Feast of Saint Benedict Mass

About This Event

In many churches there is only one Mass on a Saturday, namely the Vigil Mass of Sunday. It seems a shame to miss the opportunity of a Saturday Mass, particularly if the Saturday in question is a feast-day, as it will be in the coming week, when the feast of Saint Benedict falls on Saturday. The only Mass to be celebrated here in honour of this great saint is the 10am Mass. The founder of western monasticism in the early sixth century, he has had a seminal influence on European spirituality and culture. This is why Pope St Paul VI proclaimed him a patron of Europe back in 1964. Benedictine monks and nuns all over the world follow his Rule - the closest to us being the nuns at Tyburn and the monks at Ealing. Saint Benedict features on the altar-front design in our church, second from the left of those standing
