Come and join us tomorrow Wednesday 13 December at 10.00 a.m. for our Morning Prayer and Holy Rosary celebrating the feast day of St Lucy. She was martyred in Syracuse in AD 304 during the persecution of Diocletian. An inscription of around 400 AD referring to her survives at Syracuse, and her cult was early and very widespread. Lucy's name means 'as of light', born at dawn or daylight. This is why her feast day is kept with many candles and candle-lit processions in northern Europe, where at this time of the year the hours of daylight are very short.
