Fr de Malleray is in Limerick for a yearly gathering of Catholic families organized by Catholic Voice: https://www.lumenfidei.ie/.

New hymnbooks. We have invested in a new set. Surprisingly light for its dimensions, each blue volume offers a great choice of hymns, and the kyriale (Kyrie, Gloria etc) is included at the end in ‘modern’ notation for easier participation by the congregation.

Welcome to three new Choir members. Contact Fr Verrier for an audition if you would like to join our choir – including Junior choir: iverrier@fssp.org

May he rest in peace: Jim (David) Verrier died peacefully last Sunday morning.

His Mass of funeral will take place at St Mary’s on Friday 7^th December, 12:10pm.

Contact St Mary’s clergy if you would like to secure a traditional rite of funeral at St Mary’s. From experience, relatives may not take such a wish into consideration unless notified in writing; not in one’s will though, as it will be disclosed too late.

We can help you write down your preference.

Please pray for many more priests to be ordained with our Fraternity. Like Simon, Lydia, Peter, Stephany, Peter, Bartolomiej, Dorothy, Jerome and William, who will be enrolled in our international prayer network for priestly vocations and ministry last 21^st Nov, feast of the Presentation of Our Lady – make your prayer for vocations more efficient, visiting www.fssp.org/en/help-us/confraternity-of-saint-peter/.

 This Week’s Mass Intentions: 

The following Mass requests have been said this week as private Masses: Sean Keenan, Jack Ashworth, Mary Fitch, Patrick Keenan, Josephine Creegan.

Sacred Music at St Mary’s: Despite recent changes, we at St Mary’s Shrine have every intention to continue and actively support our long-standing musical tradition. After over a century, it would have stopped in 2015, had priestly ministry not continued after the withdrawing of Ampleforth and Liverpool clergy. We thank our choir members for their generous service over the years. Liturgical singing aims at glorifying God, providing inspiration for worshippers.

Six months ago, Fr Ian Verrier, FSSP stepped in with short notice to prepare and help with the music at our priestly ordination. A professional musician, Fr Verrier has worked successfully with St Mary’s singers since then. He will continue to do so for the foreseeable future, in his new capacity as Organist and Choir Master, effective this Sunday, 11^th Nov. We invite anyone interested to contact him to join St Mary’s Choir, including children for St Mary’s Junior Choir: iverrier@fssp.org.

Fr Verrier read Music at The University of Birmingham and pursued postgraduate cello performance at The Royal Northern College of Music (RNCM) and gained a Post Graduate Certificate in Education with specialist string teaching at the RNCM and The Manchester Metropolitan University. He plays the cello, harpsichord, organ and piano. After completing his studies, he taught Music and directed the choir and chant schola in a professional capacity at an international boarding school for two years. Following this, during his seven years at our international seminary he served as organist, led the polyphonic choir and the Gregorian chant schola.

PRIORY CAMPAIGN: We have just over 1/3 of the asking price: further donations are gratefully received. Please pray for an affordable agreement. Contact malleray@fssp.org for any inquiries.

Congratulations to Calin and Diana Matei whose second child Victoria, was baptised at St Mary’s yesterday by Fr Verrier. Please pray for little Victoria now a child of God, and for her family.

460 alive / 8 deceased…

We offered last Thursday a Solemn High Mass of Requiem for the deceased members of the Priestly Fraternity of St Peter. As a young and growing community (30 years old), we are fortunate to have so far very few members deceased. But soon our senior members will reach the end of their lives – unless many more of us die as martyrs.

Meanwhile, please pray for many more priests to be ordained with our Fraternity. Like Simon, Lydia, Peter, Stephany, Peter, Bartolomiej, Dorothy, Jerome and William, who will be enrolled in our international prayer network for priestly vocations and ministry next 21^st Nov, feast of the Presentation of Our Lady – make your prayer for vocations more efficient, visiting www.fssp.org/en/help-us/confraternity-of-saint-peter/.

O Lord, grant us priests! O Lord, grant us holy priests! O Lord, grant us many holy priests!

Four Last Things Day: any 18-35 welcome on 17 Nov.

Juventutem London Day of Recollection

with Fr Armand de Malleray FSSP.

Saturday, 17 November 2018 11:00-17:00

St Mary Moorfields, 4-5 Eldon Street, EC2M 7LS London

November focuses on the afterlife. On that month, Catholics celebrate the saints in heaven (1st Nov); and intercede for the Holy Souls in Purgatory (2nd Nov). On 11th Nov in Europe, we commemorate the end of the First World War, when victims died on an unprecedented scale. In England, by special indult, a Holy Mass of Requiem is even allowed on a Sunday to pray for those who died in battle. Those various motives are articulated in the doctrine of The Four Last Things: death, judgment, hell and heaven (the latter includes purgatory as its accidental antechamber). Comprising many fundamental dogmas, The Four Last Things is a most salutary doctrine. 

