The throne room...

...at Archbishop's House, Westminster, was packed and consequently rather uncomfortably hot as we gathered on Wednesday evening for a reception given by the Friends of the Ordinariate of Our Lady of Walsingham. Cardinal Levada was there from Rome and spoke with enthusiasm of the Ordinariate, urging that it be given all possible support. You can read more about the evening here.

There were dozens and dozens of people there whom I knew, and it was one of those milling-about-and-talking occasions where you intersperse inconsequential greetings with sudden lengthy discuissions on rather important subjects...

It is hugely important that the Ordinariate flourishes.It needs funds. Scope here for serious generosity on the part of those who want to see the Church flourish in Britain and reach and heal our poor old country...
