  • The Catholic Voice of Lancaster + November 2010

St Joseph’s primary school © Mazur/www.thepapalvisit.org.uk WWesham joined children from Catholic schools from Lancaster and all over the country at St Mary’s College, Twickenham for truly a day to remember! The event theme was “I have come so that they may have life and have it to the full”. The day was certainly a full one and was a celebration of living life to the full in so many ways. We left school at 2.00am and arrived in London at about 7.45am. By 8.00am we were through security and onto the sports field. Everyone received a ‘goody bag’ with such diverse items as a prayer card, order of service and a banana! (Is there a scriptural reference I’ve missed here?). The children were so excited, especially when we found that Lancaster Diocese were right at the front and to the left of the stage. For over an hour and a half the Master of Ceremonies - Andy Akinwolere from Blue Peter - A kept us entertained and informed until the moment arrived. Dayto We saw His Holiness arrive, visit the chapel for prayers and then start his entrance in the famous pope mobile. We sang and shouted and cheered as he went past and the children were certain he had waved just at them! Some of the responses from my four excited children were: Remember! “It was just so full of joy, I hope that one day in the future my own child might have the opportunity to do what I have done today” (Ellie), “Meeting the Pope was a memorable thing, I’m so very “ lucky because not everyone has had that opportunity” (Jack), ““When the Pope looked at me it made me feel really special as if he had really warmed to me” (Tom), Everyone was so happy and I thought about how my mum had met Pope John Paul II when he came to Wales and now it was my turn” (Ffion).

Th e Catholic Church in Liverpool also responded to urban redevelopment with ambition and innovation. As architectural expert Charles Reilly announced to readers of the New York Times in 1930, ‘ Liverpool is starting to build a second and even greater cathedral. Her new project, indeed, calls for the greatest cathedral in the world next to St Peter ’ s at Rome. ’1 Designed by Edwin Lutyens, ‘ arguably the greatest British architect of the twentieth century, ’ the planned Catholic cathedral, named the Metropolitan Cathedral of Christ, was intended to be second largest in the world and expected to cost £ 3 million.2 Th e impact of the cathedral on the city and beyond was highly anticipated: ‘ I see the cathedral then, like a rainbow across the skies radiating the true and the good ’ , wrote one prominent member of Liverpool Archdiocese.3 For the Archdiocese and, in particular for the cathedral ’ s pioneer, Archbishop of Liverpool Richard Downey (1881 – 1953), it represented an opportunity to transform the way in which Catholicism was seen both in Britain and beyond.

  • A People Who Hope in Christ
    A People who Hope in Christ A Message from the Metropolitan Archbishops of the Catholic Church in England and Wales Dear brothers and sisters in Christ, The radiance of the risen Lord shines upon us. At a time when so many shadows are cast into our lives, and upon our world, the light of the resurrection shines forever to renew and restore our hope. In the words of our Holy Father, Pope Francis: ‘In the midst of isolation when we are suffering from a lack of tenderness and chances to meet up, and we experience the loss of so many things, let us once again listen to the proclamation that saves us: he is risen and is living by our side.’ (27 March 2020) The impact of Covid-19, both nationally and internationally, has been immense. So much of what we take for granted has changed. Our health and physical interaction, our capacity to travel and gather, have all been affected. There is uncertainty in our future, especially with work and the country’s economy. As we know, very sadly, large numbers of people have died because of the coronavirus, and others have been or remain seriously ill. Keyworkers, not least in the National Health Service and care sectors, are serving selflessly to sustain the life of our nation. Our hearts and prayers go out to everyone who is suffering because of Covid-19, and to all those battling to overcome its effects. May those who have died rest in peace and those who are bereaved find comfort. When the Prime Minister announced the lockdown, this included places of worship and therefore Catholic churches.

Father John gave so much to Scouting over many years, both at national and international levels and he will be sorely missed by a great number of people. He represented us in Europe and beyond, giving a wonderful example of chaplaincy to the Scouting Movement. His work with Gilwell Park, as National Faith Adviser, did much to keep Faith on the national agenda. Within Catholic Scouting in England & Wales, his devotion to the young people in his care was second-to-none. In Advent and Lent he would provide meditations and materials for Scouts, he was ever-present at NCSF Committee Meetings.

