Feast of St Philip Neri

Fr Richard celebrates his fifteenth anniversary of ordination to the priesthood today. He was one of four ordained by Bishop Murphy O'Connor at Arundel on this day in 1996 which was the Solemnity of Pentecost. Fr Jonathan Martin, chancellor of the diocese of Arundel & Brighton, Fr Steven Purnell and Fr Brian Taylor are meeting at Arundel Cathedral to make a pilgrimage and enjoy a lunch. All four had been Anglican ministers. Today there are some 17 former Anglican clergy who are serving as priests of the diocese of Arundel & Brighton.
