New Auxiliary Bishop for Westminster.

The Holy Father has appointed Father John Sherrington, at present parish priest of Good Shepherd Parish, Arnold, in our own diocese as an Auxiliary Bishop in the Archdiocese of Westminster, to work alongside Archbishop Vincent Nichols.
Father John said this as his appointment was announced:
“I hope that I can help people to know more deeply that they are loved by God, who calls them in their hearts to serve others. I would like to communicate the hope of the gospel to those in distress and need.”
What a lovely thought for today's Feast of the Sacred Heart of Jesus!

Please pray for Bishop-elect John as he prepares to take up his new duties in September.
