will be appointed as Assistant Priest at St
George’s Parish, Worcester, in January
I would like to thank you all
for the wonderful support
and prayers you have shown me over the past two years and for making me
feel
very much at home when I’ve come back to the Parish from
seminary. Having my Ordination to the Priesthood at
Christ the King was very special for me and my family, along with being
able to
celebrate my Mass of Thanksgiving among you the following day. I
am also very touched and deeply grateful
for the many cards, messages and gifts that people have given to me and
the
very generous cheque of £1,000. This will serve to be a wonderful
reminder of
my time in Coventry.
Be assured of my continuing prayers and please remember the people of
St. George’s Worcester,
where I am to begin my work in the Archdiocese. God Bless. Fr
Dominic |

Visit
to
Barber
Institute
to
see
Gwen
John
painting.
Taken from
Barber website "Gwen John’s
move to
Meudon in France in 1911 marked the beginning of
fundamental changes for the artist, in both personal and artistic
terms. In about 1913, John was received into the Roman Catholic Church,
and, in that year, was commissioned by the nuns in the town’s convent
to create a portrait of their seventeenth-century founder, Mère
Poussepin. This first commission developed into requests for five more
versions — one for each room of the convent. In this exhibition, the
Barber’s own version of the portrait—one of the most popular paintings
in the collection — is reunited with other versions of the picture.
These are complemented by a series of drawings showing women, orphans
and schoolgirls in church, as well as sketches of nuns, priests and a
cardinal — and even the Pope himself. With loans from Amgueddfa Cymru —
National Museum Wales, Tate and Southampton City Art Gallery, it
explores the development of the artist’s portrayal of single female
figures, the growing importance of her drawings from 1910 onwards, and
the inextricable links between her work and her new faith."
