have worked valiantly in our schools, facing unforeseen demands and meeting them with characteristic professionalism and dedication.

We wish also to pay tribute to those who have given of their time and energy to keep open our churches as havens of peace and prayer. Churches up and down the land have realised the vision of Pope Francis that they be like village-wells where the thirsty come to drink in the midst of their journey; and centres of “constant missionary outreach.” We thank all who have developed diverse new patterns of outreach - of prayer, catechesis, study and spiritual solidarity; all who have made participation in the Mass possible through the internet.

Also prominent in this tribute should be thanks to all who have contributed to the immense effort of providing food for those most in need. The generosity shown in the distribution of so very many meals has given eloquent expression to the mercy, love and compassion which are at the very heart of God. Many have been touched by the joy of meeting Christ in the poor; and many of the poor by the joy of meeting Christ in selfless parishioners. The provision of food is often the first step into a deeper relationship of help and accompaniment, including the sharing of the gift of faith in our Blessed Lord.

‘Vibrant’ is a word which seems to have characterised so many of our parishes throughout the pandemic. We wish to salute our priests in particular for the leadership they have shown in this time of crisis. We thank them for their deep devotion to both the liturgy and to their parishioners. We commend every priest who made of his parish "a 'sanctuary' open to all” and with a particular care for the poor; and the many Deacons who have exercised with such generosity their mission of charity.

What will be the pace of our emerging from this pandemic remains as yet unclear. What is clear is the challenge we face of bringing our communities and the practice of the faith to a still greater expression and strength. As your bishops, we are aware of a threefold pattern to this challenge.

a) There are the fearful and weary, anxious about coming into the enclosed spaces of our churches; those who have simply lost the habit of coming to church. Personal contact, clear reassurance, and sensitive invitations will all be needed.

b)  There are those who will have reassessed their pattern of life and priorities. The practice of faith within the community of the Catholic Church may not be among those priorities. A gap may have opened up, or widened, between the spiritual dimension of their lives and any communal expression of that spiritual quest. They represent a particular focus and concern for our outreach.

c)  There are those whom we might describe as the ‘Covid curious', those who have come into contact with the Catholic Church through our presence on the internet – a contact we may be able to develop through our continuing presence across diverse media platforms.

In facing these challenges, we are endowed with veritable treasures which serve to resource and enrich us. Among them are our schools, in which so many are regaining confidence to come together with others. We believe our schools can indeed be bridges back to church. There is also the remarkable work of social outreach which has grown exponentially during these long months of pandemic. On this, too, we must build. But the greatest treasure is, of course, the sacramental life of the Church, and, pre-eminently, the Eucharist.

It is the Eucharist, the celebration of the Mass, that makes the Church; and it is the Church, in the gift of the Holy Spirit, which makes the Eucharist. The Holy Sacrifice of the Mass is the lifeblood of the Church. It requires our active participation and, to be fully celebrated, our physical presence.

At this moment, then, we need to have in our sights the need to restore to its rightful centrality in our lives the Sunday Mass, encouraging each to take his or her place once again in the assembly of our brothers and sisters. We face the task of seeking to nurture the sense of Sunday as “a weekly gift from God to his people” , and something we cannot do without; to see Sunday as the soul of the week, as giving light and meaning to all the responsibilities we live out each day; to see the Sunday Eucharist as food for the unique mission with which we have been endowed.

In the time to come we can do no better than to rekindle in our hearts, foster and encourage, a yearning for the Real Presence of the Lord and the practice of prayer before the Blessed Sacrament, a gift so deeply appreciated in these times of lockdown. We need to begin by fostering this in ourselves. For the Eucharist should be the cause of our deepest joy, our highest manner of offering thanks to God and for seeking his mercy and love. We need to make it the foundation stone of our lives.

The invitation to Sunday Mass resonates all the more deeply when we consider, as Pope St John Paul II reminds us in the Encyclical Letter Dies Domini, that the Sabbath rest is nothing if not a call to remember the gift of God’s Creation. The Eucharist is indeed a celebration of the created world, called into life by the Eternal Word, for the bread and wine of the earth becomes the Body and Blood of Christ who is that same Lord of all life. The Christ to whom we come so close in the Eucharist must be the foundation of our strivings, not least in the urgent task we face of caring for creation and our environment.

Pope St John Paul II spoke of our amazement at the gift of the Mass and the abiding Presence of our Blessed Lord in the Sacrament of the Altar. Herein lies our treasure, enriching our relationship with Jesus and bringing together every aspect of our life and mission. This is such an important focus for our task in the coming months.

200 Club

The 200 Club continues to provide funds to support the running of the Parish. During the last financial year, thanks to the parishioners who subscribe to the 200 Club, donations from the 200 Club funds were made to the restoration of the reredos and the repair of the bells.

We are currently looking for new members. The subscription is £5 per month, either by cash, cheque or direct debit. If you would like to join, please fill in a form which can be found at the back of the church or ring Linda Wall on
01702 558217.

Recently, there have been several occasions where a monthly prize has been won but where a change of address has not been notified to Linda, resulting in cheques going missing. It is very important that changes of address should be notified both to the office and to Linda.

Upcoming Events for Serving the Homeless

We will be holding a Flower Festival in OLL church again this year on 11th September.

Fifth Sunday of Easter

Dear friends in Christ

The parable of the vine—which is the Gospel at Mass this weekend—reminds us that we are intimately united with Jesus. Just as a vine is inter-twined, so we are in the Body of Christ. By our baptism, we have been incorporated into His Body and we are, each of us, a living part. We are organically related and function in unison. Hearing these words at Mass this Sunday should move us to pray and work in our lives, for the unity of the Church. Unity is not something that happens on its own. In all relationships we need to work for this oneness. The words of Jesus impel us to seek unity with Him, amongst ourselves, with the Church and Her Shepherds and all people of goodwill who desire a deeper union with the One God, as revealed in Jesus Christ.

We have just begun Mary’s Month. Each year during May we think of ways in which we give that place of honour to Our Blessed Mother. Any tokens of love and affection which mothers receive are welcomed and cherished. Mary is no exception, since she was, and continues to be, the Mother of those who follow her Divine Son. Honour any image of Mary that you have in your homes by giving it a special prominence during May; pray the Rosary, or a part of the Rosary each day alone or in our family groups; speak to her as a trusted friend, confidant and most beautiful of all mothers. If we honour her, she will never allow us to be dishonoured. With her for guide, you shall never go astray; while invoking her, you shall never lose heart; so long as she is in your mind, you are safe from deception; while she holds your hand, you cannot fall; under her protection you have nothing to fear; if she walks before you, you shall not grow weary; if she shows you favour, you shall reach the goal (St Bernard of Clairvaux).

May God bless you!
