CV has been telling, and training others to tell, the Church's story in the public square with charity and clarity since the Pope's UK visit in 2010.

[Westminster Diocese @RCWestminster]

We’re delighted to announce that @Pontifex has appointed Bishop Moth as the 12th Archbishop of Westminster!

Ordained in 1982, he has served as Bishop of @ABDiocese since 2015 and was Bishop of the Forces from 2009-15. His installation will be at @WestminsterCath on 14 February.

[Westminster Diocese @RCWestminster]

We’ll be live at 12 noon today from the Throne Room at Archbishop’s House sharing important news for the Diocese.

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

On this Solemnity of All Saints, it is a great joy to include Saint John Henry Newman among the Doctors of the Church, and, at the same time, on the occasion of the Jubilee of the World of Education, to name him, together with Saint Thomas Aquinas, as co-Patron of the Church’s educational mission.

[The Royal Family @RoyalFamily]

The King and Queen have met Pope Leo XIV in the Apostolic Palace, to begin their State Visit to the Holy See.

Their Majesties will undertake engagements with Pope Leo XIV in celebration of the 2025 Papal Jubilee. This will include a special ecumenical service in the Sistine Chapel.

Later this afternoon, The King and Queen will visit the Papal Basilica and Abbey of ‘St. Paul’s Outside the Walls’.

[Vatican News @VaticanNews]

King Charles III and Queen Camilla met with Pope Leo XIV in the Vatican this morning as part of their official state visit. They were welcomed into the San Damaso courtyard by Swiss Guard and the hymn "God save the King."

Their meeting with the Holy Father marks a historic moment in Anglican-Catholic relations and is centered on two key themes: Christian unity and care for the environment.

This is the speech I would have given in @UKParliament against assisted suicide. @UKHouseofLords must resist the drum beat of euthanasia demanding, instead, world class comprehensive palliative and hospice care.

The numbers don’t lie, and according to new research by Bible Society and YouGov the numbers are up, from 8% of adults in 2018 to 12% in 2024.

That means for every two people in England and Wales who went to church, back in 2018, there are now three.

That 50% growth figure is the overall average. Young adults in particular are attending church more than they have in a long time. Compared to 2018, four times as many under-25s attend church. And the percentage of young men in church has shot up from 4% to 21% far above the average.

As the old certainties crumble, the search for meaning intensifies. The numbers don’t lie.

What an honor to spend an afternoon with Bishop @pmounstephen! Proud to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with such a champion for the rights of conscience, belief, and faith around the world.

[Cardinal Nichols @CardinalNichols]

Yesterday evening on @R4WorldTonight, I said that the debate on assisted suicide must focus on its serious consequences, not quick answers. Legalising assisted suicide would disturb the fundamental relationships which make up our society.

[Cardinal Nichols @CardinalNichols]

This Wednesday a bill will be introduced to Parliament proposing a change in the law to permit assisted suicide. As this debate unfolds, I ask you to play your part in it. Write to your MP. Have discussions with family, friends and colleagues. And pray.
