  • Hi, Bill, Managed to Open the Archbishop Michael Obit
    The Most Reverend Peter David Gregory Smith 21st October 1943 – 6th March 2020 Archbishop Emeritus of Southwark “Love if the fullness of the law” Archbishop Emeritus Peter Smith was down-to-earth, a gentle Canon Lawyer and later a gentle bishop, who always wanted to be a Parish Priest but the Holy Spirit had other plans. Born in Battersea on October 21st 1943, son of Cuthbert and Kathleen Smith, and he grew up in south-west London. He had one brother, James, and no sisters. He attend the local Catholic primary school before going on to Clapham College, a Catholic Secondary School in the area. Having completed his A Levels he considered the world of work. Having seen a vacancy in the local press he asked his father who Coutts and Co are; “the Queen’s bankers boy” was the reply – the young Peter thought to himself “that will do for me”. After a few years his mind turned to considering University. Coutts were very supportive when he told them that he was considering a Law degree and they assured him that he would be welcome back if he wished once he graduated. So Mr Smith headed off to Exeter University and in 1966 gained his degree (LLB). While at Exeter the call of a priestly vocation began to stir in his mind and the University priest Chaplain was very encouraging, “I always thought you would make a good priest”; the head of faculty was less impressed as he thought Peter would have had a good career in the Law.

  • CATHOLIC BISHOPS' CONFERENCE Senedd Reception, Assembly Of
    CATHOLIC BISHOPS’ CONFERENCE Senedd Reception, Assembly of Wales Mt Rev George Stack, Archbishop of Cardiff senedd, assembly for wales, tuesday, 7 may 2013 Words of welcome and introduction spoken by the Most Revd George Stack, Archbishop of Cardiff, at the Reception hosted by the Catholic Church in Wales for members of the National Assembly for Wales at the Senedd on 7 May 2013. On behalf of my colleagues Bishop Thomas Burns of Menevia and Bishop Peter Brignall of Wrexham, and of the whole Catholic community here in Wales, I would like to thank the Deputy Presiding Officer of the Assembly, David Melding, for sponsoring this event. Thank you also to the many Assembly members and staff for joining us today. Public Service is at the heart of the life of a civilised society. It is good to have opportunities to celebrate and thank those people who commit themselves in such a wholehearted way to the Common Good. I love the phrase which says “There are no such people as strangers. Only friends who have not yet met”. And that has certainly been my experience since coming to Wales. The experience too of the relationship between the Catholic Church and the Welsh Assembly. Everywhere you go in the principality you will find Catholic Dioceses and parishes reaching out into to the wider community in partnership with statutory and voluntary organisations. More than thirty thousand Catholics go to church every Sunday. They are an enormous resource of care and compassion. That is just one reason why we have been able to give £20,000 over two years to set up and be part of the foundation of Cardiff Citizens UK.

  • Proposals for Legislation on Organ and Tissue Donation: a Welsh Government White Paper
    Health and Social Care Committee Human Transplantation (Wales) Bill HT(Org)30 – Anscombe Bioethics Centre (Annexe) Proposals for Legislation on Organ and Tissue Donation: A Welsh Government White Paper A joint response on behalf of The Roman Catholic Church in Wales, The Church in Wales, and the Wales Orthodox Mission Summary 1. This response primarily addresses the proposals in the White Paper at the level of principle. It is based on the conviction that organ donation is a profoundly Christian positive act. Our main concern is that the positive ethos of donation as a free gift is being endangered by an ill-judged if well-intentioned proposal to move from voluntary donation to presumed consent. However, if organs may be taken without consent, this is no longer “donation”. This is not just a health matter but concerns serious human rights issues such as personal autonomy, as well as questions about the relationship of the state and the citizen. At the same time the belief that presumed consent would itself increase the number of organs available for transplantation is not supported by the available evidence, as is shown below (paragraphs 16 – 25). Organ transplantation enjoys a high level of public support but it also involves the sensitive issue of respect for the human body after death, people’s human right to privacy and respect for personal beliefs and religion. These are areas that need to be negotiated with care and, as far as possible, by consensus legislation. We therefore urge the Welsh Government to revisit the process and establish a cross party committee that could consider all the evidence submitted to the previous enquiries of the last three years: the Organ Donation Task Force, the Welsh Assembly Committee, the U.K.
