Music Lessons.

Currently staying in Jesus Youth centre as our kitchen is getting refurbished. Some of th emusically talented jy friends were there and volunteered to take some guitar and drum lessons. I learnt a bit too along with children. Feel so great.George was so adamant that he wouldn't let anyone to take his place. Looks like he enjoyed striking the drum and strumming the guitar.



Brodshall Garden & Victorian house



Broadsworth hall is a wonderful Victorian house with all the grandeur which comes with this era. Superb gardens with beautiful flowers and trees with sunken  garden and lawns. The flowers are changing with the season.The head garden certainly knows his job.The house was built in the 1860's, but became gradually more and more run down as money became tighter until in 1990 it was gifted to English Heritage. Whilst the structure of the building has been renovated .



We loved it and It was a spontaneous visit. Blessed with some glorious sunshine during the day.The gardens were the best bit because they were exceptionally beautiful and really well restored.


Probably the impressive of all English Heritage properties. Worth visit this beautiful place. This visit was a beautiful birthday gift to me too. We invited some of the jy to have some meal and cut the cake.

A visit to York

 Since we are the members of  English Heritage, we thought it is high time to visit some places. York is one of the  places we are fascinated to visit as it is of historic city.There are many remains of Roman empire. We started with Holy Mass in St Wilfred church and to Shambles.
The Shambles is often called Europe's best preserved medieval street, surrounding maze of narrow, twisting lanes and alleys as well. The street itself is mentioned in the Domesday Book.The Shambles has the effect of a time machine, transporting you back to the Elizabethan period.The name "Shambles" comes from the Saxon "Fleshammels", which means, "the street of the butchers", for it was here that the city's butcher's market was located.

One building of note in The Shambles is the home of Margaret Clitherow. She was arrested in 1586 on the charge of harbouring Catholic priests. To make matters worse, she had regular Masses said in her house, and hid clergy vestments there. The authorities condemned her to death by pressing (crushing beneath a heavy weight). Margaret Clitherow was canonized in 1970, and her home is now a shrine.




Then to Clifford's Tower which is all that remains of York Castle. William the Conqueror built a wooden castle here in 1086,That building saw one of the most horrifying episodes in York's colourful history in 1190.
A mob of citizens rioted against the Jewish population of York, and 1190 of the Jews took refuge inside the castle. Many of the Jews committed suicide rather than allow themselves to be captured by the bloodthirsty mob outside, and more died when the building was set on fire. The remainder were slaughtered by the mob.

Feast of the Nativity of Our Lady

It was the Nativity feast of Our Lady and feasts of other Mary's at home.Great day for many who loves Mary the mother of God and the first birthday of our god child too. Children went out for a walk in our nearby park and did a decade of rosary. Once they came back we cut the cake and went for the JY prayer gathering and had a blessed day.

We rejoice that the Mother of God is our mother too. Let us often call upon the mother of God as the Cause of our Joy too which is one of the beautiful titles of Mary.
