What a great moment of grace for us – a moment of humble thanks to the Lord for his great goodness and love towards us. There are still five seminari - ans studying for the priest - hood and two men who are in a propadeutic year, working in Peterborough and Sawston. We also have three men studying for the permanent diaconate with two more being discerned. Please pray for them all and pray for more to re - spond to God’s call to serve him across the Church. November 17, 2019, saw the launch of Caritas East Anglia, with the appoint - ment of our Caritas Co-ordinator, Jacinta Goode, and with a lunch for homeless people in Norwich. The latter took place in the cathedral but was hosted by all our parishes with a representa - tive from each looking after one of our guests. There will be events during the year around the Diocese to make the work of Caritas widely known. I am grateful to all our parishes for the ways in which you support the local work that is carried out amongst the most needy and marginalised in our society. By the time you receive this Yearbook we will be about to begin The Year of the God who Speaks. This is to celebrate the 1,600th anniversary of the death of St Jerome who was a celebrated Scripture Scholar in the early Church. He painstakingly translated the Greek version of the Scriptures into Latin – the translation we know today as the Vulgate. He wrote many important commentaries on the Scriptures which are filled with deep spiritual wisdom. It was St Jerome who said: “Ignorance of the Scriptures is ignorance of Christ”. This Year also commemorates the tenth anniversary of the Apostolic Exhortation of the 6 now Emeritus Pope Benedict, Verbum Domini, which is the most important document on the Word of God since the Second Vatican Council. In it, Pope Benedict, summarised the reflections of the Synod Fathers who met in 2008 to discuss the 'word of God in the life and mission of the Church'. Among many practical suggestions, Pope Benedict called on parishes to devote time and effort to celebrations of the Word especially during the great liturgical seasons, that all Catholic families should own a Bible and keep it in a worthy place in the house, and that priests ensure their homilies "bring the scriptural message to life in a way that helps the faithful to realise that God's Word is present and at work in their everyday lives." (n. 59) The Pope reminds us that the Bible is not just simply a word from the past, but a living and timely word. I hope that during this year, each parish, each priest, each family and each individual might explore ways in which we can make the above suggestions a reality in our own lives. Finally, I wish to thank those who have played any part in the publication of this Yearbook. It is a record of the ongoing mission of our Diocese. Be assured of my prayers and good wishes, Rt Rev Alan Hopes, Bishop of East Anglia Contacts 7 DIOCESE OF EAST ANGLIA CONTACTS BISHOP’S OFFICE Bishop’s Private Secretary – Fr Padráig Hawkins Tel: 01508 492589 Email: [email protected] BIshop’s PA – Mrs Laura Theobald Tel: 01508 493956 Fax: 01508 495358 Email: [email protected] Director of Finance & Resources – Matthew Fernandez-Graham Tel: 01508 492540 Fax: 01508 495358 Email: [email protected] Diocesan Offices: Open Monday to Friday 9am to 1pm and 2pm to 5pm Tel: 01508 492202 Fax: 01508 495358 Email: [email protected] Vicar General – Rev Canon David Bagstaf f Tel: 01284 754358 Email: [email protected] Marriage Tribunal and Vicar Judicial – Rev Canon Simon Blakesley Monday - Friday 9am to 1pm Tel: 01508 495168 Fax: 01508 495358 Email: [email protected] Chancellor – Rt Rev Mgr Canon Eugène Harkness Tel: 01223 224852 Email: [email protected] Vice Chancellor – Rev Canon Mark Hackeson Tel: 01760 721418 Email: [email protected] Vicars for Religious – The Rt Rev Charles Fitzgerald-Lombard OSB Tel: 01986 893355 Sr Thomas More Prentice FDC Email: [email protected] Permanent Diaconate Director – Rev Canon Mathew George Tel: 07939 920844 Email: [email protected] Refugee Council – Rev Provost David Paul Tel: 01603 624615 Email: [email protected] Vocations Director – Rev Patrick Cleary Tel: 01223 704640 Email: [email protected] Diocesan Safeguarding Co-ordinator – Mr Michael Thurley Tel: 0208 505 4199 Mobile: 07429 215344 Email: [email protected] Diocesan Director of Communications – Mr Keith Morris Tel: 07712 787762 Email: [email protected] 8 Contacts Diocesan Web Manager – Mr Gavin Dvelys Tel: 07956 916948 Email: [email protected] Diocesan Director of Music – Mr Daniel Justin Tel: 01603 728935 Email: [email protected] Diocesan Schools’ Service Commission Director – Mrs Julie O’Connor Tel: 01508 495509 Fax: 01508 495358 Email: [email protected] Diocesan Youth Services Director – Mr Hamish MacQueen Tel: 07812 004934 Email: [email protected] Diocesan Archivists – Michael and Gill Hill Email: [email protected] Diocesan Data Protection Lead – Matthew Fernandez-Graham Tel: 01508 492540 Email: [email protected] DEPARTMENTS AND COMMISSIONS Department for the New Evangelisation Rev Karol Porczak (MS) Tel: 01480 462192 Chaplain for

