MR DAVID LLOYD RIP

by

It is with great sadness that the GB Province of the Institute of Christ the King Sovereign Priest has learned of the passing of Mr. David Lloyd, a former Chairman of the Latin Mass Society of England & Wales.

His efforts and those of his contemporaries did much to advocate and preserve the liturgical patrimony that we continue to express today in the glorification of God. David was a true proponent of the Vetus Ordo and we should be truly grateful for his efforts to make known the rich liturgical heritage of Holy Mother Church.

Requiem aeternam dona ei, Domine, et lux perpetua luceat ei. Requiescat in pace. Amen.

SEMINARY: FIRST YEAR SEMINARIANS RECEIVE HABIT

by

After having prepared themselves for a few days in the house of the Sister Adorers in Le Noirmont, Switzerland, the new first-year seminarians recently received their choir habit from the hands of Canon Mora, the Seminary Rector.

This academic year will have seminary chapel filled with thirty young men beginning their priestly formation.  Their newly-received choir habit, a blue cape, places them already under the protection of Our Lady as they begin their years of formation.

May the Blessed Virgin, protect them and nurture their vocations to be good and holy priests for the Church!
