Hospitals – urgent message. If you have a relative or a friend goes into QMC or City, please inform the Chaplaincy Department either directly, through ward staff or via your parish priest and request a visit, specifically from a Catholic Chaplain. You will then be able to receive Holy Communion or Sacrament of the Sick in hospital, go to Mass at QMC or receive a simple pastoral visit. Do not assume that your parish priest or the Catholic chaplains know you are in hospital. QMC; 0115 9249924 ext. 63799. City; 0115 9691169 ext. 56187. St Augustine’s Art and Craft Group will not meet again until March 24th 2020. Cathedral Choir Concert Members of our Cathedral Choir will be leading in an evening of Song and Organ Recital on Saturday 22nd February, at 7.30pm in Our Lady and St Edward’s Church. Tickets are available at £5 for adults, children are free. Proceeds are for a new disabled access toilet in St Edward’s Church. Capacitar Sessions - gentle exercises for wellness and healing; you can do them standing or sitting; takes place at St. Augustine's Church Hall, Woodborough Road, NG3 4QF on Monday 3rd February from 7pm to 8.30pm. For more information contact Sr Treasa 0115 950 6693. Also on Saturday 4th April there will be a Capacitar Day from 10am to 4pm which will be run by Paul Golightly. Further details on this event will follow shortly.

Today There was a group of men sitting around and talking about good and bad

• memories. As a result of their discussion, a wager was put on about reciting

something, and one young lad stood up and recited, “The Lord is my Shepherd, there is nothing I shall want.” He had had some dramatic training with his delivery and diction, and his delivery was very good – indeed, it was so very, very effective and he had to recite the psalm a second and third time to thunderous applause. The second guy got up – he was an elderly man who had a stoop and it was difficult to hear

• him. He was bent down and, away over in the corner, he recited,

“The Lord is my Shepherd, there is nothing I shall want.” And when he was finished there was total silence around the room, as each man bowed his head and began to pray quietly to himself. The young man who recited the psalm the first time, explained the two totally different receptions to the same psalm, and he said, “It’s fairly obvious that I know the psalm, but that old man knows the Shepherd.” The problem with us is that we know the psalm. We have learned all the answers, but we mightn’t know the Shepherd. If I don’t know the Shepherd, (because Christianity is about a person, Jesus Christ), then nobody will pray when I speak.

Recital Series in Cathedral Hall Our Sunday Recital Series resumes on Sunday 9th February at 12.50pm with a recital by Annie Dersy (soprano) with a programme of music by Handel, Mozart and Quilter. World Day of Prayer for Consecrated Life In 1997, Pope Saint John Paul II instituted a day of prayer for women and men in consecrated life. This celebration is attached to the Feast of the Presentation of the Lord on February 2nd. This Feast is also known as Candlemas Day; the day on which candles are blessed symbolizing Christ who is the light of the world. So too, those in consecrated life are called to reflect the light of Jesus Christ to all peoples. May they always reveal the love of Christ to those they encounter and continue to enrich our world by their dedicated lives of prayer.
