The Pursuit of Robert Emmet’s Grave

O! BREATHE not his name! let it sleep in the shade, Where cold and unhonoured his relics are laid; Sad, silent, and dark be the tears that we shed, As the night dew that falls on the grave o’er his head. But the night dew that falls, though in silence it weeps, Shall brighten with verdure the grave where he sleeps; And the tear that we shed, though in secret it rolls, Shall long keep his memory…

The greatest work you will ever do

Anne and Joachim.

The parents of Mary. And Jesus’ grandparents.

They are today’s saints. And background characters in the Gospel narrative.

Deep background. There’s even less about them in the Gospels than the one-off characters that surround Jesus’ birth (like Simeon or the Magi). As in nothing.

Anne and Joachim didn’t make it into the Bible.

So, why do we care about them? What’s the point of having a feast for people who are this invisible?

Because – and this goes hard against the spirit of our own age – invisible does not equal unimportant.

Truth be told, some of the most important work ever done is never seen.

We’ve got a blind spot when it comes to people who do great things. Or even just people who are well-known.

We like to think of them in isolation. Towering, singular, self-made. As if they did it all by themselves.

Which couldn’t be further from the truth. Because no one – none of us – gets anywhere alone.

All of us are where we are because countless people have invested their time and effort in us. Equipping us, forming us, building us up, encouraging us. Making sure that we had what we needed. Whether for a moment or for a lifetime.

This is one of the many reasons why we make such a big deal about Mary. This is what she did for Jesus. She’s a big part of why Jesus is who He is. That’s obvious.

But how did Mary become Mary? Anne and Joachim.

They are why Mary became Mary. Because they answered God’s call. They used the gifts that God gave to them to lift her up. That is why we remember them, because they show us what we are called to do.

God gives you and me the same call, when he entrusts us with the gifts of our lives. God gives us the gifts of our lives – our skills, our abilities, our resources, and even our time – not for ourselves, but to use for others. To lift them up.

When you use your God-given gifts to help someone, you are being true to your God-given nature. You are being who God called you to be.

If you have ever wondered why there is such joy in helping someone? This is why.

Because the greatest work you will ever do is lifting up someone else.

St Faith’s Day

A Maiden’s Garland dated 1953. Source: Wikipedia

Today is St Faith’s Day. Faith was a third century Christian martyr put to death during the Roman persecutions under the Emperor Diocletian in Gaul. She was allegedly and vividly burned to death under a slow flame after she refused to make sacrifices to the pagan gods.

Virgins’ Crowns were commonly awarded on St Faith’s Day to unmarried women of ‘unblemished reputation’. The practice slowly died out, but at St Mary’s Church at Abbots Ann, near Andover in Hampshire, the tradition continues. After the death of a local “virgin”, a hazel-wood garland is decorated with paper gloves alongside the crowns themselves, suspended from the church’s gallery. Apparently the gloves symbolise a throwing down of the gauntlet to anyone who would question the chaste status of the deceased virgins. The earliest crown at St Mary’s dates from 1718 and these days the award is open to men as well as women but, significantly, no crown has been awarded since 1978.

On this day in 1643, Sir Ingram Hopwood rode speedily from the field after the early Civil War battle of Wincey in Lincolnshire. His steed carried the Royalist officer all the way back to his home in Horncastle, but much to his household’s horror, Sir Ingram arrived minus his head. Although head and body were eventually reunited in burial, almost inevitably, Sir Ingram’s ghost has been restless ever since, making him the original Headless Horseman.

ST ANN'S WELL AT ST ANNE'S PARK

The well itself dried up in the 1950s, and although Dublin City Council made several attempts to relocate the source, it remains dry as of 2021.

A HOLY WELL NOW DESCRIBED AS A WISHING WELL This was difficult to photograph as there was little natural light available. The notices within the grounds and the tour guide, aimed at children, refer to the well as a wishing well but I am not convinced that it was ever a wishing well and as I have never seen any coins within the structure I suspect the most visitors are not convinced either. St.…

#OTD in 1851 – Death of Anne Devlin, in The Liberties, Dublin.

Born in Rathdrum, Co Wicklow. Her cousins, Michael Dwyer and Arthur Devlin, took part in the 1798 Rebellion.
