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!

PLENARY INDULGENCE AMONGST OUR FRIENDS

 

It is ten years since the Holy Father Pope Benedict presented his great gift to England in the form of the Apostolic Constitution Anglicanorum Coetibus, a very concrete reply to Cardinal Wiseman's Prayer for England - "O Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of God..." On this day, the Ordinary, Mgr Keith Newton, and the two other prelates, Monsignori Burnham and Broadhurst, were ordained Priest, and the Personal Ordinariate of Our Lady of Walsingham was established for convert Anglicans in this land.

To celebrate this event to the supernatural benefit of all the Faithful, the Holy See has graciously approved a Plenary Indulgence, which may be gained in any church served by the Ordinariate of Our Lady of Walsingham with Holy Mass or Evensong in the Ordinariate Rite, during 2021. Thus in London those who are able to attend The Assumption Warwick Street on Sundays may avail themselves, for the benefit of their living or departed family and brethren, of this Indulgence every week. Or indeed more often.

Please note that the concessions during time of the Covid pandemic (HERE), for those who genuinely cannot attend Mass, made so generously by our Holy Father Pope Francis last March, continue to apply in this case.

The text issued by the Ordinariate is given below.

Plenary Indulgence

The Apostolic Penitentiary in Rome has agreed to a request from Mgr Newton for a Plenary Indulgence to be available during our anniversary year.  From 15th January 2021 to 1st January 2022 any member of the faithful who attends Mass celebrated according to Divine Worship: The Missal or who participates in a public celebration of the Divine Office according to Divine Worship: Divine Office may receive a Plenary Indulgence.  The indulgence is subject to the usual conditions of Sacramental Confession, reception of Holy Communion and prayers for the Holy Father's intentions.

The sick and those physically unable to participate may equally benefit from the Indulgence.

A Solemn Mass of Thansgiving will be celebrated by Monsignor Newton at Warwick Street tomorrow, Saturday 16th January, at 12 noon.

Our Lady of Walsingham, pray for England
