@British_Airways @Mather_Keir further to my earlier post ; maybe UK should introduce penalties for poor service (like the delayed flights EU : UK has ); this could be to the passengers or to general exchequer (to improve general services ). Or at least a fine .

[Simon Grenfell @simongrenfell]

@British_Airways I think frequent travellers understand that sometimes logistics become a problem . But BA at Terminal 5 seems consistently bad . Driving economic efficiencies is one thing ; not having systems and staff for basics means consumers will choose others to fly

Today we mark more heroic Carthusian martyrs, murdered by Henry VIII in 1537, in York - may they intercede for us and their blood cry out to heaven for mercy on their country.

The monks of the London Charterhouse were true heroes of the Catholic Faith: *eighteen* were brutally executed or died from vicious mistreatment in prison solely for refusing to recognise Henry VIII's usurpation of Apostolic authority in England. Holy martyrs, pray for us!

Next weekend Pope Leo will visit the Sanctuary of Your Lady of Pompei and Naples. He hasa veneration to that sanctuary (our family and many people in Italy, too).
If you want to help him spiritually, join in the novena. You are a bit late but do!

Please pray for the repose of the soul of our confrère, Lord Bridgeman, Knight of Honour and Devotion of our Order. May he rest in peace.

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

Hundreds of millions of people throughout the world are immersed in extreme poverty. Yet, disproportionate wealth remains in the hands of a few. It is an unjust scenario, in the face of which we cannot fail to question ourselves and commit to change things. There is no lack of resources at the root of disparities, but the need to address solvable problems related to a more equitable distribution of wealth, to be achieved with moral sense and honesty.

"“Was not our heart burning within us, whilst he spoke to us on the way and opened to us the scriptures?” (Lk 24:32) - in this postlude to our Lenten series, Fr Gwilym Evans FSSP meditates on the road to Emmaus, having walked it himself.

[Order of Malta @orderofmalta]

Embracing the words of Grand Master Fra’ John Dunlap, the #OrderOfMalta extends to all its heartfelt wishes for a peaceful Holy #Easter. May this time of renewal inspire us to live with renewed faith and to be, each day, instruments of love, service, and peace.

[Order of Malta - Grand Priory of England @gpesmom]

In his Easter message, the Grand Prior says that "in a world that is marked by hatred, secularism, instability and conflict, members of the Order are called to deepen our vocations and redouble our work." 1/2

And like every year, start your Holy Saturday with the epic and moving meditation of Saint Epiphanus on what Christ did on this day of silence:
(and smile about the little squashed demon under Jesus' foot)