  • The Memory of Slavery in Liverpool in Public Discourse from the Nineteenth Century to the Present Day
    The Memory of Slavery in Liverpool in Public Discourse from the Nineteenth Century to the Present Day Jessica Moody PhD University of York Department of History April 2014 Abstract This thesis maps the public, collective memory of slavery in Liverpool from the beginning of the nineteenth century to the present day. Using a discourse-analytic approach, the study draws on a wide range of ‘source genres’ to interrogate processes of collective memory across written histories, guidebooks, commemorative occasions and anniversaries, newspapers, internet forums, black history organisations and events, tours, museums, galleries and the built environment. By drawing on a range of material across a longue durée, the study contributes to a more nuanced understanding of how this former ‘slaving capital of the world’ has remembered its exceptional involvement in transatlantic slavery across a two hundred year period. This thesis demonstrates how Liverpool’s memory of slavery has evolved through a chronological mapping (Chapter Two) which places memory in local, national and global context(s). The mapping of memory across source areas is reflected within the structure of the thesis, beginning with ‘Mapping the Discursive Terrain’ (Part One), which demonstrates the influence and intertextuality of identity narratives, anecdotes, metaphors and debates over time and genre; ‘Moments of Memory’ (Part Two), where public commemorative occasions, anniversaries and moments of ‘remembrance’ accentuate issues of ‘performing’ identity and the negotiation of a dissonant past; and ‘Sites of Memory’ (Part Three), where debate and discourse around particular places in Liverpool’s contested urban terrain have forged multiple lieux de memoire (sites of memory) through ‘myths’ of slave bodies and contestations over race and representation.

    Catholic Bishops’ Conference of England and Wales Homily preached by the Most Reverend Patrick Kelly, Archbishop of Liverpool, at the Episcopal Ordination of the Right Reverend Seamus Cunningham as Bishop of Hexham and Newcastle. 12.00 noon on Friday 20 March 2008, the Feast of St Cuthbert of Lindisfarne, in the Cathedral Church of St Mary, Newcastle-upon-Tyne. Thanks be to God that the Lord at whose command we gather today is the one who ‘when he saw the crowds felt sorry for them because they were harassed and dejected like sheep without a shepherd’. Two words: Northern Rock: can stand for the tens of thousands at this time who are harassed and dejected. Thanks be to God that this day is about a willingness to allow hearts and minds to be judged, healed, renewed, transformed by this promise fulfilled among us. ‘The spirit of the Lord has been given to me, for the Lord has anointed me…He has sent me to bind up hearts that are broken, to comfort all who mourn, to give them for despondency, praise.’ But this Spirit is from the wounded side of the only Son sent not to condemn the world but sent because God so loves the world. So the greatness of heart that we plead for this day is such that every word shall be Good News, Gospel, flowing from someone who will place his whole being under the shadow of the book of the Gospels, as he welcomes not a spirit of timidity but a spirit of love and power and self control.

  • Archbishop Mcmahon and Cardinal Nichols Pay Tribute to Bishop Vincent Malone
    Press Officer Department of the Chief Operating Officer Telephone: 0151 522 1007 Email: [email protected] Archbishop McMahon and Cardinal Nichols pay tribute to Bishop Vincent Malone The Most Reverend Malcolm McMahon OP, Archbishop of Liverpool, and Cardinal Vincent Nichols, Archbishop of Westminster, have paid tribute to Bishop Vincent Malone, Auxiliary Bishop Emeritus of Liverpool, who died today aged 88. Archbishop Malcolm McMahon said: ‘Bishop Vincent had retired from his role as auxiliary bishop when I arrived in Liverpool six years ago, but he was still a very active member of the archbishop’s council and a trustee of the archdiocese. No report or set of accounts was safe from Bishop Vin’s eye for detail. As a young priest he had trained as teacher of mathematics, and numbers and diagrams certainly contributed to his view of the world or at least of the Church, but it would be very wrong to portray him as a person who was unfeeling. ‘His mild and polite manner found its fulfilment in his ministry as a priest and bishop which was characterised by unfailing kindness and respect to all those he met and served. Bishop Vincent told me that he enjoyed being an auxiliary bishop because it kept him close to people. He made a massive contribution to the life of the local church and city as dean at the Metropolitan cathedral, chaplain to Liverpool University and chair of numerous committees including the early ecumenical bodies which laid the foundations for the harmony we enjoy between churches and people of faith in these days.
