2019 New Year's Eve Rome

Dear brothers and sisters in Christ, we were blessed to have been invited to stay with our dear friends in Rome to celebrate the New Year, and can only say that this city, and those who serve Christ living there, must be covered in what I can only describe as "Heavenly Star Dust". My family and I were invited to a party celebrating the Feast of the Holy Family, and I am convinced that some of the priests and friends attending were actually angels in disguise. Our dear friends John and Ashley have lived a "romantic honeymoon" in Rome for over 10 years, and are extraordinary people. They are professors in theology and art and tell the story of faith, the saints, art and the relevance to the places of Rome in a way that helped moved my wife Erica to decide to join the Catholic Church. Erica was part of the Church of England, but supported me and the children as practicing Catholics for over 20 years. It took Rome, the story of faith though art, and beautiful christians living in the "eternal city" to help nudge her; of course with the subtle touch of the Holy Spirit!

Anthony Erica Every Day in Rome

Whilst writing and reflecting on this heavenly trip, one can only touch upon the highlights, as there are far too many amazing people and places to talk about. I will however, take the opportunity to mention the astonishing hospitality of the Benedictine Monks. Whilst our work in the UK has included several projects for the order of St Benedict, it was a complete surprise to meet Fr Gregory who welcomed our family with an extraordinary warmth. We had an introduction to the Monastery (St Anselm's) which is the International HQ for the Benedictine congregations, and a tour of the nearby churches, one of which St Thomas Aquinas, St Francis and others had frequented.

Just completed another Digital Evangelisation website for Our Lady's and St Joseph's Catholic parish, Salford Diocese. The website embraces all of the technology, aesthetics and functionality expected from a modern digital platform. It also enables the parish to appeal to parishioners who have come to rely upon digital online channels to support their faith journey. In light of the Bishop's report on the work of the Church beyond the Synod, we think that building a digital strategy should be a key topic on the PPC's planning. Would you like to know more about updating your parish website, or implementing a digital communication strategy to help keep parishioners engaged? Please do contact us for some initial guidance - No commitments are required at this stage.We simply would like to help you in some way get started.
