Last Monday 4th May Bishop Paul reminded us of the celebration of the Feast of the Martyrs of England and Wales. Again he leads us in prayer in the Cathedral which was bathed in sunshine pouring through the Te Deum window.
He mentions the Mass that is celebrated on a Thursday evening at 7.00pm by all Bishops of England and Wales to remember those key workers and explains that he will be remembering especially this week the staff working in all our schools supporting children and families at this time.
A retreat on the English Martyrs
During the week there were a series of short talks on the Martyrs with Saturday including a guided account of the ICON that has been written in honour of the Lancaster martyrs (see images above) followed by a time of reflection.
Day 1: England this green and pleasant land
Day 2: The storm St John Fisher and St Thomas More
Day 3: Bound and Unbound
Day 4: Girl power
Day 5: The Lancaster Martyrs
