Daily Mass - feast day of Saint Catherine of Sienna

Mass was offered this morning for the repose of the soul of Michael Prendergast (+), may he blessed in the Risen Lord, and those who mourn him also.

Many years ago, when I was still at university in Rome, I attended a whole lecture on the theology of Saint Catherine. The series was delivered by an Irish Dominican called Father Paul Murray. I needn't summarise what Father Murray said, because there is a nice video online which will do it for me; Father has recently put out a book on Saint Catherine. If you have an hour or so to watch it, click here. Here is a beautiful picture of one of the most inspirational Catholic women Saints that I know.
