A joyous day as diocese gains a new priest

Pope Benedict XVI led a moving vigil of prayer and Benediction in London's Hyde Park with over 80,000 pilgrims in attendance. The media at the time described it as "#Glastonbury with God". #PapalVisit2010 #10YearAnniversary soundcloud.com/catholicchurch… Retweeted by Diocese of Brentwood

In the Lord’s great generosity, the same wages, the same blessings promised to the first-called, the Israelites, will be paid to those called last, the rest of the nations. Retweeted by Diocese of Brentwood

Petition please from ALL London schools....and in ALL London Parish churches. I saw what taking free transport to RC schools did to the rural RCs in NE Essex. @BrentwoodRC @CathEdService Sadly when in 2005 our parents wrote to Arch @RCWestminster they got a negative response. twitter.com/allsaintscsch/… Retweeted by Diocese of Brentwood

If the suspension of free travel for under 18s in London goes ahead, the cost of travel will be a major barrier to children and young people getting the education and careers that they deserve. #DontZapTheZip pic.twitter.com/OaNgb8zoF1 Retweeted by BCYS