  • Parish Apostolate: New Opportunities in the Local Church

    Parish Apostolate: New Opportunities in the Local Church

    IV. PARISH APOSTOLATE: NEW OPPORTUNITIES IN THE LOCAL CHURCH by John E. Rybolt, C.M. Beginning with the original contract establishing the Community, 17 April 1625, Vincentians have worked in parishes. At fIrst they merely assisted diocesan pastors, but with the foundation at Toul in 1635, the fIrst outside of Paris, they assumed local pastorates. Saint Vincent himself had been the pastor of Clichy-Ia-Garenne near Paris (1612-1625), and briefly (1617) of Buenans and Chatillon­ les-Dombes in the diocese of Lyons. Later, as superior general, he accepted eight parish foundations for his community. He did so with some misgiving, however, fearing the abandonment of the country poor. A letter of 1653 presents at least part of his outlook: ., .parishes are not our affair. We have very few, as you know, and those that we have have been given to us against our will, or by our founders or by their lordships the bishops, whom we cannot refuse in order not to be on bad terms with them, and perhaps the one in Brial is the last that we will ever accept, because the further along we go, the more we fmd ourselves embarrassed by such matters. l In the same spirit, the early assemblies of the Community insisted that parishes formed an exception to its usual works. The assembly of 1724 states what other Vincentian documents often said: Parishes should not ordinarily be accepted, but they may be accepted on the rare occasions when the superior general .. , [and] his consul­ tors judge it expedient in the Lord.2 229 Beginnings to 1830 The founding document of the Community's mission in the United States signed by Bishop Louis Dubourg, Fathers Domenico Sicardi and Felix De Andreis, spells out their attitude toward parishes in the new world, an attitude differing in some respects from that of the 1724 assembly.
  • The Archconfraternity of the Most Precious Blood

    The Archconfraternity of the Most Precious Blood

    The Archconfraternity of the Most Precious Blood By Francesco Bartoloni, cpps I should like to begin by noting that in preparing this presentation I have relied heavily on Michele Colagiovanni’s, Il Padre Segreto, Vita di Monsignore Francesco Albertini, especially chapters 10, 11, 12, and 18, and an article by Mario Dariozzi, cpps, “L’Arciconfraternità del Preziossissimo Sangue in San Nicola in Carcere Tulliano.” (See the end of the article for full references.) The Enciclopedia Cattolica defines a confraternity as an ecclesiastical corporation, composed primarily of the laity, canonically erected and governed by a competent superior, with the aim of promoting the Christian faith by means of special good works directed to divine worship or to charity to one’s neighbor. Often worship and charity are associated aims in the statutes of confraternities. Thus conceived, they are genuine and stable ecclesiastical foundations with their own organization, capable of having their own statutes, etc. According to the Code of Canon Law of 1917, confraternities are not to be confused with: 1. those institutes that have the title of “pious causes” (hospitality, recovery houses, orphanages, etc.) which have a more complex aim; 2. pious unions that exist for a particular occasion, held together by the will of their members, which go out of existence when there are no more members; 3. secular third orders that are closely linked with the religious order from which they derive their name; 4. associations of the arts and of craftsmen which have an aim that is primarily economic, even if they place themselves under the protection of a saint.

This includes the ways in which we publicly express our faith. It is very clear that, follow- ing official advice and in order to keep each other safe, save lives and support the NHS, at this time we must not gather for public acts of worship in our churches. This will begin from Friday evening, 20th March 2020, until further notice. Our churches will remain open. They are not closing. They will be a focal point of prayer, where you will find solace and strength. In visiting our churches at this time, we will observe with great care the practices of hygiene and the guidance on social dis- tancing. However, the celebration of Mass, Sunday Tributes paid to by Sunday and day by day, will take place without a public congregation. Knowing that the Mass is being celebrated; joining in spiritually in that celebration; watch- ing the live-streaming of the Mass; following its prayers at home; making an act of spiritual Archbishop Peter communion: this is how we share in the Sac- rifice of Christ in these days.

Every aspect of school life has been disrupted – not least those students who had been preparing for their GCSE’s or ‘A’ level exams. From a Catholic Life point of view we were unable to complete our usual liturgical and prayer services that we had planned for Lent in preparation for the great feast of Easter. However, through the modern technology that we now have we have been able to maintain our links to our families and friends, our school and our church. Praying together as a member of all these groups we belong to has been made possible by the live streaming of mass and other resources for prayer and reflection that have been made available to us. Communication between us can take many forms and I would like to share with you this uplifting blessing for us from those who cannot communicate verbally but use Makaton signing: https://youtu.be/va048-XxFTI As we approach the end of term CAFOD (Catholic Agency for Overseas Development) have produced a National Assembly for all children in our country.
