Memorial of
St Martha
 |
"Jesus liked to stay at the house of Martha,
Mary and Lazarus, his friends at Bethany, when he was
in Judea. One of these visits has ever remained dear
to Christian memory. On that occasion Martha, busily
serving the Master, asked Him to persuade Mary to help
her. Without in any way reproaching Martha, Jesus
explained to her that certain souls, called by God,
should choose a better part still — the primary duty
of listening to Him and contemplating Him. " (From
Catholic Culture, visit the site for
more information on St Martha.) |

Memorial of
St Ignatius Loyola
 |
"In the year 1521 a cannon ball fractured the
left leg of Captain Ignatius Loyola, the future
founder of the Jesuits. While he was convalescing,
Ignatius read about Christ and His saints and thus
turned wholly to God. He then undertook to equip
himself for Christ's service by acquiring a good
classical and theological education. The members of
the Society of Jesus became the shock troops of the
Church in the battle against the spread of
Protestantism in Europe, as well as one of the
greatest foreign mission organizations that the world
has known. Ignatius died on July 31, 1556." (From
Catholic Culture, visit the site for
more information about St Ignatius Loyola.) |

Really Terrible Orchestra Concert in the
Cathedral. Tickets for the concert are on sale via the
Fringe Box Office. Please order quickly if you wish to be
guaranteed a seat at the concert.
"Five-star the
RTO continues to lead the revolution for the musically
disadvantaged with its unique musical interpretations. A
triumph that proves bad is good. With its blend of humour,
musicality and lack of technical prowess, the players surge
through a lively programme taking the audience with them,
creating a wave of excitement and hope that nothing will go
wrong. The RTO never disappoints."
(From the
Fringe Programme.)
