We are so proud of Josna, one of our young leaders, who was so moved by what is happening in Yemen that she decided to raise some money. You can read more about it in the link but here are the basics: Starting on Monday 29th June, Josna along with family and friends will be travelling the distance from the UK to Yemen over 4 weeks (all 3,873 miles!) either by cycling, running or walking. She is also aiming to raise that same amount (£3873) for CAFOD to spend supporting the people of Yemen. We would be so grateful if you can share this wonderful initiative around and encourage as many people as possible to donate. Josna should have had her GCSE exams this summer but now she is using her time to help others instead - please do your best to support her and this important cause (you can follow their progress on Strava and even help towards the miles if you like! - all info in the link) Sophy George Jomes Mathew

For those dedicated to the immense task of catechesis, it may be seen as a positive challenge because it makes them appreciate the dynamic nature of the catechetical movement, which has always had a signific...Today is the feast of St Thomas More and St John Fisher, two of the great martyrs of reformation times. They were willing to die to defend the Catholic Faith. Perhaps reading this article will help us all a little stronger in our own faith and help us think about how to be a witness to the Truth.

If Catholics are right about the papacy, everyone should be Catholic. If Catholics are wrong, nobody should be Catholic. It’s honestly that simple.
