Look at how emotional these normally austere hierarchs are. And how brotherly, across Catholic-Orthodox divisions.

Eternal rest grant unto Pope Francis. You have been the voice of the voiceless, the champion of the poor. May perpetual light shine upon you, just as you have shone on this world.

I have recently received many messages of affection, and I have been particularly struck by the letters and drawings from children. Thank you for your closeness, and for the consoling prayers I have received from all over the world!

An invitation to all! ✉️ Bishop Patrick invites you to a free online webinar, Tuesday 21st May, 6-8PM, led by best-selling author, and eminent speaker Sherry Weddell! Sherry, who is co-founder and co-director of the Catherine of Siena Institute and the author of ‘Forming Intentional Disciples’; ‘Becoming a Parish of Intentional Disciples’; and ‘Fruitful Discipleship: Living the Mission of Jesus in the Church and in the World’ - has developed numerous unique formation resources that are used around the world, and she will share her inspirational ideas on how Catholics can explore their Mission to bring all people closer to Christ. The seminar will be particularly relevant to parish catechists, teachers, pastoral ministers, religious, priest and deacons, and parishioners who wish to know more about evangelisation. We hope and pray that this seminar will re-energise Catholics to truly be strong Missionary Disciples. Don’t miss this opportunity to attend this free event! BOOK TODAY! dioceseofnottingham.uk/event…

Today’s decision on the Rwanda policy leaves desperate people fleeing conflict and persecution in limbo. I hope the Government will reflect and reconsider its approach. Let’s put aside the politics of division and work together to build an asylum system based on fairness, compassion and the God-given dignity of every human being.
