...I went to an excellent meeting of the Association of Catholic Women at St James' church, Spanish Place.
It's been a great year for the ACW, fittingly in our 20th anniversary. Our biggest-ever Schools RE Project, reaching Catholic primary schools across England and Wales, the continuing success of our "Catholic Identification cards", (go on, look at the website), a range of new booklets on various subjects, great plans for 2009 including a Day Conference (Feb 9th) for teachers, on Art and Music featuring Gregorian chant, with a workshop on how to sing it and teach it...
Next immediate project for us is our involvement in the Towards Advent Festival, Sat Nov 8th at Westminster Cathedral Hall. We are one of the sponsoring organisations. Admission free. Some terrific speakers including Fr Aidan Nicholls on his new book "The Realm", an unfsahionable essay on the Conversion of England." Be there. Doors open 10 am, official opening 10.30 am with music, speech by Cardinal Cormac Murphy-O'Connor, etc. Displays by a whole range of Catholic groups and organisations, with books, DVDs etc on sale...
