Mary in Monmouth: New Claims from Haut de la Garenne!

PODCAST IMMINENT OF THE VISIT OF THE RELICS TO CARDIFF

I took recordings of the various Masses and liturgies in the Church as the relics were being received in Cardiff on Tueday and have only lightly edited them. I was doubly glad so many people, who were not able to get in and hear the service of reception and so forth will have the possibility of listening to the Masses for Priests and Vocations, Evangelisation, and personal sanctity, Angelus, Rosary , Litany and Benediction. It was extremely crowded, but I think it captures all the excitement of that day when thousands descended on Cardiff, clapped the little saint for her Christian witness and brought her candles, red roses and many other flowers, incense and beautiful music at the evening Mass.People streamed in until the Cathedral closed at Midnight, and devotions continued all evening, with people praying for conversion of sinners, confessions, praying for priests and praying that all would accept Jesus as their personal friend and Saviour. A Mediaeval style day none will forget. And Bravo to the superb organist!

DO YOU KNOW WHY BISHOPS WEAR POINTY HATS CALLED MITRES?

Truth about Relics

Relics have often been a stumbling block for people trying to understand the church. It is no different than keeping a special photo, item or clothing etc from a loved one when they have passed on. Kissing a picture or reverencing it, lighting a candle next to it or putting a poppy by it on remembrance day, just brings them alive again to you, shows them honour and respect. In the case of relics, if you can ask a living person to pray for you, then we can ask the souls who have made it to heaven to pray for us too, Having a small item which has actually touched their body or even a part of that body brings them especially close to them. The Holy Spirit has completely infused their body, So you ask this person to add their prayers to yours up above, and sometimes there are miracles as a result, although it is the prayer to Almighty God that works the miracle if there is to be one and it is his Will.

New Claims from Haut de la Garenne!

The pace of the investigation into the sad little story of the gruesome life of some of Jersey's most vulnerable children is increasing . A leading Dorset detective has been sent to Jersey to help local police and provide an independent voice. To date around 160 former residents who stayed there in the 1960s, 70s and 80s have claimed they were chained up, abused and raped at the home.

The home was run in the 1960s by Colin Tilbrook, who later worked for Dorset social services before his death 20 years ago.A Dorset woman has claimed he raped her and at least one allegation has been made that he abused children in the Jersey home
At least 40 suspects have been identified, some of whom are now dead.

Police teams are currently monitoring ports and airports in case any suspects still living on the island attempt to leave.Detectives are now working their way through a list of former residents who witnesses have said went missing or ran away over the years.The abuse inquiry began a year ago but has only recently been made public.

Officers have travelled as far as Australia and Thailand to interview witnesses.

It is not known how long the Dorset officer will be involved in the inquiry. Inquiries to reveal the age of the child's skull alone are expected to take several weeks.
If anything was needed to prove the existance of evil under such respectability, this is it. God's blessing on all those in its power and peace in their lives.A good start. anyway to getting some kind of closure. Bless all those with flashbacks and who have been scarred by these people.

The BBC have been busy rewriting the Gospel again.Jesus said 'Ot would have been better for that man if he had not been born' in tonight's episode he says 'I'm sorry Judas'-is this dramatic license? Jesus lacked any sort of warmth either. I thought the Time Life 'Jesus' was better.You always had the feeling he really cared for people.-which he did.

Still praying for the return of little Madeleine McCann, that the Easter Season will return her too to her real life with her parents.Whoever has kidnapped her should give her back now-this has gone on too long!! Ev xxxx
