However, although we do have eager postulants petitioning for investiture in the Order, a suitable date that would suit everyone and in liaison with hotels and venues, at this relatively late stage could not be found. It is also clear that some members are perhaps still not comfortable with travel and coming to events just yet. With all that in mind, and in the hope that the Covid situation will be much clearer in a few months, it is hoped that we might have an Investiture in the late Spring or Summer of 2022.

Previously this has just been the feast of St Martha. The full text of the decree can be read below.</div><div><br /></div><div>They already share this feast day in the Benedictine calendar:</div><div><b><br /></b></div><div><b>Heavenly Father, </b></div><div><b>your son was received as an honored </b><b>and welcome guest in the home of Bethany. </b></div><div><b>Keep us close to the Master in our prayer and work that, blameless in his sight, </b></div><div><b>he may welcome us into our eternal home, </b></div><div><b>who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever. </b></div><div><b> </b></div><div><b> </b><i>Benedictine Missal supplement.</i></div></div><div><i><br /></i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>*******</i></div><div><i><br /></i></div><div><div>The Lord’s raising of Lazarus from the dead is an anticipation of resurrection and a sign of eternal life for the rest of us who are baptized into the Mystical Body of Christ. Resurrection from the dead becomes, with this passage from the Gospels, a powerful “game-changer” in the life of every human being. The death and subsequent raising of Lazarus evokes in each of us the knowledge that we do not make ourselves, that God is the only Creator of who we are and what we are about. This gesture of the Lord’s invites each of us to a deeper faith in the Messiah.</div><div><br /></div><div>So, why is honoring all three characters crucial in our Christian life? Each person: Mary, Martha and Lazarus are as one in the friendship with Jesus. If friendship, then fidelity, and perseverance, gratitude and hospitality.</div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">*******</div></div><div><i><br /></i></div><div><b><br /></b></div><div><b>CONGREGATIO DE CULTU DIVINO ET DISCIPLINA SACRAMENTORUM</b></div><div><br /></div><div>Prot. N. 35/21</div><div><br /></div><div><b>DECREE</b></div><div><b>on the Celebration of Saints Martha, Mary and Lazarus</b></div><div><b>in the General Roman Calendar</b></div><div><br /></div><div>In the household of Bethany the Lord Jesus experienced the family spirit and friendship of Martha, Mary and Lazarus, and for this reason the Gospel of John states that he loved them. Martha generously offered him hospitality, Mary listened attentively to his words and Lazarus promptly emerged from the tomb at the command of the One who humiliated death.</div><div><br /></div><div>The traditional uncertainty of the Latin Church about the identity of Mary - the Magdalene to whom Christ appeared after his resurrection, the sister of Martha, the sinner whose sins the Lord had forgiven - which resulted in the inclusion of Martha alone on 29 July in the Roman Calendar, has been resolved in recent studies and times, as attested by the current Roman Martyrology, which also commemorates Mary and Lazarus on that day. Moreover, in some particular calendars the three siblings are already celebrated together.</div><div><br /></div><div>Therefore, the Supreme Pontiff Pope FRANCIS, considering the important evangelical witness they offered in welcoming the Lord Jesus into their home, in listening to him attentively, in believing that he is the resurrection and the life, and accepting the proposal of this Dicastery, has decreed that 29 July be designated in the General Roman Calendar as the Memorial of Saints Martha, Mary and Lazarus.</div><div><br /></div><div>The Memorial must therefore appear under this title in all Calendars and Liturgical Books for the celebration of Mass and the Liturgy of the Hours; the variations and additions to be adopted in the liturgical texts, attached to the present decree, must be translated, approved and, after confirmation by this Dicastery, published by the Episcopal Conferences.</div><div><br /></div><div>Anything to the contrary notwithstanding.</div><div><br /></div><div>From the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments, 26 January 2021, Memorial of Saints Timothy and Titus, Bishops.</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>Robert Card.

We come to the end of a year when so many
have endured so much suffering in so many ways brought on by the Covid 19 pandemic. Let us pray for
all those who have died. Let us stand with those who have been bereaved. Let us recall that we have
all suffered emotional and mental distress through fear and through being kept apart from our loved
ones and friends. Let us stand together with those who have found their incomes disappear or their
businesses struggle. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">Perhaps what we will remember most is the necessity of being apart. Not least, that for the most part
we have not been able to gather together in the Order, either nationally or internationally. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">Our Order is called after St Lazarus and it's founding charism that of caring for those suffering from
leprosy. We know from the Scriptures and we know it remains true today, that those suffering from it
are often excluded from society. The warmth of the embrace of family and friends, one of the most
basic of human needs, denied to them. This year, we have all shared in that feeling. But our Order began
precisely to combat that; to find ways to give them that comfort of care. So likewise, we must do so
today with courage and dignity in the face of that which afflicts us. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">The precautions we live under are a sacrifice for the greater good, so that more of us may live to see
another day. Let us be inspired to find new ways to reach out and care for one another. When we
cannot hold hands we can still hold one another in prayer as we gather in spirit with the Holy Family
this Christmas. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">The new life we celebrate each Christmas is the renewal of that which God has given each of us - His
life that courses through our world, which re-invigorates our faith. The many tragedies of Covid 19 have
also been the cause of so many acts of kindness and generosity that give us hope. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">I pray that this Christmas will bring each of us new hope as we look to the future year with the strength
of God's grace within us. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><i>S.E.
