It was announced this week that Pope Francis has authorised the promulgation of a decree confirming a miracle through the intercession of Blessed John Henry Cardinal Newman, the founder of the English Congregation of Oratories, paving the way for his canonisation. By coincidence, the Provost of the Birmingham Oratory is preaching at the High Mass at Our Lady of Perpetual Succour this Friday in Wolverhampton for the Feast of the Chair of St Peter. The poster included in this blogpost above gives further details.
There are also some additional Masses at St Mary-on-the-Hill in Wednesbury this week as detailed below:
4pm Tuesday 19th February 2019 Votive Mass of the Holy Angels
4pm Thursday 21st February 2019 Votive Mass of Our Lord Jesus Christ, High Priest
10am Saturday 23rd February 2019 Low Mass - St Peter Damien
The fourth Friday Mass at Sacred Heart and All Souls in Acocks Green will take place this week. However, from March, this will be moved to the first Friday of the month effectively replacing the first Friday Mass at St Augustines in Solihull which is in the same deanery and was discontinued last month. The first First Friday Mass will take place next Friday at 7pm, slightly later than the Mass used to be at Solihull.
Please note there is no Mass this Wednesday at Our Lady and St Kenelm in Halesowen.
