@CanonRobinWard Wonderful! And on the same hallowed ground as (Mgr) Ronnie Knox. Laus Deo

Protecting the sacred matters.

Graffiti stickers in a church, stepping on a gravestone, disrespecting silence in a library…

Culture is precious and fragile.

When nothing is sacred, our culture is weakened and the vultures descend.

Some of us see this.

Some of us don’t.😥

Euthanising the old and fearful, licensing cutting children up in the womb hours before birth, this Labour Govt is truly barbaric and the MP’s who voted for such are evidently endorsing atrocity - we have elected evil and it is not at an end.

[Ed Tomlinson @fathereddy]

The UK where gentle Christian grandmothers can be arrested for peacefully praying outside abortion clinics but nobody can be arrested for killing a healthy baby when partially out of the birthing canal.

You can’t defend that via ethics, decency or morality that is for sure!

@Gda1238 You’ll find him resting in the middle of the nave this month which is profoundly moving. Was there today for the ordination of Bishop James Curry

2/5/76: [2/2] The lady drew herself up: "I will not waltz with you for 3 reasons. First, this is not a waltz it is the Czech national anthem. Second, you are drunk. My third and greatest objection is that I am the Cardinal Archbishop of Prague".

@johnboyne Looking forward greatly to reading this. ‘Water’ was a triumph.

@nic_lucc If anyone happens to be in the environs of Cambridge on Monday, then do come and hear one of Cambridge’s great historians deliver the annual Fisher House lecture:

@Gda1238 Annunciation, Marble Arch?

[Ninefold Kyrie @Gda1238]

As today is S. Sebastian's Day I cannot fail to mention Lord Sebastian Flyte.
A main character in Waugh’s 1945 novel Brideshead Revisited.
Haunted by his Catholic faith and family, his friendship with Charles Ryder at Oxford, and his final disappearing abroad.
Contra mundum.

A weekend retreat in a Scottish Benedictine monastery is as far removed from the modern health spa zeitgeist as it is possible to get https://t.co/k2nVTcmGFc
