We await advice from the Bishops of Scotland. However, many of our Stella Maris friends and colleagues around the world, as well as members of other Christian denominations, will be celebrating Sea Sunday as usual on 12 July. With this in mind, the Vatican has issued a special prayer and message for Sea Sunday. These are attached. Through our digital output we will continue to promote Sea Sunday on 12 July, particularly the need to pray for the People of the Sea, whilst reminding our supporters that the Sea Sunday collection has been postponed to December. Also, next week is Seafarers’ Awareness Week (https://www.seafarers.uk/campaigning/seafarers-awareness-week/). This annual event, organised by Seafarers’ UK, seeks to raise the profile of seafarers in wider society. This year the special focus is seafarers and their families. Please give the event your full support, as much as you are able to during these unusual times. Seafarers’ UK is one of our principal funders and it is important we get behind this important initiative. Please do share this email with your volunteers. Thank you for your cooperation.

O most holy heart of Jesus, fountain of every blessing, I adore you, I love you, and with lively sorrow for my sins I offer you this poor heart of mine. Make me humble, patient, pure and wholly obedient to your will. Grant, Good Jesus, that I may live in you and for you. Protect me in the midst of danger. Comfort me in my afflictions. Give me health of body, assistance in my temporal needs, your blessing on all that I do, and the grace of a holy death. Amen.
05.06.20 . Jacques Philippe talks on finding and maintaining inner peace. Jacques Philippe was born on March 12, 1947 in Lorraine, France. After studying mathematics in college, he spent several years teaching and doing scientific research. In 1976, he met the then recently-founded Community of the Beatitudes and answered the Lord’s call to follow Him through this vocation. With over one million copies sold in 24 languages, Jacques Philippe’s writings on themes such as prayer, interior freedom, and peace of heart have become classics of modern Catholic spirituality. Fr. Jacques will be speaking on his book, "Searching for and Maintaining Peace." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=71U3tRnRNak 04.06.20 30.05.20 Pope Francis and Archbishop Justin Welby seek 'outpouring of Holy Spirit'. Pope Francis is to take part in his first ever online service with the Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby. Follow the link Thy Kingdom Come to access this ecumenical service. Pope Francis will urge all Christians to seek a fresh outpouring of the Holy Spirit in order that they might be bearers of Christ’s love, light and hope, in a world “experiencing a tragic famine of hope” but also urges a turning away from the “selfish pursuit of success without caring for those left behind and to be united in facing the “pandemics of the virus and of hunger, war, contempt for life and indifference to others”. In the service, which can be seen on the Church of England’s digital platforms from 9am on Sunday, he says: “Today, more than ever, it is necessary to implore the Holy Spirit to pour forth into our hearts the life of God, who is love. Indeed, if there is to be a better future, our hearts must change for the better. Today our world is experiencing a tragic famine of hope. How much pain is all around us, how much emptiness, how much inconsolable grief. Let us, then, become messengers of the comfort bestowed by the Spirit. Let us radiate hope, and the Lord will open new paths as we journey towards the future.” 29.05.20 St Seraphim of Sarov taught that the purpose of the Christian life was to acquire the Holy Spirit. Perhaps his most popular quotation amongst Orthodox believers is "Acquire a peaceful spirit, and thousands around you will be saved." https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seraphim_of_Sarov 26.05.20 On the trail of the Mercian Anglo-Saxon saints https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-stoke-staffordshire-12965515 20.05.20 Pentecost Novena https://www.cbcew.org.uk/home/events/pentecost-novena/ 19.05.20 Fr Matt has decided to broadcast aspecial series of eight weekly talks on St Teresa of Avila’s teaching on prayer, ( https://www.stjosephs.org.uk/Live ).
