May is the month in which we honour Mary especially and Fr Mannion OP has a lovely article devoted to our Holy Mother. He makes the interesting point that Jesus spent 30 years of his life, indeed the greater part of it, at home in Nazareth with the woman who by saying ‘yes’ to God made possible the salvation of humankind. Fr Scott Op continues the theme in ‘Evangelium’ and reflects on the wondrous fact of God breaking into human history through the incarnation of Jesus, born to a woman. The Rosary is the Church’s great prayer to Mary, and in a very interesting article Sister Angela Mary OP writes about her life in the Dominican Nuns of Pius XII Monastery in Fatima. Their day is centred in the Holy Mass, the Liturgy of the Hours and Eucharistic adoration. In the first of a new series of articles on Lectio Divina, Fr Magee OCSO looks at the meaning of faith in this context and the marriage between the two. Three other women are celebrated this month, the vibrant St Thea Bowman from Mississippi, our Convert to Catholicism; Blessed Imelda Lambertini the young Protectress of First Holy Communicants and the pioneering pilot Amelia Earhart whose disappearance in 1937 still captures the imagination of many. Not forgetting the men, Fr McDonough writes about Fergil of Aghaboe! This was the abbot who famously clashed with the English missionary Boniface. Ray Hughes continues his journey on the Camino and we continue to celebrate the life of Saint Martin. In our Offers we look ahead to June, the month of the Sacred Heart and have some lovely items available.