During this recollection, Fr de Malleray will address questions such as: Why do we die? Can we change our minds after death? Is God bound to give us a last chance? If hell exists, is it empty? Does it last forever? Can we help souls in purgatory? Are all saints in heaven equal? And many more… During a convivial lunch in the church basement, we will be able to discuss informally these questions.

We welcome any young adults and young professionals 18-35 to attend this day of recollection

· 11am-12noon conference (40 mins talk + Q&As);
· 12noon-1pm Holy Mass;
· 1pm-2pm Lunch;
· 2pm-3pm Conference (40 mins talk + Q&As);
· 3pm-4pm Rosary and Tea;
· 4pm-5pm third conference (40 mins talk + Q&As) and departure.

On all the days from November 1^st through November 8^th inclusive, a plenary indulgence, applicable only to the Poor Souls in Purgatory, is granted to those who visit a cemetery and pray even if only mentally for the departed. There must be one visit for each day one seeks to gain the indulgence; one visit will not apply for several days. Any public cemetery with Christian tombs will do. The nearest one is 5 minutes walk from St Mary’s: St Elphin’s, Church Street, WA1 2TL.

                                    Conditions:

1. Only one plenary indulgence can be granted per day.
   2. It is necessary to be in the state of grace, at least by completion of the work.
   3. Freedom from attachment to sin, even venial sin, is necessary; otherwise the indulgence is only partial. (By this is meant attachment to a particular sin, not sin in general.)
   4. Holy Communion must be received each time the indulgence is sought.
   5. Prayers must be recited for the intentions of the Holy Father on each day the indulgence is sought. No particular prayers are prescribed. One Our Father and one Hail Mary suffice, or other suitable prayers.
   6. One must be absolved in confession the fortnight before or following.

912 Requiem Masses in 24hrs!

Last week we received the yearly statistics of the FSSP. We have 304 priests (460 members in total). Since each of our priests will have offered three Holy Masses of Requiem on 2^nd November, this makes 912 Holy Masses for poor souls in Purgatory offered within one day, starting in New Zealand & Australia, following with Europe and Nigeria, reaching America and Colombia, ending later that day in California.

Every hour then, 38 FSSP priests offered the Divine Victim for the holy souls of our members, Confraternity members, benefactors and holy souls in general.

 PRIORY CAMPAIGN: More Prayers Needed!

We are so DEEPLY GRATEFUL to all of you for the £541,256.36 raised since 18 July.

In addition, there is about £50,000.00 of Gift Aid: but this money will be sent to us by HM Revenue too late for purchase: it can only be used for conversion work later on. Put simply then, we are still short of £208,743.64 to buy even only one of the two buildings.

Please pray that the vendor will let us buy even part of one building for a just price. We hope to reach an agreement this week, please God.

Meanwhile, further donations are gratefully received.

Contact malleray@fssp.org for any inquiries.

Why Catholic missions? Last Sunday’s homily is on vimeo.com/296567126 (oops! 22 mins – it took longer than intended…)

On All Souls’ Day (Nov. 2^nd ) a plenary indulgence, applicable only to the Poor Souls in Purgatory, is granted to those who visit a Catholic church and there recite one Our Father and one Creed.

On all the days from November 1^st through November 8^th inclusive, a plenary indulgence, applicable only to the Poor Souls in Purgatory, is granted to those who visit a cemetery and pray even if only mentally for the departed. There must be one visit for each day one seeks to gain the indulgence; one visit will not apply for several days. Any public cemetery with Christian tombs will do. The nearest one is 5 minutes walk from St Mary’s: St Elphin’s, Church Street, WA1 2TL.

Conditions for both indulgences:

1. Only one plenary indulgence can be granted per day.
   2. It is necessary to be in the state of grace, at least by completion of the work.
   3. Freedom from attachment to sin, even venial sin, is necessary; otherwise the indulgence is only partial. (By this is meant attachment to a particular sin, not sin in general.)
   4. Holy Communion must be received each time the indulgence is sought.
   5. Prayers must be recited for the intentions of the Holy Father on each day the indulgence is sought. No particular prayers are prescribed. One Our Father and one Hail Mary suffice, or other suitable prayers.
   6. One must be absolved in confession the fortnight before or following.

Reminder on All Saints: “On Sundays and other holy days of obligation the faithful are bound to participate in the Mass.” (cf Catholic Code of Canon Law, 1247). A grave cause is needed to excuse from the obligation. In case of doubt, consult your priest in advance. Missing Holy Mass on those days without a grave cause is a mortal sin.

Thank you to Br Vincent-Mary Hoare, FSVF, and Peter Kahn for singing the Mass with Fr de Malleray as our singers are away for half term.

Autumn Count of average number of Confessions heard/week: 2015: 14; 2016: 32; 2017: 30; 2018: 45.
