Yesterday at St Thomas More...
...Fr Bruno Witchalls celebrated Mass and at the homily spoke of the triumphant rescue of the Chilean miners. He spoke of how we can see so clearly how God and Our Lady were with them through all the dark days they suffered below ground, and how we need God every bit as much as the miners did, to save us. Thank you Fr Bruno.
I think the images of the rescue that will forever stick in my mind was the TV footage of the woman waiting at the top of the escape shaft, holding onto her rosary and the beautiful image of Our Lady of Guadalupe. It was just so moving.

Yesterday, at a Church which shall be nameless, we sang Colours of Day, a Mass setting no-one knew, the children sat - yes SAT - for the entire Mass on the Sanctuary till the sign of peace, and Father teetered on the edge of heresy in his Q and A session for the children (homily substitute). But I would still rather have been there than at the most beautifully offered Anglican service and I held on to that thought. Of course, I would rather have been at St Thomas More....
