"This, then is our desert:
to live facing despair,
but not to consent.
To trample it down under hope in the Cross.
To wage war against despair unceasingly.
That war is our wilderness.
If we wage it courageously,
we will find Christ at our side.
If we cannot face it,
we will never find him."

Today's breaking news from England
News here of the resignations (en route for the Ordinariate) of Frs Ed Tomlinson, Ivan Aquilina and James Bradley.
Our prayers (and our hopes for the future) go with them and with those who will be joining them.
"And the Lord added to them daily"... so I have just heard of Fr Simon Ellis' resignation in readiness for the Ordinariate. Hallelujah!
ReplyDeleteWhen will they realize that Rome doesn't want them?...
ReplyDeleteStop chucking your rubbish over the garden wall!...
I'm not sure what that means, but thanks for the belated contribution anyway.
