Menevia Latin Masses for the next two weeks

Next Sunday's EF Mass, 27th April, will be at 12 noon at St Joseph's Cathedral, Swansea.

The following Saturday (3rd May) Mass will be 5pm at The Church of The Sacred Heart, Morriston, near Swansea and there will be the crowning of the May Queen in honour of Our Lady whose month it is.

There is no EF Mass the weekend of 10th May.


This is the image of our Queen
Who reigns in Heaven above;
Of her who is the hope of men,
Whom men and angels love!
Most holy Mary!

This homage offered at the feet
                                                                Of Mary's image here
To Mary's self at once ascends
Above the starry sphere.
Most holy Mary!



How fair soever be the form
                                                           Which here your eyes behold,
Its beauty is by Mary's self
Excell'd a thousandfold.
Most holy Mary!


                                                          Sweet are the flow'rets we have culled
This image to adorn;
But sweeter far is Mary's self,

That rose without a thorn!

Most holy Mary!
