First Sunday of Advent and our Parish Feast day


This Sunday marks the start of Advent.

A good time to make a new effort to attend Holy Mass and prepare in a spiritual way for the birth of the Christ-child amidst the hurly burly of life.


*******

Monday is the feast of our Patron, St Catherine LabourĂ©, and while we will offer Mass in her honour on Monday, recognizing that not many people can attend on a weekday, we will also celebrate her this Sunday and pray for our parish community.

Many parishioners like to know in advance the date of our annual Carol Concert, so as to make sure not to miss it.

Here are the details.

Sunday 6th November Parish Masses at St Catherine's, Leyland


Pope St Leo the Great. Feast on Friday

The year 452 brought a shadow out of the East that lengthened over Rome. Attila the Hun was coming, and the earth trembled beneath his tread. His barbarian horde had been scorching Italy, leaving death and devastation in their wake. Cruel in torture, ravenous in plunder, and boundless in arrogance, the Hun, called the Scourge of God, razed and ravaged and rushed upon Rome. But as Attila loomed before the Eternal City, there came to meet him not an army, but a man. Out from the ancient gates of Rome passed a white-haired ancient in bishop’s raiment. The aged pope of Rome hobbled forth to hold conference with the wild Hun while the city waited and watched. A feeble old man prepared to save his flock. One of the reasons he’s called he’s Great.
