Visit of Dario Cardinal Castrillon Hoyos

Posted on 16th June 2008 by

On Saturday 14th June members of the community were delighted to be able to attend Pontifical High Mass in the Extra-ordinary Form of the Roman Rite at Westminster Cathedral, celebrated by Cardinal Castrillón Hoyos, President of the Pontifical Commission Ecclesia Dei. The sight of a packed Cathedral, with the majority of the congregation made of families and young people, was a great sign of a new revival of the Catholic faith in this country.

“The leaping flames from the torch dispelled the fog, and the people stood in the splendour of the noonday sun. ‘That torch’, said the one beside me, ‘is the Catholic Faith, which is going to light up England’” - St. Dominic Savio’s vision of England

O Jesus, Convert England! O God, have mercy on our country!
