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!

FUNERAL ARRANGEMENTS FOR MGR ANTONY CONLON

 
The funeral of Monsignor Antony Conlon, Chaplain of the Grand Priory, will be held privately on Tuesday 5th May at 11.30am in his church of Our Lady and Saint John the Evangelist in Goring-on-Thames. He will be buried in the town. While under the current lockdown only his close family are able to attend, his friends are encouraged to pray for him specifically at this time and arrange for a Mass to be offered that morning, if possible, for the repose of his soul.
In lieu of flowers Father Conlon’s sisters have asked that should his friends wish to make a donation, these will be split between the building of the new Parish Room for Goring, currently on site, which has been his last project, and the Duchess of Kent Hospice in Tilehurst which cared for him in his last few days. 
If you wish to make a donation please contact Howard Chadwick Funeral Services in Wallingford (CLICK HERE) where you can donate online or by sending a cheque. It is anticipated that when things return to normal there will be more appropriate opportunities arranged in the Parish to pray for the soul of this our brother and friend. 
The Order will be arranging a Requiem Mass in due course.
Requiescat in pace.
