PASTOR’S CORNER
We begin our Lenten Season on 18th of February with
the celebration of ASH WEDNESDAY. I urge you to
come and have your foreheads marked with ashes as
Catholics witnessing the Death and Resurrection of
Our Lord Jesus Christ in our everyday lives. You may
go to other churches in Southampton at your
convenience. And also come to confession to other
priests.
Ash Wednesdays Mass times in Southampton
Churches: St Edmund’s 6:30am; 7:30pm; St Joseph’s
12:15pm. St. Boniface’s 10am and 8pm. West End St.
Bridget 10am, Hedge End Our Lady of the Assumption
7:30pm.
CHINESE CHAPLAINCY. For Rite of Election: Joseph
Bing Guang, Angela Anqi, Catherine Joyce, Anthony
Tian You, Qiao Ying, Qiao Ling.
On 19th February is the start of a week celebration of
Chinese New Year celebrated by 1,368,000,000
Chinese. There are 433,150 (2011) in UK. 53 per cent
no religious affiliations. The Diocesan Chinese
Chaplaincy based here in St. Patrick would like to
reach out to the Chinese in Hampshire and IOW.
Many of them are going to Protestant churches and
even to the Jehovah Witnesses because they welcome
them. However the enigmatic smile of Pope Francis
continues to mystify them that we pray they come
and welcome the true Church that Jesus established in
St. Peter’s legacy.
Xin Nian Kuai Le，新年快乐 (Mandarin),
Gong Hei Fard Choy，恭喜发财 (Cantonese)
Happy CHINESE NEW YEAR to all.
