First Blessing: “First blessings” are customarily given by newly ordained priests when first Masses are celebrated, but they may be given up to a full year after ordination. Last Sunday some parishioners took advantage of the possibility of receiving a “First Blessing” from Father David who is happy to give his blessing to any parishioner who wishes to receive it after Mass this Sunday.
Sick list: Please remember in your prayers the following members of our parish: Terry Cantle, Ida De Melo, Angela Doyle, Assunta Furno, Bernard Moyers, Irene Pallot, Mary Powell, Eva Shirreffs. 
Finances: Collection 15th July £90.94; Apostleship of the Sea an additional £4.00. Many thanks. (Cheques made payable to St. Gregory’s RC Church)
Feast of St Gregory: the feast of the patron saint of our parish is on Monday September 3rd. On Sunday 2ndSeptember, Father Anthony will be coming to celebrate Mass with us at 9.00am. It is hoped that this special occasion can be marked by a shared lunch at 1.00pm. There will be more details later. Please mark this date in your diaries.
Gift Aid explained: If you are a taxpayer, when you give money to the Church, tax has already been paid on that money. Because the Church is exempt from tax, we can claim this money back from HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC). For example, for every £10 that you give to the Church, the Church can claim back £2.50 from the Government at absolutely no extra charge to you. This applies to smaller or larger donations. It is totally painless. If you would like to join the Gift Aid scheme, please speak to Paul Carroll or Stephen Giacchino.
St Ignatius of Loyola: Born in 1491 at Loyola in the north of Spain of a courtly family, he became a soldier, 
but during convalescence from a wound, was converted to a deep love of Christ and a missionary sense. He studied theology in Paris. With companions, he formed the Society of Jesus (Jesuits), to resist the Protestant Reformation, to reform the Church from within and to educate the young in religion. He died in 1556 in Rome.
St Alphonsus Liguori: Alphonsus was born in 1696 in Naples. A lawyer who became a priest, he founded the Congregation of the Most Holy Redeemer (Redemptorists). He was a fervent preacher and an eminent  moral theologian, who opposed the rigours of Jansenism. He was much in demand as a confessor, seeking to win back the sinful by a gentle and direct appeal to the Gospel. He wrote many works of devotion which became very popular. He was forced to become Bishop of Sant’ Agata de’ Goti, but after thirteen years returned to his congregation. He died in 1787.
St John Mary Vianney: John Vianney was born in 1786 near Lyon in France. Not gifted in his studies, he had great difficulty in being accepted for ordination. He was sent to the parish of Ars, which he transformed by his preaching, his personal mortification, his life of prayer and charity for all, and particularly by his fame as a confessor – people came to him for spiritual help from all over the world. He died in 1859.

Saints of the week: Perhaps we can remember especially in our prayers this week those parishioners who share their names with the saints whose feast days occur in the next seven days.  
St Bridget of Sweden (Patron of Europe): Born in Sweden in 1303, St Bridget married in 1316 and was a member of high Swedish society. She had eight children. She and her husband lived devout lives. After her husband’s death in 1344 she lived with even greater asceticism; she received revelations and appealed to the kings of Europe and the Pope for peace and the restoration of the papacy to Rome. She journeyed to Rome for the Holy Year in 1350, and lived there for the rest of her life in poverty. She asked the Pope to approve the foundation of a religious community (now known as the Bridgetines), but this was not approved until after her death, in 1370
St James the Apostle: James was the brother of John the Apostle, son of Zebedee, the fisherman. He was present at the bringing to life of Jairus’ daughter, and at the Transfiguration. He was beheaded by Herod Agrippa in about 44AD.

Apostleship of the Sea:The Apostleship of the Sea is a Catholic charity supporting seafarers worldwide. They provide practical and pastoral care to all seafarers, regardless of nationality, belief or race. Their port chaplains and volunteer ship visitors welcome seafarers, offer welfare services and advice, practical help, care and friendship. The Apostleship of the Sea in Great Britain is part of an international network known to the maritime world as Stella Maris, working in 311 ports with 216 port chaplains around the world. 90% of world trade is transported by ship. However, the life of a modern seafarer can be dangerous and lonely. They may spend up to a year at a time away from home, separated from their family and loved ones and often working in harsh conditions. The Apostleship of the Sea relies wholly on voluntary contributions. They are only able to continue their work through the generous donations of their supporters and volunteers. There will be a second collection today for this important charity.
Feast of St Gregory:the feast of the patron saint of our parish is on Monday September 3rd. On Sunday 2nd September, Father Anthony will be coming to celebrate Mass with us at 9.00am. It is hoped that this special occasion can be marked by a shared lunch at 1.00pm. There will be more details later. Please mark this date in your diaries.
Parish Pastoral Council:minutes of the most recent meeting are on the parish website and also at the back of church. Please take a few minutes to read about the deliberations of this group which represents the parish as a whole.
Our Lady of Mount Carmel: Carmel was the place where the prophet Elijah proclaimed the faith of Israel in the one God, the meeting place of God and his people. During the crusades, Christian hermits established themselves in caves on the mountain. In the thirteenth century, they joined together in a religious community known as the Carmelites. Mount Carmel overlooks the plains of Galilee, not far from Nazareth, and is particularly under the protection of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
Saint Apollinaris: Apollinaris was the first Bishop of Ravenna in the time of the Emperor Claudius. Frequently exiled, imprisoned and tortured for the faith, he was finally martyred at Classis, a suburb of Ravenna, in the reign of Vespasian.

Bishop’s Letter: As Bishop Patrick made clear in his letter read out last weekend, the situation regarding Fr. Clement is going to take time to resolve and while this is the case there should be no judgement made in respect of him. Whilst the Bishop is doing all he can to support Fr. Clement financially, pastorally and spiritually, in the meantime he has decided to appoint Fr. John St. John as Parochial Administrator to provide for the continuing pastoral care of Syston and Sileby until the matter is resolved. Fr. John St. John will take up his ministry from the 17th September and I’m sure you will make him welcome for the time he is with you. Fr Peter.

St. Benedict: born in Norcia, Umbria, Italy in about 480, Benedict studied in Rome, and then turned his back on the world and lived in solitude in Subiaco. Disciples came to him and he went to Montecassino, where he founded a monastery. He wrote his “Rule” which established the spirituality and way of life of monastic communities ever since. He died in 550 and is one of the co-patrons of Europe.
St. Henry: Born in 973, Henry became Duke of Bavaria on his father’s death in 995 and he was crowned Holy Roman Emperor in 1014. He was married, but had no children. He was ardent for the reform of the Church, took part in synods, founded monasteries, appointed bishops of integrity. With his wife he led a semi-monastic life of prayer and discipline.
Padley Pilgrimage: The annual Hallam and Nottingham Interdiocesan pilgrimage in honour of the Padley martyrs, Blessed Robert Ludlam and Blessed Nicholas Garlick takes place on Sunday 15th July 2018, assembling at Grindleford Station at 3p.m. for the Rosary Procession, followed by Mass celebrated by Bishop Patrick.
