Hey Everyone, Hope you're all well and enjoying this lovely sunshine. We have been pretty quiet on social media these last few weeks as we've been bringing the current academic year to a close and having some rest time before summer missions begin! This summer, We'll be attending two great events. The first one is the Medjugorje youth festival and the second one is @youth2000uk Summer festival. Its not too late to get involved. Over the next few weeks we'll be sharing a lot about our summer plans and giving you the opportunity to take part. Keep updated and remember if you need anything just send us a message. #Sheffieldstudentsontour (throw back to the incredible cafe at last years festival)
Love this quote from Mother Teresa! Perspective is everything 🌷
HALLAM LADIES EVERYONE! This morning we hosted a @blessedisshe__ brunch, we made new friends, prayed and chatted away. It was seriously beautiful seeing young and old together living community. We were blown away by the amount of women that showed up. The first of many! #blessedbrunch #whoruntheworldgirls ❣️🌷☀️
Today is the Solemnity of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus. In the words of Pope Francis ‘I invite you to pray to the Heart of Jesus during the month of June and to support your priests with closeness and affection, so that they are the image of this Heart full of merciful love. And young people, draw from the Heart of Jesus the spiritual food and drink for your life so that, nourished by Christ, you are new persons, transformed in depth by this divine love.’ Mass will be at 12:30 today in the chaplaincy.
Yesterday we had the last house group of the year and it was BEAUTIFUL! We talked summer, about how it could easily be wasted watching Netflix being ‘couch potatoes’ (in the words of Papa F) and reflected upon how summer instead, could be spent running towards God, being the saints of today & using our time purposefully. We wrote letters to ourselves that we are going to open at the end of summer setting goals, thanking God for the year that’s just gone and interceding for all our plans/worries that might come in September. We then laid our letters at the feet of Jesus & surrendered it all to him. What a way to finish the year! 🎉💐

How amazing have the daily mass readings been these last few days? Yesterday we heard about how we are sons and daughters of the living God & today we were encouraged to keep faith during trials. But what really stuck out was this line in today’s gospel. How beautiful that Jesus looks at us steadily, seeing everything, our beauty, our gifts and our desires but also our sin, our hurt and our shame and still loves us! How beautiful that we can rest in the knowledge that the fathers gaze is always love.
Yesterday Sheffield University Catholic society decided to take a trip to the peaks and establish a shrine dedicated to our lady. How beautiful, they gathered, went for a long walk, prayed and had great chats. How wonderful that our mother is watching over Sheffield , interceding and praying for the mission. Mary our Mother, pray for us! 💐
Perspective is everything 🔥

It’s 9 days until Pentecost & we’d love for you to join us in praying a novena for a great outpouring of the Holy Spirit. After Jesus ascended into heaven his followers joined Mary in continuous prayer (Acts 1:13-14). 9 days later we see something incredible happen... Pentecost, a huge outpouring of the Holy Spirit upon those in the upper room! This was where the church was formed, set on fire and miracles abounded. From this beginning we have the tradition of praying a novena for a specific intention and we’d love for you to join us. We’ll be praying the novena to the Holy Spirit with the intention of being filled anew, especially if you’re studying for exams, or weighed down, or just want to be set on fire. Come Spirit of God, fall on Sheffield, on each student and on this mission. www.praymorenovenas.com/novena-to-the-holy-spirit 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊
Today marks the feast of the Ascension! At the Ascension, we see Jesus ascend into heaven, leaving his disciples with the promise that soon they would receive the Holy Spirit. How beautiful this day is. It marks the return of Jesus’ heavenly glory, it shows us that all Jesus had come to do had been accomplished and therefore able to return to the father. Lets celebrate today, remembering that the Ascension does not point to Jesus absence, but shows us that he is alive, in our midst, in a new way, never alone. Mass will be celebrated at 18:00, with a Holy Hour before hand. See you there! 😊
WHO RUN THE WORLD GIRLS! Ladies and girls of JX10, I’d love to invite you to a @blessedisshe__ brunch. We’ll get together with all the ladies of the diocese for a morning of great food, prayer & and quality friendship time! I personally loved it at uni when I got a chance to get outside the student bubble, so If you’re free get involved! If you’d like to help in anyway we’d gratefully appreciate it! Loads of loveeeee 😊
