  • Parish Priest's Report 2011
    The Oratory Catholic Church of St Aloysius, Oxford Parish Priest’s Report 2011 2011 has been another busy and grace-filled year for our parish, with many events to report. In addition to the statistics attached, we have also seen two ordinations: both of the same person – Fr Nicholas - first to the diaconate and then to the priesthood, and the clothing of a novice: Br Oliver. In February, Fr Daniel was elected Provost, and Fr Robert has taken a well-earned sabbatical after over 20 years as Superior. He went first to the Oratory in Genoa and then (after the American visa finally arrived) to the Philadelphia Oratory. Fr Richard has returned to us after his time as Provost of the Birmingham Oratory, meaning that we now have nine members of the Oratorian community here. Funerals have taken place in our church in 2011 of Mary Abel, Alexandra Konopelska, Martin Moran, Mary Burnell, Paul Carroll, Basil Burwood-Taylor, Mary Selwood, Andy Sivewright, Patrick O’Kane, Vera Ryhajlo and Caja Bayley. Since the beginning of 2012 we have also had the funerals of Professor Sir Michael Dummett, Valerie McNichol, Baby Marco Pezzini and David Whitaker. May they rest in peace. Obituaries for David Whitaker and Sir Michael Dummett have been printed in the national newspapers, so it will suffice to say that we shall miss the twice-yearly confusion of the Emeritus Wykeham Professor of Logic whenever the clocks went back or forward. I would like to single out two of those who died during 2011 who were particularly long-standing and faithful parishioners: Mary Burnell was the inspiration of the St Aloysius’ Drama group since the 1950s.

  • The Oratory Catholic Church of St Aloysius, Oxford Parish Priest‟S Report 2010
    The Oratory Catholic Church of St Aloysius, Oxford Parish Priest‟s Report 2010 2010 Statistics 2008 2009 2010 Baptisms: Infants – (47) (54) 31 Adults – (6) (8) 2 Total – (53) (62) 33 Receptions of Converts: (5) (6) 8 First Holy Communions: (29) (50) 41 Confirmations: (28) (35) 31 Marriages: (29) (31) 24 Funerals: (9) (9) 10 Average Mass attendance: (885) (904) 973 (On Sundays in October) Confessions heard in our church: (6,844) (7,539) 7,384 It has been a momentous year for the Church in this country and for the English Oratory, with the first ever State Visit to the United Kingdom by the Vicar of Christ and the beatification of our Cardinal, the Blessed John Henry Newman. Meanwhile, as the above statistics show, the life of our parish has gone on, with all the individual manifestations of God‟s grace to which these figures point. Funerals have taken place in our church in 2010 of the Rt Revd & Rt Hon. Mgr Graham Leonard, K.C.V.O., P.C., Suzanne Long, Kevin Mahoney, Giovanni Petrino, Baby Marianna Stevens, Rosemarie Myles, Jean Wakeman, Brian Murphy, Tony Butler and Stanislaw Kuszmar. May they rest in peace. We began the year with celebration: for Fr Robert‟s silver jubilee of priesthood, both with a splendid Solemn Mass, which he celebrated, and then a reception at St Benet‟s Hall. During dinner on the day itself (5th January) it started to snow, and the Fathers enjoyed throwing snowballs at each other, and at those attending the meeting in St Giles‟ Church Hall opposite us! Snow became something of a feature of 2010.

  • August 2016 England Info Sheet
    Dear Friend, Once again we set out on pilgrimage, this time to a land many of us will feel comfortable in: Merrie England. And there will be a certain “merriment” in this journey, for we will travel with joyful companions, our friends from England, Leonie and Tessa Caldecott (the widow and daughter of the late Stratford Caldecott, one of the great Catholic editors and writers of the past half century), in the footsteps of the great English saints: St. Thomas a Becket, St. Thomas More, St. John Fisher, St. Edmund Campion, Blessed John Henry Newman, and the writers known as the “Inklings,” J.R.R. Tolkien, C.S.Lewis and the incomparable G.K.Chesterton. With such companions, our days will be merry, and our mornings and evenings bathed in the gentle light of a British summertime. We will begin at Oxford, the ancient university which will be our home for several days. We will get to know the colleges of Oxford, its great library, its pathways and byways, its churches and, yes, its pubs, where Tolkien and C.S. Lewis sometimes dined together. The days will include a steady diet of reflection, in the presentations of some of England’s most thoughtful Catholics of our time, as they instruct us on the history of the Church in England, the life and times of Thomas More and John Fisher, of William Shakespeare, and on down to more recent times. Day by day we will study, and learn, and come to understand what the faith has meant to the British, how it shaped their hearts and minds, how it passed through persecution and apostasy, and how it is being lived today in the very places where it was lived by these great saints and writers.

  • MAY 2018 ______Dear Friends, MARY’S MONTH of MAY in Our PARISH YEAR of RENEWAL Bishop Philip’S Pastoral Letter “People of Life” Is Reproduced on Page 3
    THE BOURNEMOUTH ORATORY in Formation Sacred Heart, Bournemouth & University Catholic Chaplaincy served by the Fathers and Brothers of the Oratorian Community of Saint Philip Neri _________________________________________________________________________ Monthly Newsletter ~ MAY 2018 _________________________________________________________________________ Dear Friends, MARY’S MONTH OF MAY in our PARISH YEAR OF RENEWAL Bishop Philip’s Pastoral Letter “People of Life” is reproduced on page 3. Do read its important teaching about the sanctity of human life, note his request to re-read “the saintly Paul VI’s prophetic Encyclical Humanae Vitae… alongside Pope Francis’ Laudato Si”, and take up his challenge: “We must act!” and “become positive, confident, ‘can-do’ Catholics”. Our Oratorian Bishop Robert visits us at the start of May; details on page 4. He co-founded the Oxford Oratory (with our Fr Dominic) 29 years ago, fulfilling Newman’s dream, and is currently Auxiliary Bishop in the Archdiocese of Birmingham. Welcome, Bishop Robert! Brother Andrew will be Instituted as an Acolyte (during Bishop Robert’s visit) as his penultimate step on the path to Priesthood. Bishop Philip is coming to the Oratory later in the year to Ordain him Deacon, and then Priesthood should follow next year (Deo volente!). Please pray for him. Our children receive their First Holy Communion on Sunday 20th May at the 10.30am Solemn Mass, and our young people will be Confirmed in the Cathedral on Saturday 26th May. Congratulations to all of them, and their families, and many thanks to our Catechists. The Confirmations for our Pastoral Area of the Diocese have partially eclipsed the Oratory's Founder, St Philip Neri, whose feast day is also 26th May - so we’ll have a 12.15pm Low Mass on the actual day, but celebrate his Solemnity in style the previous evening with a Solemn Mass at 6pm on Friday 25th May, followed by a parish party.
