Bl. John Henry Newman

Yesterday (October 9) was the feast feast day of Bl. John Henry Newman. I really wanted to go for morning Mass in his honour, but I failed - totally overslept. Was out all day at Senatus and a barbeque - so a belated happy feast day of this great saint!

Here's a short article by George Weigel on Newman's Faith.

Fra Lawrence Lew from NLM has a photo of the shrine to Blessed John Henry Newman in the Oxford Oratory:



O God, who bestowed on the priest Blessed John Henry Newman the grace to follow Your kindly light and find peace in Your Church; graciously grant that, through his intercession and example, we may be led out of shadows and images into the fulness of Your truth.

Amen
