St Joseph’s Day<br />

at Oswaldkirk<br />

Fr Edgar Miller, priest-in-charge at St<br />

Aidan’s, Oswaldkirk, periodically holds<br />

lunches for parishioners and others. St<br />

Joseph’s Day was chosen for the latest<br />

event. St Joseph is patron of the carpentry<br />

workshop at the Abbey which Fr Edgar<br />

established ten years ago. This has become<br />

a favourite of many pupils of St Martin’s<br />

<strong>Ampleforth</strong> who take woodwork as one of<br />

their regular activities under Fr Edgar’s<br />

tuition. The celebration began with<br />

Solemn Mass at St Aidan’s where Fr Edgar<br />

was assisted by Fr Peter James and Fr<br />

Marek Zukowski (pictured above right). Fr<br />

Marek, a diocesan priest from the Czech<br />

Republic, has been a regular visitor to<br />

<strong>Ampleforth</strong> in recent years. Guests then<br />

moved across the road to Oswaldkirk<br />

Village Hall where, after grace in Czech,<br />

lunch was served. This had been cooked<br />

by Neil Swailes, a chef at the Monastery.<br />
