We are so DEEPLY GRATEFUL to all of you from all over the UK and abroad for the £541,256.36 raised since 18 July.
In addition, there is about £50,000.00 of Gift Aid: but this money will be sent to us by HM Revenue too late for purchase: it can only be used for conversion work later on. Put simply then, we are still short of £208,743.64 to buy even only ONE of the two buildings. Please pray that the vendor will let us buy even part of one building for a just price. Wehope to reach an agreement this week, please God.
Should you know of anyone willing to purchase space in the adjacent buildings via the FSSP, please put them in touch with us: malleray@fssp.org. The condition is to be able to transfer at least £83,300.00 to a designated bank account with the intention of becoming owner of at least one floor of the building (i.e. for 79.31 square meters, or 853 square feet, plus parking space), which could either remain an office, or later be turned into a flat, as the new owner preferred.
What happen if – worst case scenario – we are prevented from buying the building(s) soon? Then we will use your donation to extend and improve significantly our current presbytery for pastoral use and priests’ living quarters. Thank you wholeheartedly for your generosity!
You may now send your donations, making the cheque or bank transfer payable to ‘FSSP ENGLAND’ (writing ‘Priory Campaign’ on the back of your cheque or in the bank transfer reference).

VOCATION NEWS: 11 FSSP UK PRIESTS IN 16 YEARS
We have currently six young men from England & Wales in formation at our two international seminaries. Three of our deacons from England were ordained priests at St Mary’s Warrington in the past two years by Archbishop McMahon, OP of Liverpool. Those were the first EF priestly ordinations by a diocesan bishop in England in fifty years.
Please pray for Samuel and Miklos, our two UK vocations beginning their Second Year at our two seminaries. They have completed their First Year and were incorporated into our Fraternity on Saturday 20th October 2018. Please pray for John, from the South of England, who begun formation in Denton last September (2018).
In total, 39 young men were admitted into our two seminaries this autumn. More applied but were not accepted.
24 First Year seminarians entered Wigratzbad this month, our European seminary in Bavaria, including: 9 French, 4 Portuguese, 3 Canadians and 1 Colombian in the French-speaking Section; and 2 Germans, 1 Austrian, 1 Hungarian, 1 Icelander, 1 Pole and 1 Swiss in the German-speaking Section.
There are presently 76 seminarians in Wigratzbad, of 19 nationalities.

In Years 6 to 7 at OLGS, in addition to many Americans and Canadians, we also have seminarians from New Zealand, 2 from India (Goa), 1 from The Phillipines, 1 from Singapore, some from Mexico and from Venezuela.
Lastly, please pray for our more senior UK seminarians Gwilym, Emmanuel and Matthew. With Samuel, Miklos and John, we currently have 6 UK vocations in formation.
We had 19 new priests ordained worldwide in 2018, and 18 ordained in 2017.

Please pray AGAINST the abortion 10 minute rule bill 23/10/18. Diana Johnson wants to repeal sections of the abortion act (58&59), so it leaves no effective law regulating abortion. Among many changes (not to forget more abortions) the freedom of conscience for medical staff would be virtually removed.

Dear Friends,
We raised (or were pledged) £526,540.00 since 18 July, but…

Please pray the rosary, offer up prayers and sacrifices, attend Holy Mass, that if it God’s Holy Will and Our Lady’s, they may inspire all those involved in this undertaking to bring it to fruition: vendor, lawyers, trustees, potential benefactors, souls of the living as well as holy souls of the deceased from Warrington and nationwide to be helped by our ministry through the new buildings.
Join our NOVENA of HOLY MASSES, started last Tuesday, ending tomorrow, Wed. 17 October.
and on Saturdays 10am-11:45am during Eucharistic Adoration. Daily Rosary 11:30am Mon-Fri, 11am Sat. Followed by the Angelus.

