A blurb from the official website of the Personal Ordinariate of Our Lady of Walsingham, Coventry Group:

EIGHT NEW PRIESTS FOR THE ORDINARIATE It was a huge joy and privilege to be with eight men as they were ordained to the Sacred Priesthood at the Oratory of St Philip Neri in Birmingham on Saturday 30th June 2018. [...] The oratory was packed to the rafters with members of the Ordinariate - priests, deacons, religious and laypeople, as well as supporters of the Ordinariate. Archbishop Bernard Longley celebrated the Mass according to Divine Worship beautifully and Monsignor Newton preached an excellent homily. A very happy day for the Ordinariate. Deo gratias!


Thanks be to God for these new priests!

TRUE PARTICIPATION IN THE MASS

"I was gathered into the offering of the Son to the Father. I participated in the self-offering of God today."

FEATURED SCRIPTURE | 1 John 2:15-17

Do not love the world or the things in the world. If any one loves the world, love for the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the pride of life, is not of the Father but is of the world. And the world passes away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides for ever.
