As we approach Holy Week ....

...the Chrism Mass at Westminster Cathedral is a big event in the London calendar. For the past several years, lay people in the diocese of Westminster have gathered to greet the priests as they walk in procession to the Cathedral up Ambroseden Avenue and across the piazza.We carry a big placard saying "Thank you to our priests" and hand them small holy-cards with a thank-you message. This year's includes some words of the from John Paul II, our thanks, and a picture of Christ and his Apostles at the Last Supper...

Then, later tht day, I catch a train to Kent for a very special evening, as I attend the reception into full communion w. the RC Church of an Ordinariate group.Holy Week 2011 marks a milestone in the history of the Church in Britain.
