Do You Want to Fast This Lent?
In the words of Pope Francis
Fast from hurting words and say kind words.
Fast from sadness and be filled with gratitude.
Fast from anger and be filled with patience.
Fast from pessimism and be filled with hope.
Fast from worries and trust in God.
Fast from complaints and contemplate simplicity.
Fast from pressures and be prayerful.
Fast from bitterness and fill your heart with joy.
Fast from selfishness and be compassionate to others.
Fast from grudges and be reconciled.
Fast from words and be silent so you can listen.
Year of St Joseph
On the 8th December 2020, Pope Francis published an Apostolic Letter "Patris Corde" (With a Father's Heart) and proclaimed a Year of St Joseph. Devotions to St Joseph this year are enriched with plenary indulgences. More details and prayers are available on our St Joseph page, including the National Novena to St Joseph starting the 10th of March.
Hail, Guardian of the Redeemer, Spouse of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
To you God entrusted his only Son; in you Mary placed her trust;
with you Christ became man.
Blessed Joseph, to us too, show yourself a father and guide us in the path of life.
Obtain for us grace, mercy and courage, and defend us from every evil.
Amen.

'Whose Children Are They Anyway?'
The Curriculum and Assessment (Wales) Bill currently before the Senedd will effectively remove the rights of parents as the first
educators of their children. It will threaten the nature and purpose of Catholic schools. Act now and urge your local MS to reject the bill. Write a letter or use this pro forma. Further details of the campaign can be found here.
