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!
