Confraternity of Catholic Clergy

 Canon Olivier Meney outside Ss Peter and Paul and St Philomena's Shrine

I am pleased to say that St Catherine's will be hosting the next meeting of the Northern Chapter of the British Confraternity of Catholic Clergy  on Thursday May 10th.  The speaker t will be Canon Olivier Meney, of the Institute of Christ the King Sovereign High Priest, from the new shrine in New Brighton; recently opened by Bishop Mark Davies . 
It should be very interesting to hear his experience of getting this going and what challenges he faces.
The plan for the day will be:
11.00am arrive/coffee etc.
11.30am Canon Meney to speak, questions & discussion
1.00pm lunch
3.00pm Holy Hour
4.00pm end with Benediction.
The address of the church is: St. Catherine Laboure, Stanifield Lane, Farington, Leyland (nr. Preston) PR25 4QG. Tel 01772 421174. The church is very conveniently just off the M6 between junctions 28 and 29 (29 is the junction with the M65). Leyland station is just short of half a mile down the road, and Preston station 3.5 miles.
Lunch will be at Farington Lodge, a short walk across the road from the church: http://www.classiclodges.co.uk/Farington_Lodge_Hotel_Preston/
