What exactly is Christianity? How would you describe it if someone asked you to sum it up in a few words? In his April article Fr Vincent Travers OP gives us an insight into a topic which we may sometimes take for granted. It was at Easter that Christ fulfilled his mission as our Redeemer. Fr Donagh O’Shea OP looks at the various meaning of the word ‘redeem’ and its significance for us as Christians at the most important moment in the history of the Church. In Echoes Patricia Hope examines the development of that most beautiful and evocative of materials, silk. It Happened this Month gives us an account of the American Civil War which in many ways has defined the history of the United States. Our Saint of the Month is Catherine of Siena, one of only four female Doctors of the Church. It is 109 years since the sinking of the Titanic, an event which still continues to capture our imaginations. John Gallagher writes about a hero of that tragic time, Captain Arthur H. Rostron.
