FEASTS THIS WEEK:
Tuesday is the Feast of St Mary Magdalene.
Mary stood by the Cross with Jesus; with two
other women she discovered the empty tomb; she
was granted an appearance of the Risen Lord
early on the same day, from which incident she
has been described as “apostle to the
apostles”. The Gospels give no warrant
for identifying her with the woman “who
was a sinner” who anointed Christ’s
feet or with Mary the sister of Martha.
Friday is the Feast of St James,
apostle. James, son of Zebedee and brother of
John, was put to death by Herod Agripps about
the year 44, being the first of the apostles
to die for Christ. His shrine is at Compostela
in Spain which is a place of pilgrimage for
many who walk there each year from long distances.
Saturday is the Feast of Ss Joachim
and Anne, parents of Mary. Traditionally
names parents of Mary and grandparents of the
Lord. St Anne is patron of Canada, women in
labour, miners, cabinet-makers and home-makers.
PERSONAL RETREATS
A retreat is a time for stopping and taking
stock of where we are and where we are going.
It is a time for renewal of energy, both spiritual
and physical. A time for prayer; a time for
reflection; a time for oneself – and there
is nothing selfish in that.
