Fr Michael Murphy RIP. In your charity, please pray for the repose of the soul of Fr Michael Murphy, who died peacefully on 11 April. A priest from the Southwark archdiocese (in Streatham Hill and as such, Fr de Malleray’s neighbour in Clapham Park from 2001) Fr Murphy had retired in Warrington, his hometown. He was a great supporter of St Mary’s Choir and Music. Among other involvements, he had sponsored organ formation for one of our young adults and was considering enrolling another in the organ program. He also helped meet the costs of the LiveMass installation and sanctuary alarm at St Mary’s. A member of the Warrington Arts Council, Fr Murphy was well known in town, where he eagerly promoted culture and social interaction.

He was rarely seen wearing clericals and some of those who knew him may not have realised his status as a retired priest. He would still help out however, as priest chaplain on cruises and, closer to us, in a parish south of Warrington. He also joined the FSSP clergy on a couple of occasions for some clergy meals. His funeral will take place at St George’s Cathedral in Southwark. We at St Mary’s will also have a Mass of Requiem for him (details to be announced soon). May he rest in peace.

 

Thurs. 19 April 1pm-3:30pm: Monthly Family Catechism Day. All families welcome.

 Weekly Family Day: As soon as further DBS checks are completed, our monthly family day will occur weekly. After our usual 12.10pm Mass, there will be a picnic and 2 afternoon classes following a set curriculum. We will end with Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament before joining (those who wish) the Junior Choir practice. Info/contact: Alison Kahn penketh.kahns@gmail.com

Fr Michael Murphy, RIP

Dear Friends,

In your charity, please pray for the repose of the soul of Fr Michael Murphy, who was found dead at his house in Warrington on 11 April.

He had undergone an operation this past Lent and had also had pneumonia. I saw him last at St Mary’s after the Easter Mass and he did look very frail, although in good spirits.

Fr Murphy was my neighbour as Parish Priest at SS Simon and Jude’s in Streatham Hill, London, when I started my ministry in the Southwark Archdiocese in 2001. When our move to Warrington was announced in 2015, it was a surprise to learn in an email from him, that he was a Warringtonian and had come back for retirement in his hometown. He was a great supporter of St Mary’s Choir and Music. Among other involvements, he had sponsored organ formation for one of our young adults and was considering enrolling another in the organ program. He also help meet the costs of the LiveMass installation and sanctuary alarm at St Mary’s. Fr Murphy was well known in town, where he eagerly promoted culture and social interaction.

He was rarely seen wearing clericals and some of those who knew him may not have realised his status as a retired priest. He would still help out as priest chaplain on cruises and, closer to us, in a parish south of Warrington. He also joined us on a couple of occasions for some clergy meals.

His funeral will take place at St George’s Cathedral in Southwark. We at St Mary’s will also have a Mass of Requiem for him. May he rest in peace.

The bags have already made their way to Scotland to be sorted.

Many thanks for the loving engagement of St Mary’s parishioners in doing this work.
