Dear Crusaders,

On Thursday, 23rd October 2018, I trundled across the M4 into Wales - to The Church of St. David, in Llanthony an ancient chapel that provided a recuperation place and a haven of peace for the tired St. David (Sant Dewi in welsh) in the 6th Century, after serving the missions across the mountains of Wales on foot and sometimes on a mule.  I was distracted by so many earthly concerns that I'd like to request prayers for the intentions of that pilgrimage together with…

yesterday on the 18th August I took a pilgrimage to the Carmelite monastery in Aylesford where St Simon Stock received the scapular from Our Lady of Mount Carmel in a vision. She promises that those who wear the brown scapular will not perish in the eternal fire. 

The friary was founded by Simon De Montfort of the Crusades who had rescued the devotees of  the…

The list of prayer intentions for the St David Lewis pilgrimage had several immediate answers: a baby was saved from abortion, an apprenticeship is being discussed, the headaches of a gentleman with a brain tumour are not related to the tumour...

Lord God almighty through the intercession of the Saints of the Reformation grant us the miracles that will save our souls . Amen.

There have been talks of starting a sort of "Companions of the Reformation Martyrs" group for several months, here in the UK, we have not officially got our "act together," as such but between us we have made a mini pilgrimages to some of our favourite Martyrs. On November 15th both Abbot Richard Whiting in Glastonbury and Hugh Faringdon of Reading Abbey were visited and prayed at by St Michael's parishioners and St Saviour's parishioners simultaneously. Several of us visited their places of…

A Post for any Mums,

I only "homeed" one A Level subject but nevertheless we seem to have got something right! Tom's first year of A Level results came through this morning and he got an A - so pleased that trawlling through the…

I repost this because a friend I know said that it helped her when I sent it last yearand St Thomas Aquinas is popping his head up in my life quite regularly at the moment.…

Tomorrow we visit Ufton Court - An Elizabethan Manor House used to hide Recusant  priests during the reformation in the UK. Please pray that we have a grace filled and safe trip.  Many thanks.

Lord have mercy on us. 

Christ have mercy…

In my desire for the mundane and temporal, I forfeited the good things of eternity. Set aright my thinking, O loving Lord, and save my wretched soul from sin.
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.

29-31st was the UK Canterbury Pilgrimage. My dear husband and I made base camp and foraged for food in local supermarkets. Our 2 teenagers completed the 65 miles. Please pray that they allow God to use their strengths for His greater glory.

As a consolation prize for not being able to do the actual pilgrimage we visited St Dunstan's Church in Canterbury where King Henry II did his public penance in reparation for the crime against St Thomas a Becket. If I understood correctly inside this…

Yesterday, I went on a reconnaissance pilgrimage with a couple of friends to try and find the medieval Pilgrim’s Trail from Winchester to Bishop’s Waltham in Hampshire – UK. It would naturally lead onto Southampton, across to France and eventually to Santiago de Compostella. I offered (...and continue to ofer!!) the aches and pains of the 6 hour walk for the intentions of the people in this group.

S.t Peter and St. Paul, St. Augustine and St. Monica please prostrate yourselves…

It seems that if you share prayer and fasting with a friend it becomes easier. I have a "senior brain" which means that I forget things quickly. If  I make a promise to say a novena with my pal I text her she gets her reminder and I know I have done the prayer for that day... I have posted Crusader novenas on other groups that I belong to the St John Bosco one worked really well and is still bearing fruit now.

V      Saint Thomas Aquinas,

R      Patron of Catholic universities, schools and students, I thank God for the gifts of light and Knowledge He hath bestowed on thee, which thou used to build up the Church in love. I thank God, too for the wealth and richness of…

Yesterday (Friday 12th Feb) on the feast of the venerable George Haydock (PPR Tyburn Martyr - 1584) I went with Elizabeth, my Canadian friend, to Tyburn Convent, just a short way from Marble Arch,  where the Sisters of the Sacred Heart of Monmatre live out a life of constant Adoration of the Holy Eucharist.  There I met some old friends including Philip Efans a reformation saint of Cardiff of a previous pilgrimage. The timing was all so appropriate I had just finished my first 9 Fridays. St…

St John Roberts O S B born at Trawsfynydd, Merionethshire, was the first prior of St Gregory’s, Douai. He was sent upon the English Mission in December 1602, arriving in England in April 1603. He was probably the first monastic to enter England since the Reformation. He was executed at Tyburn on 10^th December…

20 years ago I read "Fr. Elijah" by Michael D O 'Brien. I thought that the Club of Rome was fiction and freemasonry was a fluffy teddy bear club for adult men - ho hum we grow wiser with age!
