A community in Christ seeking and sharing transforming grace, reconciling love and compassionate hope
As my Lenten journey for 2011 draws to an end and my reception into the Ordinariate begins I have been reflecting on some of the events since Ash Wednesday. It seems like half a lifetime ago that we sat for the first time in St Agnes to have the first of many lessons of instruction […]
Palm Sunday was another key point in our journey. The morning found us again at St Agnes for the mass and then we were back at Christ Church for lunch. Several things hit me — some not for the first time. Firstly, yet again I was grateful for all those people that have been part […]
The theme of Christ’s self-giving has been a reoccurring one this Lent. Not surprisingly it turned up again on Friday as our class was on the Mass. It got me thinking about how Christ’s sacrificial love for us, demonstrated on the cross, requires a response. What happens to me when I discover this God who […]
On Confession: I have spent quite a lot of time, since last Friday, reflecting on our class on confession and baptism. For many of us these are big issues. In the next few weeks there will be several baptisms and first confessions. For me the thoughts that have been going round my head are to […]
Imagine there are two ships carrying the faithful on a pilgrimage to the Promised Land. One is a large ship, carrying the vast majority of the world’s Christians. The other boat is far smaller, a trimaran carrying Evangelicals, Anglo-Catholics and Liberals each in their own hull. Some people in the Catholic hull of the small […]
This Lent exploring something of the nature of fasting has been at the forefront of my mind. Fasting can so easily become about ourselves instead of the real objective of putting aside distractions and allow greater attention to be paid to attending to God. “I’ll give up beer and save myself some money,” or “it’s […]

Jesus answered Simon Peter, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah! For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven. And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.”

The Church in England & Wales commemorates the Assumption of Our Lady tomorrow, and Mass will be celebrated according to Divine Worship at 11:30am at Christ the King Church Langney. We’d love to see you! The pew sheet is available at the link below. To mark the difference from “green” Sundays and celebrate the Solemnity, we’re using the Missa de Angelis, the music for which is in the printed Mass booklets.
And a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars. She was pregnant and ... gave birth to a male child, one who is to rule all the nations with a rod of iron, but her child was caught up to God and to his throne, and the woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared by God. And I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying, ‘Now the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God and the authority of his Christ have come.’

We’re serving bacon butties after Mass on Sunday, to extend the fellowship and have the opportunity to bid farewell to Fr John, who is returning to Nigeria.
Peter got out of the boat and walked on the water and came to Jesus. But when he saw the wind, he was afraid, and beginning to sink he cried out, ‘Lord, save me.’ Jesus immediately reached out his hand and took hold of him, saying to him, ‘O you of little faith, why did you doubt?’ And when they got into the boat, the wind ceased. And those in the boat worshipped him, saying, ‘Truly you are the Son of God.’
