Dear Brothers and Sisters,

As we approach the first anniversary of the latest conflict in the Holy Land, we pray for all who have been affected.  We also pray for peace.

We have been invited by the Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem, Cardinal Pizzaballa, to a day of prayer, fasting and penance on Monday 7 October 2024.

This is also the Memorial of Our Lady of the Rosary, we ask for her intercession to help end the conflict, and to provide safety to the people of the Holy Land. I will be saying the Rosary in the Metropolitan Cathedral at 4.30pm, followed by Mass at 5.00pm.  Please join me in this act of prayer and worship.
