As Cardinal Mercier said : "When prudence is everywhere, courage is nowhere."                                                                                  From Cardinal Sarah : "In order to avoid hearing God's music, we have chosen to use all the devices of this world. But heaven's instruments will not stop playing just because some people are deaf."                                                                                              Saint John-Paul II wrote: "The fact that one can die for the faith shows that other demands of the faith can also be met."                                                 Cardinal Müller says, “For the real danger to today’s humanity is the greenhouse gases of sin and the global warming of unbelief and the decay of morality when no one knows and teaches the difference between good and evil.”                                                  St Catherine of Siena said, “We've had enough exhortations to be silent. Cry out with a thousand tongues - I see the world is rotten because of silence.”                                                  Chesterton said, “The Christian ideal has not been tried and found wanting. It has been found difficult; and left untried.”                                                Brethren, Wake up!

HAITI APPEAL - THANK YOU

A very warm thanks to all those who contributed so generously to the Order's Appeal for the relief work in Haiti at the Mass on Sunday.   A total of £400 was raised in cash in the retiring collection.

Many of you took the Appeal leaflet and Gift-Aid form with you, please fill it in and send it back quickly with as much as you can afford to give.   Additional copies are available here.

As the Grand Prior stated in his appeal, this is not a project for a few months, or even years.  This work will take more than a generation to complete, to restore normal human conditions to this tragic people.

Please, therefore, continue to hold Haiti among your charitable works, and above all in your prayers.

O Crux Ave, Spes Unica
