CATHOLIC MISSION
CROWDS AT ST. PATRICK’S Crowded congregations have been the rule at St. Patrick’s Church, Greymouth, daily since the special mission commenced there on Sunday last, and the discourses of the Marist Missioners, Rev. Fathers McCarthy, Joyce, and Spillane, have been followed with the greatest interest. Some of the sermons already delivered have been based on “Judgment,” “Hell, and “Sin.” Last evening was a special night with procession and sermon in honour of the Virgin Mary. This evening’s subject will be “Social Evils.’ The Mission -will continue until the end of next week, with three Masses daily, at 6’a.m., 7 a.m. and 9 a.m., and short instructions after the 6 and 9 o’clock Masses. The evening services, at 7.30 o’clock, consist of Rosary, Sermon, and Benediction.
BROADCAST SERMONS LONDON, November 13. A suggestion that congregations should listen to sermons from invisible preachers was made in the report of the Church Assembly Commission on the staffing of parishes. It is suggested that services in isolated churches should be relayed from a Cathedral and elsewhere, and thus the shortage ot clergy would be met.
