As Cardinal Mercier said : "When prudence is everywhere, courage is nowhere."                                                                                  From Cardinal Sarah : "In order to avoid hearing God's music, we have chosen to use all the devices of this world. But heaven's instruments will not stop playing just because some people are deaf."                                                                                              Saint John-Paul II wrote: "The fact that one can die for the faith shows that other demands of the faith can also be met."                                                 Cardinal Müller says, “For the real danger to today’s humanity is the greenhouse gases of sin and the global warming of unbelief and the decay of morality when no one knows and teaches the difference between good and evil.”                                                  St Catherine of Siena said, “We've had enough exhortations to be silent. Cry out with a thousand tongues - I see the world is rotten because of silence.”                                                  Chesterton said, “The Christian ideal has not been tried and found wanting. It has been found difficult; and left untried.”                                                Brethren, Wake up!

LENT TALK - ST JOHN'S HOSPICE

The Day-Centre at St John's Hopsice
This evening, the Wednesday Lent course at St James's Spanish Place continues with a talk by Andrew Gallini, the Director of Clinical Services at St John’s Hospice which is part of the Hospital of St John and St Elizabeth. The treatment of the terminally ill – and their proper palliative care – is a crucial area of modern medicine and social provision: this should be a fascinating and instructive evening. 

Refreshments are offered after the 6pm Mass in the social centre at St James's Church, where the talk will be given at 7pm – followed by questions and discussion, finishing at 8pm (Compline is sung at 6.40pm in church that same evening).
