Pastoral Letter
Archdiocese of Southwark Pastoral Letter Concerning the Measures to be put in place Regarding Public Worship and the Celebration of the Sacraments in Relation to the COVID-19 (Coronavius) Pandemic ‘Our help in is the name of the Lord, who made heaven and earth.’ Dear brothers and sisters in Jesus Christ I wanted to write to you personally as we face the threats posed locally, nationally, and internationally by the COVID-19 Coronavirus. For so many people, including those in our parish and school communities, this situation brings uncertainty and fear. It has the capacity to bring out both the best and the worst of our human nature. Working together, in the strength of God’s grace, we must seek to ensure that the very best of our common humanity triumphs, especially for the health and well-being of the weakest, the poorest, and the most vulnerable. The Lord Jesus commanded us to love one another and to serve after His example. (Jn 13: 12-15; 13:34) Now is the time for our love to be displayed more deeply and our service to find heightened expression. Our calling as disciples is to be salt and light to the world (Mt 5:13-16) in witness to the Gospel of Christ. 1 Few of us will have witnessed circumstances such as those we are presently experiencing. It is crucial that we take the necessary measures to maximise the welfare of every person and follow the guidance and requirements of our Government and Statutory Agencies. The Bishops of England and Wales have implemented changes in how we are to practise our faith as we move forward.

A People Who Hope in Christ a Message from the Metropolitan
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.

Some of the Key Aims of the Wednesday Word Include
Some of the key aims of The Wednesday Word include: to serve the Catholic dioceses of England and Wales and further the mission of the Catholic Church’s new evangelisation by enabling schools to spread the Word of God (Sunday’s Gospel) - Good News - to primary school parents, carers and their families to make real the Diocesan mission statement: “taking to heart the last words of the Lord Jesus, we will go into the world to proclaim the Good News to the whole of creation” to create a new form of lively weekly contact between the Church and parents who may be adrift from going to Church; which includes a weekly invitation to the celebration of the Eucharist whilst their child is connected to the life of the Catholic school to help school parents and families to draw closer to Christ and his Church by educating them about scripture and Catholic faith through The Wednesday Word ensuring that all supporting material is overseen by Catholic scripture scholars and endorsed with an imprimatur to strengthen the school’s Catholic ethos and promote this new way of collaborative ministry which enhances the home, school and parish partnership and encourages Christian unity in mixed denominational school families through a shared reflection on the Gospel to create a new weekly opportunity for Christ centred family conversation, evening prayer and relationships to be strengthened through The Wednesday Word a “Sunday Gospel Family Time” which is based on the Benedictine prayer custom of Lectio Divina to encourage and enable parishioners to pray for their parish school and its families, whilst also making their own fruitful preparation for the coming Sunday Mass, through the parish church version of The Wednesday Word Endorsements from Church leaders: Archbishop Patrick Kelly Liverpool: The Wednesday Word provides a wonderful opportunity for faith development and will serve to enrich the relationships within the home/school/parish partnership.

THE BISHOP of LEEDS the Right Reverend Marcus Stock
THE BISHOP OF LEEDS The Right Reverend Marcus Stock NOTIFICATION OF CHANGES TO CLERGY APPOINTMENTS To the Clergy, Religious, Seminarians and Lay Faithful of the Diocese of Leeds I wish to inform you of a significant number of changes which I shall be making to clergy appointments and to various roles and responsibilities within the Diocese of Leeds in the summer and during the months following. NEW VICAR GENERAL Firstly, I wish to express my most sincere thanks to our current Vicar Generals for the dedicated, tireless and faithful ministry which they have given to supporting me since my ordination as the Bishop of Leeds. I am very conscious too of the same loyal and devoted support which they gave to my predecessors, Bishop David Konstant and Archbishop Arthur Roche, and to the assistance they gave to Mgr John Wilson (now Auxiliary Bishop in Westminster Diocese) when he was the Diocesan Administrator in Leeds during the Sede Vacante. Mgr Kieran Heskin has served as Vicar General and Moderator of the Curia for 23 years, and Mgr Michael McQuinn has served as Vicar General for 13 years. The ministry which they have been called upon to exercise can be, without doubt, at times very difficult and not a little stressful. However, they have carried out their ministries with selflessness and great dedication and their experience, advice and support has proved invaluable to me during the first important months of my episcopal ministry. After such a long and distinguished period of service to the diocese in these important roles, I now wish to allow them to stand down from the heavy responsibilities which they have held for so long.
