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!

CANON TUCKWELL RIP

Of your charity, pray for the repose of the soul of 
The Very Reverend Christopher Howard Joseph, 
Canon Tuckwell, 
Administrator of the Cathedral Church of the Precious Blood, Westminster,
Chaplain of our Order,
born Kingston-upon-Thames 25th September 1945,
who departed this life on Friday 26th June 2020 
at the Royal Trinity Hospice in Clapham.

Requiescat in pace.

The photograph shows his stall in the Cathedral, with the unfolded cappa of a Canon of the Cathedral Chapter. This will be placed upon the coffin at the funeral, and is the only time a Westminster Canon gets to wear his cappa with the train let down.
