Home Mission Sunday 2010

Home Mission Sunday 2010: This year's Home Mission Sunday is on the 19th September. It falls within the historic visit of Pope Benedict XVI to the United Kingdom. During his visit, Pope Benedict will beatify Cardinal John Henry Newman. Cardinal Newman was a pastor of souls, a university teacher, and a student of Christian theology and history. When we celebrate the two historic events of Papal Visit and Beatification, let us pray for even greater witnessing to the faith. Especially at this Home Mission Sunday and always, let us be inspired by the conviction of Cardinal Newman that "...all who are baptised are called to 'radiate the presence of Christ.”
