The Papal Nuncio to Great Britain, Archbishop Antonio Mennini, speaking on behalf of Pope Francis, said: “It gives me great joy to be here today for the installation of your new Archbishop, especially as you have chosen this particular day of St Joseph the Worker. This marks a new beginning for you all.” Following the Gospel, Archbishop Malcolm McMahon gave an inspiring homily during which he highlighted the Hillsborough inquests as a shining example of the search for truth. Archbishop McMahon said that justice will be done for the 96 people who lost their lives and for their relatives. He said the families of the victims had shown a dignity over the last quarter century, which was an example to everybody. "God has endowed the people of Liverpool, Lancashire and the Isle of Man with many great gifts, not least constancy in our Catholic faith,” he said. “The Martyrs of Lancashire testify to their love of Jesus’ name and their fidelity to the truth.

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.
