  • Catholic Bishops Conference of England and Wales
    CATHOLIC BISHOPS’ CONFERENCE Mass of Welcome Cardinal Vincent Nichols’ Homily westminster cathedral, 28 february 2014 Thank you, all, very much, for coming to this Mass of Welcome. You have certainly made me feel just that - most welcome and wonderfully supported by your prayers and good will. In return may I say a little about the marvellous events in Rome over last weekend. The public Consistory last Saturday was a moment of such exuberance. I enjoyed it thoroughly. And I also learned, immediately, the deep esteem and respect in which Cardinals are held. Salutes all around; a sharp clicking of heels from the Swiss Guards; freedom to wander anywhere within the Basilica of St Peter’s; endless smiles and joyful greetings! So I was able to make my way over to greet our own Cathedral Choir, singing alongside the Sistine Choir. What a special moment. Then, next day, our choir met Pope Francis personally and gave him a brief impromptu concert. He readily expressed his thanks and admiration. The choir sang on two occasions: the public Consistory on Saturday, when the 19 new cardinals were created, through the imposition of the red biretta and the giving of a ring, and the solemn celebration of Mass with the Holy Father on Sunday. I experienced these two emotional events as a real deepening of our bonds with the Holy Father, the successor of St Peter, around whose tomb we were actually gathered. They were also moments of infectious joy, shared, I believe, by all present. On the following day, Monday, we went to the tomb of St Paul, in the great Basilica just outside the walls of Rome.

  • An Introduction to the Theme of World Meeting of Families 2018 Pastoral
    An Introduction to the Theme of World Meeting of Families 2018 The theme for each World Meeting of Families is chosen by the Pope. In choosing The Gospel of the Family: Joy for the World, as the theme for the ninth World Meeting of Families in Dublin, Ireland, Pope Francis invites us to reflect on a theme that was central to the Synodal process that led to his post-Synodal Apostolic Exhortation Amoris Laetitia: On Love in the Family. ‘The Church and The Gospel of the Family’ was a key theme in the Preparatory Document for the III Extraordinary Assembly of Bishops in October 2014, a document that was the subject of unprecedented consultation among the faithful of the Church across the world. While the preparatory document does not give a specific definition of the term, ‘The Gospel of the Family’, it does convey at least three senses in which this relatively new phrase in the Church’s tradition can be understood: • The family, founded on the marriage of a man and woman, is part of God’s plan from the beginning. The ‘Good News’ of the family is therefore an indispensable part of the joyful message of the Gospel that the Church proclaims. • The family is the principal agent of evangelisation of its own members. As the first school of faith and love, the Christian family is often where we ourselves first come to know Jesus and his love. • The family proclaims the Gospel to the World. The Christian family, by its witness to the life and love of Jesus, is a principal agent of evangelisation to the world.

  • Chapter One St Clement's Parish
    CHAPTER ONE ST CLEMENT'S PARISH On 29 May 1660, John Evelyn found himself in the Strand and watched the return to London of King Charles II - "I stood in the Strand and beheld it and blessed God. And all this without one drop of blood but it was the Lord's doing". Neither place nor people more typified the changes taking place than that group of spectators who stood with Evelyn in the Strand. During the previous forty years, the area had been developed on a massive scale. Although prohibited by Royal Proclamation, new building had sprung up along the Strand, in Drury Lane, Covent Garden, Long Acre and Lincoln's Inn Fields. When the parish of St Clement Danes had acquired a new burial ground in Portugal Street in 1638, the area was still so rustic that it had been nicknamed "Green Ground" and this land, surrounded by hedges and a wooden gate, had been let out for sheep to graze. Barely more than a decade later, a new market had been established nearby by the Earl of Clare. Clare Market was no Covent Garden with its elegant piazza. Here the buildings were jerry-built and swiftly packed with the poorest form of tradesmen, people who by lack of training could never trade among the guilds of the City of London but nevertheless sought to undercut their more professional neighbours on the other side of Temple Bar. With the king came a restoration of both the constitution and England's Established Church. That the Church too should be restored was in itself nothing short of a miracle.

  • SUMMER MUSINGS (FROM the CONSORTIUM) (Part Seven) (Final Part)
    SUMMER MUSINGS (FROM THE CONSORTIUM) (Part Seven) (Final Part) My sisters and brothers in the Risen Lord, greetings to you in the Holy Spirit of the Risen One! I hope your summer went well in the Lord and if you are still in that mode, that it continues to go well for you! This is the last issue in our series, Summer Musings. The Consortium had to publish something over this summer because so much kept happening over the summer. Pope Francis really did not take any real holiday at this time because he is driven to accomplish what God is asking him to do: he has been gently chastised for not taking a real holiday but it is understandable that at his age (80 years) he has a lot to do before he dies. He also desires very much to establish the new Church before his death to such an extent that It will not be easily overturned by others when he does die; this probably is part of his mission in the Spirit. September still technically is part of summer until the first Fall/Autumn day which this year begins on September 22 (2016). And for some people summer-time still continues into September – not for many of us but for some fortunate ones! On this score, this edition can still be titled Summer Musings because practically all the research and writing and editing was done before September 22! Hence technically we can still call this issue a summer issue! I know I am rationalizing quite a bit here and stretching a bit but it does serve my purpose.
