There were few villages and towns in Lancashire that were left untouched by the ‘iniury of the tymes’ when Catholicism was driven underground and her adherents were persecuted mercilessly, some condemned to death. At that time Lancaster was the seat of the assizes in North West England and in recent years the Church has recognised the heroic virtue of 14 priests and laymen from the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, sentenced to be hanged, drawn and quartered on account of their faith on the outskirts of the city. The prayers within this book have been collected from devotional tracts and books of that time, all of which would have been considered contraband.

Now I know only in part; then I will know fully, even as I have been fully known. And now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; and the greatest of these is love. 1 Corinthians 13:12-13 Do you have 2020 vision? If, like for me, advancing years have compromised the clarity of your eyesight, the simple answer to this question might be ‘no’! Like St. Paul in his letter to the Corinthians, however, I am not referring to our physical vision. For the Church, the New Year begins not on 1st January, but on the 1st Sunday of Advent. Christmas is not a feast for the end of the year, but a new beginning, a reminder to us all of the vision that God has for the world and its entire people – a vision of joy and peace. The Extraordinary Missionary Month celebrated by the Church in October 2019 aimed to bring us all to a new awareness of our call through baptism to participate in making God’s vision a reality.

  • The Canonisation of the Forty Martyrs of England and Wales the Cause
    The Canonisation of the Forty Martyrs of England and Wales The cause for the canonisation of the Forty Martyrs of England and Wales, which eventually took place on 25 October 1970, had its roots in the mid-19th Century when, following the restoration of the Catholic hierarchy in England and Wales in 1850, Cardinal Nicholas Wiseman and Cardinal Henry Manning, successive Archbishops of Westminster from 1850 until 1892, led a campaign for the recognition of those who had been Martyred for the faith. Just a year previously, in 1849, Frederick William Faber had written the rousing hymn Faith of Our Fathers in memory of the Martyrs. Born and raised an Anglican, Faber converted and was ordained a Priest later becoming an Oratorian Father, the congregation founded by St Philip Neri to which St John Henry Newman also belonged. By 1935 nearly two hundred Reformation Martyrs had been beatified, earning the title ‘Blessed’, but only two, John Fisher and Thomas More, had been canonised; both on 19 May 1935 by Pope Pius XI. Following the end of the Second World War, the cause, which had been largely dormant for some years, was gradually revived and, in December 1960, the names of thirty four English and six Welsh Martyrs were submitted to the Sacred Congregation of Rites by Cardinal William Godfrey, Archbishop of Westminster. All of these had been Martyred between 1535 and 1679. The list of names was drawn up in consultation with the Bishops of England and Wales and an attempt was made to ensure the list reflected a spread of social status and religious rank, together with a geographical spread and the existence of a well-established devotion.

Abstract This thesis explores the responses of different groups within the English Catholic community to the civil war, interregnum and restoration, with close attention to Catholic political theory. The English Catholic community were not mere observers of the constitutional and religious changes made during this period but manoeuvred within shifting political frameworks, continually adjusting their politics to meet new requirements. After the defeat and the execution of Charles I, members of the community made a series of compromises with political parties to secure toleration. Until the Restoration these were almost all to the exclusion of the Stuarts. Catholic political theorists engaged with the pro-sectarian, tolerationist principles of the parliamentary Independents during the first part of the Interregnum, but after the failure of the Cromwellian Church settlement in 1655 began to interact with anti-sectarian pro- episcopal groups during the decline of the Protectorate.
