The Catholic Herald is running a live blog of the Pope's visit.

God bless His Holiness!

For the inside story on the Pope's story, go to the papal visit blog - one of our parishioners is contributing to this too, but I've been sworn to secrecy so I can't tell you who!

PAPAL VISIT INFORMATION
Those who are going to Hyde Park should come to the church at 11.00am on Saturday 18th September, to collect security passes, security wrist bands and Pilgrim Packs.  You MUST complete your security pass before you get to Hyde Park and wear your wrist band at all times.  If you have not yet paid your £5.00 then please do so before Saturday – thank you (less than half the people who said that they wanted to go have actually paid so far).   To get into the enclosure at Hyde Park you will also need to have with you some form of photo identity (eg. Driving Licence, Passport or Freedom Pass) as well as the pass and wrist band.  Without your photo ID you will not be admitted to the enclosure!  We will not be going as a group to Hyde Park, so once you have your security pass and wristband, you can make your own way there.  Please bring your copy of ‘Magnificat’.
