About Me
- Joanna Bogle
- Auntie has learned, with mingled pleasure and amusement, that her Blog annoys some people, especially angry dogmatic ones, and entertains and encourages others of a gentler sort. This has confirmed her decision to continue blogging although Auntie's life is busy and she has duties and responsibilities which on the whole she knows to be of more importance. Auntie enjoys (although not neccesarily in this order)her work (writer, biographer, historian) and domestic duties, academic studies(Maryvale Institute), family, friends, and community responsibilities. She relishes the new translation of the Mass, the Ordinariate of Our Lady of Walsingham, her own excellent local Catholic parish, traditional hymns (especially, perhaps, Anglican ones) rain, good literature, sleep, the English coast, Autumn, buttered toast, and a number of other things too precious and important to list here. She feels priviledged to belong to a Church which produced John Paul II and Benedict XVI and she finds their teachings an inspiration.
God bless our new Pope Francis

There is already a way to contribute to the Ordinariate. Go the the website of The Catholic League and find the Blessed John Henry Newman Fund: Here is an extract from the site:
Donate to the Ordinariate
The League is now accepting donations towards the Ordinariate through the Blessed John Henry Newman Fund. If you wish to donate to a specific group, please email us and we will ensure your gift is restricted to that purpose.
All monies received by the Newman Fund will be passed to the Ordinary or the specific group you have designated. The Newman Fund will close once the Ordinariate's own systems for managing donations are in place.
