Dear friends and parishioners
You may have read in the media that bones found in Jesuit care are now believed to be those of our Cardiff martyrs, Sts John Lloyd and Philip Evans. Archbishop George hopes that the remains will come to Cardiff in the autumn, and some will be enshrined in the altar recently installed in the cathedral. Their feast day we will observe on Monday this week. St John Lloyd and St Philip Evans pray for us.

Dear friends and parishioners
On Friday we celebrated with Fr Andy 40 years of his living out of the vocation of priesthood. This Saturday Lee Robinson becomes a full member of the Catholic Church during Mass at Christ the King. In two weeks 19 or 20 of our young people will be confirmed.
These three events remind us of a phrase we hear much of nowadays – our faith journey. Indeed, we all have to find and make our journey, measured out by such landmarks as these. So, let’s ask ourselves, how is my faith journey? Am I making progress? If not, how can I move on? These and related questions we place before the Lord.

Dear friends and parishioners,
In the midst of our difficulties over the last 15 months, it’s easy to forget that the Church’s calendar goes on.
This Tuesday is 29 June, the Feast of Sts Peter & Paul. Although attendance obligation is still lifted, it would be good for as many as possible to celebrate the feast day.
Fr Matthew
