But when the Spirit of truth comes he will lead you to the complete truth, since he will not be speaking as from himself but will say only what he has learnt; and he will tell you of the things to come. He will glorify me, since all he tells you will be taken from what is mine. Everything the Father has is mine; that is why I said: All he tells you will be taken from what is mine.’" – John 16:12-15, which is today's Gospel.

Humbert of Romans asserted, ‘She was of great help in establishing the Order ... and it is to be hoped that she will bring it to a good end’ (Opera 2, 70-1). Our Order has never ceased from its foundation to acknowledge the Patronage of the Blessed Virgin, to continuously experience it and to commend it to the hearts of the brethren and the sisters, so that encouraged by this maternal help, they might adhere more closely to their Mediator and Redeemer as they labour to carry out their mission of salvation in the world (cf.

He professed all knowledge of the eternal Gospel.

London Charterhouse
"“Good Jesus, what will you do with my heart?” These were the last words – the final prayer – of Saint John Houghton, a Carthusian monk who lived a totally enclosed life of contemplative prayer, Prior of the London Charterhouse who was gruesomely executed at Tyburn with three others on this day [4 May] in 1535. St John Houghton, who is depicted in the windows in our Resurrection chapel, was the first of the 284 canonised and beatified Martyrs of the English Reformation whom we honour on this feast day... So the night before St John Houghton and his companions were arrested, in their monastery in London (not far from Smithfield where, very briefly, the last Dominican priory of the Reformation period is to be found), St John Houghton celebrated a Mass of the Holy Spirit. Because, as today’s readings remind us, it is the Holy Spirit, the personal Love of God, that inflames the martyrs with holy zeal for truth, with a burning charity that enables them to give their hearts …More

On the 4th of May, we celebrate the feast of "the English Men and Women martyred for the Catholic Faith 1535–1680 and beatified or canonised by the Holy See. On this day in 1535 there died at Tyburn three Carthusian monks, the first of many martyrs, Catholic and Protestant, of the English reformation. Of these martyrs, forty two have been canonised and a further two hundred and forty two declared blessed, but the number of those who died on the scaffold, perished in prison, or suffered harsh persecution for their faith in the course of a century and a half cannot now be reckoned. They came from every walk of life; there are among them rich and poor, married and single, women and men. They are remembered for the example they gave of constancy in their faith, and courage in the face of persecution." The photo is of a reliquary with various relics of the English Martyrs, from the crypt at Tyburn Convent, the National Shrine of the English Martyrs.
