DIVINE MERCY Taken from Saint Faustina’s Diary Today I was in heaven, in spirit, and I saw its inconceivable beauties and the happiness that awaits us after death. I saw how all creatures give ceaseless praise and glory to God. I saw how great happiness in God, which spreads to all creatures, making them happy; and then all the glory and praise which springs from this happiness returns to its source; and they enter into the depths of God, contemplating the inner life of God, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, whom they will never comprehend or fathom. This source of happiness is unchanging in its essence, but it is always new, gushing forth happiness for all creatures. Now I understand Saint Paul, who said, "Eye has not seen, nor has ear heard, nor has it entered into the heart of man what God has prepared for those who love Him."

WHITE RABBIT RISE Theatre UK Tour 2015 St Mary’s Lowe House are delighted to welcome the professional Christian theatre company RISE Theatre, who will be performing their brand new original play ‘White Rabbit’ at: Lowe House Church on Thursday 19th March at 7:30pm ‘White Rabbit’ is a powerful story about two people and their journey to faith – an imaginative and moving tale of love, loss and self-discovery. The play is about the central themes of Lent and Easter and might be an appropriate way for parishioners to ‘do something extra’ and reflect on this most special of seasons. The play also provokes questions that might fruitfully be used as discussion points for a follow up meeting or to anchor a discussion in an already existing parish group. For booking information and tickets please contact Fr Simon Gore on 01744 740460/467 or s.gore@animateyouth.co.uk Tickets are £3 for ages 18 and under, and £5 for ages 18+
