The English-Welsh ordinariate gets under way
Fr Edwin Barnes:

Bishop Crispian addressing the new members of the Ordinariate of Our Lady of Walsingham, groups from Ryde and Portsmouth with their shepherd, Jonathan Redvers-Harris, from Reading with David Elliott, and from Bournemouth & Christchurch with Raymond Smith. It really did feel as though some of the wounds of the Reformation were being bound up.

Indeed a partial undoing of the great evil that went by that name, which the English were literally forced into.

These people are being instructed this Lent, I imagine to be received into the church at Easter.

AUDI, benigne Conditor,
nostras preces cum fletibus,
sacrata in abstinentia
fusas quadragenaria.

Music.
