The major feast of Sts Peter & Paul Apostles is this Saturday, 29th June.
Do your utmost to attend Holy Mass and pray for the Church and for the return of England to the Roman fold. Please note that the obligation to attend Mass on that day does NOT apply this year.
It is also the patronal feast of the Priestly Fraternity of St Peter whose priests serve this chaplaincy.
Plenary indulgence for members of the Confraternity of St Peter on the usual conditions.

While awaiting his visa Fr Coelho is helping out Fr O’Donohue in Ireland (Waterford). We look forward to his return here later this month.
Last 20th June Fr de Malleray attended with fellow-clergy from the diocese the quarterly deanery meeting in Flitwick, where our congregation attended Sunday Mass for several years (2008-2010), served by the FSSP.
Well done 12 men and 16 ladies who attended our two monthly groups last week in Bedford. The meetings will resume in September after the summer recess.
Altar servers’ simple black cassocks are needed for next month when we begin in our new church. Before we spend money buying some, does anyone have some in good condition to donate or lend, or has anyone ever made such cassocks? The same for simple servers’ white cottas (surplices).
