Fr. Ignatius Spencer Passionist When people come to consult me in their difficulties, I should always wish to have them return to me after 10 days or a fortnight, and to go through what might be called a preparatory course of medicine. If they will comply, the case assumes a much more simple aspect and the cure is comparatively easy. I would have them make a clear statement of themselves of all their troubles, all their doubts, all their scruples, all the troubles they look forward to as likely to come upon them, or possible to arise out of the circumstances they are in; and then suppose that all this possible trouble was sure. Then go on for the 10 days, doing noth- ing but thank God for it altogether, and every position in detail, till they have brought themselves into a complete and settled state of peace and joy over it all. It is clear how easy a matter it will be after that to bring everything right. All is right already, and with nothing more wanted. Perhaps it will seem as if this was impossible or against sound sense. It is neither one nor the other for a person who believes what we all believe.

  • Dominic Barberi in Nailsworth Nailsworth’S Italian Missionary – Blessed Dominic of the Mother of God by Brian Torode and Richard Barton in 1987
    Dominic Barberi in Nailsworth Nailsworth’s Italian Missionary – Blessed Dominic of the Mother of God by Brian Torode and Richard Barton in 1987 (Copyright rests with Richard Barton) Tucked between the hamlets of Forest Green and Windsoredge and the heart of modern Nailsworth, overlooking the wooded hillside of Watledge, stands Northfields. The original house was built in about 1707 as the manse or parsonage for the minister of the Forest Green Congregational Chapel. From about 1800, the enlarged house served as a small grammar school which was first run by the minister and was, in 1820, known as Chapel House Academy. The house is situated along Northfields Road, the old road from Stroud into Nailsworth, which passes many of the old cottages that are situated along the spring line. This route would have been well-trodden by the many clothiers, weavers and cloth workers of the area prior to the turnpike roads being constructed along the valley bottoms. 1 Northfields Less than a quarter of a mile away, up the hill, the Independents used to meet in a forest clearing, from as early as 1672, and this outdoor gathering grew into the Forest Green Congregational Church. At this time, Nailsworth was not a town, as we know it today, but merely a collection of scattered hamlets. Forest Green was actually situated within the ancient parish of Avening and, because it was situated over two miles from the medieval parish church, there the practice of non-conformist or independent worship flourished. Quaker meetings thrived in Nailsworth from 1655 and warranted visits from George Fox on three occasions.

  • Beatificazione Del Card. Newman Eng
    BEATIFICATION OF CARDINAL JOHN HENRY NEWMAN Dear brothers, During this year 2010, probably in September, the great cardinal, John Henry Newman, will be declared “Blessed”. It is an event in which the entire Church will rejoice, well beyond the confines of our Congregation. Newman, while already a pastor and a well-known An- glican theologian and a professor at Oxford University, entered the Catholic Church in 1845 with the assistance of Blessed Dominic Barberi and, as a Catholic, he continued to be very active in various apos- tolic endeavors. The depth of his thought was not immediately understood; but he was certain about his faithfulness and conscious of the veracity of what he taught. He himself predicted that he would be appreciated only af- ter his death. In fact, his fame has continued to increase and many find him a source of inspiration. Our Congregation has had a great role to play in his conversion. Above all, Newman was struck by the prayer of St. Paul of the Cross for England. Humanly, he could not explain this inspiration; rather he believed that it was something supernatural. He knew that St. Paul of the Cross had predicted that his sons would arrive in England. The friendship between George Spencer, who would become Fr. Ignatius of St. Paul the Apostle, and who was tireless in promoting a crusade of prayer for England, further encouraged Newman toward union with the Church of Rome. However, it was Blessed Dominic who would over- whelmingly impress Newman by his sanctity, by his convic- tion that he had received a mission to evangelize England, by his fidelity to this mission, and by the love that he mani- fested toward the Anglicans.
