Well, the day has arrived when I will be setting off for the next week to seminary in Ars, France to pray with St John Vianney. I am devoting my week to an increase in vocations of priests and religious. I shall bring all readers to the Shrine of St J Vianney for your intentions. I shall specifically be praying for all the priests in the Archdiocese of Westminster as well as our seminarians of the diocese. I will also be remembering those Anglicans who are making the journey in the caravan called the Ordinariate along with their people. I have had a devotion to St John Vianney for quite some time and I am very much looking forward to the pilgrimage this week. It will be especially a joy to be with three friends: Frs Gerard Hatton, Terry Martin, and Stephen Hardaker all of the A & B diocese.Due to my work in school, it has been just over a year or so since my last retreat and I am in great need of this refreshment and time of personal discernment for my life and the life of my family. Please remember me this week in your prayers as well. I shall return on Friday and will probably not blog again until I return with pictures and hopefully some stories to tell. May God bless you all this next week! St John Vianney, pray for us!

Thank you for your prayers, Father. Always needed.
I shall continue my nightly decade of the Rosary for the Pope and all Catholic priests.
