Today is the anniversary of the dedication of our cathedral church in Nottingham, in 1844, by the then Monsignor Wiseman.

Happy anniversary, Nottingham Cathedral and The Catholic Diocese of Nottingham .

South Somercotes S. Peter, lovely church, rather empty, the chancel especially. The best parts are the surviving rood-screen, and the font with the instruments of the Passion on its faces.

Stopping at Saltfleetby All Saints on the road to Mablethorpe, to see one of our outstanding medieval churches, although seemingly in a state of some neglect. The leaning tower, what looks like an original roof, and screens (although scrubbed by protestant wrath).

The great archbishop of Canterbury Stephen Langton (1207-1228, b.1150) was born in our general area. Think Magna Carta.

Here’s what must have been (in part) his parish church…

"Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends." These words of Christ come to life in the witness of Saint Maximillian Kolbe who chose to give up his life 85 years ago today at Auschwitz, in place of another prisoner with a family to return to.

A Polish Franciscan friar, missionary and priest, Saint Maximillian became a beacon of light - Christ's light - in the darkness of Auschwitz. Always a strong advocate of the Gospel, he continued to minister to the other prisoners at the concentration camp, and was often badly beaten and chastised for it.

May Saint Maximillian remind us that even in the midst of immense suffering and injustice, it is possible to choose love. For Love overcomes fear and hatred, as Christ overcame Death.

Saint Maximillian Kolbe, pray for us that we may learn to love courageously and live our faith boldly.
