A Precious Place Of God’s Grace
Bishop Mark and his Bishop’s Council – a group of priests who assist him in the Governance of the Diocese – have issued a reflection document titled “A Precious Place of God’s Grace”, inviting the Catholics of the Diocese to be “disciple-making-disciples”, and to be focused on mission as they face the challenges of living the faith today. This important document puts forward ideas on potentially large changes for our Diocesan and parish structure. Please read the document. The Bishop is inviting lay responses to this by the end of January. We will email a copy out to those of you who we have email addresses for. A hard copy will be available at the back of the church and the link will also be placed on our facebook page. Use this website address https://www.plymouth-diocese.org.uk/a-precious-place-of-gods-grace/ and follow the link provided to access the document. If you have any queries, initial thoughts or feedback please contact Deacon Tim via email van-kroo@hotmail.co.uk. We look forward to hearing your views.
Pastoral Letter from Bishop Mark
Bishop Mark has sent a pastoral letter on the new lockdown, which is also available as a video here:-
Rededication of England as the Dowry of Mary - Sunday 29th March 2020
The first dedication of England was made by King Richard II in 1381, as England faced the turmoil of the Peasants’ Revolt, an uprising that took place in response to high taxes. The Rededication which takes place this Sunday March 29, 2020, is a personal dedication of the people of England following in the footsteps of the king. In thanksgiving for the end of the Revolt Richard returned and gave the country as a gift - a dowry - to Our Lady for her continued protection and guidance. Until the Reformation, Kings of England went on Pilgrimage to Walsingham to renew this dedication but the commitment was abandoned by Henry VIII.
Today, we, the Catholics of England follow in that tradition. As we face personal, national, and worldwide challenges today, we turn to Mary once again and offer our faith as she leads us to her Son. It is noteworthy that at this time of world crisis caused by the Coronavirus several countries including France and Spain, have rededicated their countries to Mary on the Feast of the Annunciation, seeking her intercession for the world at this critical moment, recognising that her mission in the Church since the first Pentecost is to lead us to Christ. Mary, Mother of the Church. Pray for us.
You can learn more about the Rededication by visiting the following Website: https://www.walsingham.org.uk/rededication/

Great Commission
… go, therefore and make disciples of all the nations. Baptise them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Teach them to carry out everything I have commanded you. And know that I am with you always, until the end of time’. (Mt. 28:18-20)
As Christians, as the Church, we are called to know Jesus Christ present with us, and to proclaim and share the faith we have received. Bishop Mark has offered us an opportunity to take part in this Great Commission through The Catechetical Institute at Franciscan University.
