Catholic Church of Saints Gregory and Augustine — Attraction in Oxford

First class & totally glorious. Fr Saward is a kind, Godly & Traditionally minded Roman Catholic Priest who has written extensively about the faith. This Church can be a glorious oasis of spiritual calm & peace where one can contemplate with joy Our Eucharistic Lord there present in the Tabernacle. The Traditional Latin Mass has been publicly celebrated here for 15 years& the stress on both beautiful liturgy & social justice are really two heads of the same coin. By adopting a bi-ritual approach you can bring people together 'That they may all be one.' And it enables the faithful to benefit from Precious gifts from God that have been wrongly disregarded by all too many since the profoundly misguided liturgical vandalism of the 1970s. The pro life activism & regular celebration of Exposition & Benediction are great Graces as is promotion of the Rosary & availability of Confession. Am ever thankful to Our Lord for the kindness shown to me here during my mother's illness & since her death. The Crib & Nativity scene has been the best ever- do please visit it before Christmas ends with Candlemas on Feb 2nd ! God...

Too ordinary. I wondered what Easter is it? The joy of the resurrection is...
