St Martin Magazine - St Martin Magazine - April 2025

この号では

During the month of April we celebrate Easter Sunday, the high point of the Church’s Liturgical Calendar. Our cover, which features one of the striking Stations of the Cross in Lourdes, reminds us of Lent, the forty days before the Resurrection during which we journey with Christ before and during his Passion. In his Editorial Fr Walsh reminds us that we are a Risen People who are not bound by grief, but rather by our link to the Life which Jesus has purchased for us. Continuing the theme, Dr Iva Beraneck explores why we wait until Easter to sing Alleluia - when we can celebrate finally leaving our sadness behind in the empty grave. Fr Conor McDonough begins a two-part series on the interior life of Daniel O’Connell, the great hero of Catholic Emancipation who was not always a believer! Ray Hughes visits Vilnius the city of the Divine Mercy and we visit Poland in ‘It Happened This Month’ for an account of a fateful encounter in Auschwitz. An article on the 7 Sorrows of Our Lady provides an excellent meditation for the Season of Lent. Friends of Saint Martin has an important notice about a change in our Receipt Policy which has come about because of an increase in the price of postage by An Post. Do take note of our delightful Special Offer exclusive to the Apostolate of a hand painted tiny pocket statue of St Martin, complete with sweeping brush - an ideal gift for yourself and anyone who loves this miraculous saint. Also, back by popular demand, The Presence of God by Anselm Moynihan OP is available in our web store of by direct order.