The following Mass requests have been said this week at private Masses: Ken Houghton RIP, Bernard Hewson RIP, Private intention.
The owner will turn the former school into 18 flats unless we have £750,000.00 to pay him on 18th October; and please God, another £750,000.00 for the second building. This does not include the minimum £280,000.00 needed for conversion to pastoral use. We are so DEEPLY GRATEFUL to all of you for the £523,565.00 raised since 18 July. In addition, there is about £50,000.00 of Gift Aid: but this money will be sent to us by HM Revenue too late for purchase: it can only be used for conversion work later on. Put bluntly then, we are still short of £226,435.00 to buy even only one of the two buildings – in 4 days… So, what to do?
We suggest three actions. Please read this with great attention, as these are the VERY LAST FIVE DAYS.
Please do forward the link to the Campaign webpage to your friends and acquaintances: https://fssp.co.uk/warrington/priory-campaign-18-july-18-oct-18/.
Most important: join us in a NOVENA of HOLY MASSES started last Tuesday, ending this Wed. 17. If you cannot attend, please unite with us via net, or simply making a spiritual communion from where you are.
Should you know of anyone willing to purchase space in the adjacent buildings via the FSSP, please put them in touch with us: malleray@fssp.org. The condition is to be able to transfer £83,300.00 to a designated bank account by 18th October, with the intention of becoming owner of one floor of the building (i.e. for 79.31 square meters, or 853 square feet, plus parking space), which could either remain an office, or later be turned into a flat, as the new owner preferred.
Humanly speaking, this Campaign is unsustainable. But from the start we did it for God and souls. In the launch homily on Sunday 15 July, we said that the Priory Campaign was about being boldly pro-active in post-Catholic England. We don’t pray for money and stones, since those are means to an end: the glory of God and the salvation of souls. But such means are still necessary, so that we invite you to pray ardently for substantial donations to occur this week, so that we may seize the unique opportunity of buying back the two adjacent buildings, formerly part of St Mary’s estate. Please also do offer rosaries and personal sacrifices during the novena.
Through our priestly ordinations, through LiveMass and our other media such as Dowry and Facebook, St Mary’s Warrington is an inspiration to many more than can be seen in the pews, laity and clergy alike. The spiritual growth and welfare of St Mary’s community is meant also as a modest but actual witness of hope in the somehow gloomy Church landscape. We pray this novena for God and Our Lady to grant us growth in grace – and numbers, through this Campaign if it pleases Them.
Subject to the amount raised by 18th October and to obtaining the relevant authorisations according to the law, we will be able to buy and convert for pastoral use part or all of the two buildings. What happen if – worst case scenario – we are prevented from buying the building(s) soon? Then we will use your donation to extend and improve significantly our current presbytery for pastoral use and priests’ living quarters. Thank you wholeheartedly for your generosity!

See what we have to say about Catholic education, ordinations, liturgical beauty, assistance to families and more! A great thank you to Stefano Mazzeo who made the video!
Please forward the link to your friends and acquaintances: we have 18 days left to raise the remaining GBP1.2m… Nearly 1/3 pledged!
Please forward the link to our official page below, with all updates: https://fssp.co.uk/warrington/priory-campaign-18-july-18-oct-18/. And God bless you.
Subject to the amount raised by 18th October and to obtaining the relevant authorisations according to the law, we will be able to buy and convert for pastoral use part or all of the two buildings. What happens if – worst case scenario – we are prevented from buying the building(s) soon? Then we will use your donation to extend and improve significantly our current presbytery for pastoral use and priests’ living quarters. (Of course a donation can be returned if the benefactor wishes it to be used exclusively for the purchase and conversion of the two adjacent buildings.)
Thank you wholeheartedly for your generosity!
You may now send your donations, making the cheque or bank transfer payable to ‘FSSP ENGLAND’ (writing ‘Priory Campaign’ on the back of your cheque or in the bank transfer reference).
Account Name: FSSP England • Account number: 02027225 • Sort code 30-93-04 • Lloyds Bank, Palmerston Road Branch • Gift Aid number on request.
