Pope Benedict XVI has adopted Cardinal Newman’s motto, Cor ad cor loquitur, as the theme of his visit to Britain. The motto, “heart speaks to heart”, borrowed by Cardinal Newman from St Francis de Sales, the 17th-century French bishop. Cardinal Newman chose it for his coat of arms when he was made a cardinal by Pope Leo XIII in 1879. The Holy Father will visit England and Scotland from 16-19 September 2010.

We have been the victim of an email scam If you receive a letter / email asking for help in a financial transaction, telling you of a legacy, or seeking a donation, you can be guaranteed that it did not originate from me. It will not bring you anything but financial cost, and a lot of heartache. Any email claiming to be from me, and asking for help in a financial transaction is a fake.
FAKE - Email with the form of fr.malachylarkin@live.com or mlarkin@anyother combination, may safely be ignore. Thank you for your co-operation. Fr Larkin pp
