As ever, its a packed week for the Catholic Society at UEL. If you study at Stratford or fancy a trip down there on Thursday, there will be a mass in room RB2.29 at 1pm. Father Thomas will also be in the same room on the Friday between 12noon and 2pm if anyone wants to pop in to see him.
Friday 11th sees the return of Movie Night! This week is The 13th Day, the story of what happened at Fatima in 1917. It was a prophesied event which became known as the Miracle of the Sun. For more information, watch the trailer here. The movie will start at 6pm on Friday in the chaplaincy room in North Building at the Docklands campus. And, those who were present on Sunday, don’t forget that the promised pizza will be there on Friday night rather than last Sunday! An added draw, if it was needed!
This Sunday we have another ‘short talk’, this time from Chris Leonard, of Sheffield Hallam University and Catholic Underground fame. He will be talking about ‘creating a culture of faith’ at university. Anything that can help us learn and spread the word here on campus at UEL is good, and I’m certainly looking forward to hearing what he has to say.
One final point – don’t forget too what Father Thomas said about the trip to Walsingham on 18/19 November. Due to the lack of minibus, he will be travelling to the holy shrine by car and can fit four passengers. Those who would like to attend should email Father Thomas with a short summary of why they should go. Those who have not previously been will be more likely to be chosen. Of course, if you want to make your own way there, by car or public transport, you will be more than welcome. Speak to Father Thomas before you go, though.
Antonisia and John Schroder.
PS. For those that want to catch up on previous movies that have been the subject of Movie Night, they were: Witness to Hope – The Life of Karol Wojtyla and Bakhita: From Slave to Saint.
